Audience: Bus and coach operators
Speaker: Mr. Ayhan Önal
Story:
Cyber security is important for all sectors in the world. In the area of automated and connected vehicles, cybersecurity is a critical concern for interconnected networks as transportation infrastructure continues to expand from isolated nodes to large nodes. The group most exposed to this situation is the buses, which are expected to complete the fastest autonomous transition process in the sector.
Autonomous(2,3,4,5) and connected vehicles are fast becoming a megacomputer on wheels, with massive processing power, large data storage, and multiple communication channels. OTA, which is a term we hear more, creates an environment that can lead to more attacks. Almost all functional subsystems of current and next generation buses operate in connection with internet networks. This situation reveals possible threats.
Cyber security projects should be developed on buses and integrated into buses as an integral part of the design, in order to anticipate and deal with attacks, as buses carry a large amount of passengers and cargo, and create the transportation infrastructure by incorporating an ever-increasing number of different technologies (potential attack vectors).
Audience: all

Story:
GSR (General Safety Regulation-EU) will make many new technologies mandatory for vehicles. The new GSR will enter into force this year for vehicles that will apply for type approval for the first time. After 2024, it will be mandatory on all new vehicles sold.
More than 10 technologies are applicable for Bus and Truck manufacturers. This also means, need to integrate more than 10 new security products into vehicles. Selection of suppliers for each, preparation of relevant documents, homologation and R&D studies, and planning of integration studies to ensure the best customer acceptance.
Target Audience:
Bus and Truck Manufacturers and their R&D, Purchasing and Product development departments.
Optibus - How to ensure a successful transition to electric buses: Software infrastructure strategies
Speaker: Ms Sinem Tirkes, Regional Director Turkey
Story: Scheduling is difficult, and EVs make it even harder.
When planning for EV adoption, many transportation providers focus on vehiicles, charging stations, and other hardware. But transitioning to and operating an electric fleet poses many complex scheduling challenges. You must be able to account for issues like charging times and locations, multiple charging profiles and charging stations, fluctuating energy costs, battery ranges, weather, and topography. That’s why software infrastructure for EV operations is just as important as EVs and charging stations.
This session reviews best practices for deploying electric buses and managing the transition from diesel to electric vehicles, scheduling for mixed fleets and all-electric ones, managing risks and costs, and how to handle range anxiety, peak vehicle requirements, and slow vs. fast charging.
Optibus will demo its EV management module, which is used by clients worldwide, including MetBus in Santiago, Chile (the largest EV fleet in the Americas), AVTA (the first 100% electric fleet in the US), and Stagecoach (the largest bus & coach operator in the UK).
Target audience: Public transportation operators, private operators, and transit agencies with electric buses and/or looking to transition to eBuses
Speaker: Mr. Erhan Demircioğlu, Co-Founder
Winner of 2nd prize in the 10th "Future of Automotive Design Competition", organised by OIB.
Story:
Increasing environmental pollution and the possibility of depletion of fossil fuels in the near future increase the tendency to alternative energy vehicles. Today, hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, one of the alternative energy vehicles, stand out with their efficient and environmentally compatible technologies.
HydroBorPEM Fuel Cell Technologies manufactures 6 times more efficient composite fuel cell membrane and fuel cell stack for hydrogen fuel cell vehicles.
Target Audience: Vehicle manufacturers and all companies working on fuel cell engines
Speaker: Mr Atalay Hüryaşar, Marketing Specialist
Story: Did you know that the rear view mirrors are the most changed part after the bumper?
It has many disadvantages as well as benefits. Night vision difficulty, blind spots, reflection, harsh weather conditions etc. I would like to tell the story of how we solved these problems and reduced the operational cost by increasing the investment cost.
Let's take a closer look at how technology positively affects our daily lives together.
Target audience: operators and vehicle manufacturers
Speaker: Dr. Ganesh Raj Joshi, Environment Unit
Story: Public transport, particularly, buses play a crucial role to provide better transport facility for all sectors of society. Making bus transport system safe, smart, low-carbon and resilient is essential for suitable development. This presentation highlights how a smart bus system can transform our cities and communities and contribute to international agendas and agreements, including SDGs, Paris Agreement, New Urban Agenda, and others. This presentation further focuses on how integrated and efficient public smart bus technologies such as automatic vehicle location (AVL), automated stop announcements (ASA), computer-aided dispatch (CAD), live look-in capability for camera-equipped buses, transit apps and GPS system can bring number of benefits such as increase safety and security, efficiency and comfort, enhanced accessibility and connectivity through clean, healthy and environment friendly transit that not only helps to reduce congestion, air pollution and traffic accidents but also enhanced livability and sustainability of cities and communities.
Target audience: Mobility designers and decision makers
Speaker: Mr. Alpay Lök, Vice Chairman
Story: Winter Tire Legislation Improvement
