OmniAir Consortium®, the leading industry association promoting interoperability and certification for ITS, tolling, and connected vehicles, has strongly endorsed the U.S. Department of Transportation’s National V2X Deployment Plan. This initiative will expedite the nationwide implementation of vehicle-to-everything (V2X) technology, which is pivotal in creating a safer and more connected transportation infrastructure.
“OmniAir applauds the Department of Transportation for developing a comprehensive plan to accelerate nationwide deployment of lifesaving connected vehicle and infrastructure technologies,” said Jason Conley, Executive Director of OmniAir Consortium. “The Plan sets ambitious but achievable goals, recognizing the critical roles of interoperability and certification in effectively implementing V2X systems.”
OmniAir commented on the DRAFT National V2X Deployment Plan, emphasizing the importance of its goals and advocating for collaboration to advance V2X technology deployment. The Plan, titled “Saving Lives with Connectivity: A Plan to Accelerate V2X Deployment,” was initially made public in October, and valuable feedback from transportation stakeholders was invited, underscoring the inclusive nature of this initiative.
OmniAir Consortium is dedicated to ensuring that V2X technology consistently meets and exceeds industry standards and benchmarks. As the only certification body offering full-stack certification for C-V2X roadside units (RSU), onboard units (OBU), and modules, OmniAir Certified® devices provide assurance to deployers that their devices conform to industry standards and meet essential interoperability and security requirements.
We are excited to announce the upcoming OmniAir San Diego Plugfest, hosted by Qualcomm, which is designed to ensure that Cellular Vehicle-to-Everything (C-V2X) equipment—including on-board units (OBUs), roadside units (RSUs), and modules—are ready for deployment.
