SMARTI ETN animation
Project
This animation is about SMARTI ETN, Sustainable Multifunctional Automated and Resilient Transport Infrastructures. We created it in collaboration with Davide Lo Presti, coordinator of the SMARTI ETN Network. The objective of the animation is to show how our transport systems are dealing with new challenges. Indeed, our world is rapidly changing population is growing, mobility and business create greater traffic volumes, whilst climate change and extreme weather events are more and more threatening. Faced with new problems, the SMARTI ETN is looking for innovative solutions. SMART solutions, meaning Sustainable, Multifunctional, Automated and Resilient. Check out the animation to know more!
