California PATH, Convergence Partner

The goal of the partnership will be to provide synergy and communications between academia, public institutions, automobile manufacturers and technology companies in the connected and autonomous vehicle industry, a press release states.

According to the partnership, the alliance between Convergence and PATH and its website, magazines and newsletters will serve a role in the connected and autonomous vehicle industry by providing a common platform for the stakeholders to share information and promote products to the engineering community and the public.

"For over three decades, PATH has held the pole-position in intelligent transportation systems; pioneering new technologies and continually advocating for the use of innovation to improve transportation safety and mobility," said Tom West, co-director of PATH. "At this point in the evolution from research to implementation, we fully understand the need to engage our technology partners at a deeper level. An alliance with Convergence will help further our mandate to develop and apply emerging ITS technologies to connected vehicle development."
