The Centre for Traffic Sciences at the University of Würzburg (IZVW) is an institution within the university working on all kinds of traffic related research projects. The Centre employs about 30 researchers from different faculties, e.g. psychology, medicine, legal sciences, engineering. In addition the Centre is working closely together with administrative authorities, who provide e.g. full access to all governmental accident data bases. Research activities are behaviour measurement, human machine interaction, psychoactive substances, traffic safety, driver training and human factors in road construction. Research can be characterized by a multi-method/multitechnique approach. Large scales of techniques are available, ranging from high-fidelity driving simulation and a fully instrumented car to all kinds of ambulant and stationary measurements. Portable devices for psycho physiological (e.g. ECG, EMG and EEG) and behavioural parameters (e.g. eye tracking, eyelid behaviour, verbal behaviour) allow the same measurement quality in the field as in the laboratory. The IZVW has substantial experience in developing simulation systems based on very new software architecture both for research and training purposes. Main contractors are governmental institutions (e.g. European Union, Federal Ministry of Education and Research, Federal Highway Research Institute), research funding institutions as well as car manufacturers and automotive suppliers. Actually, the IZVW is involved in the EU projects TRAIN-ALL, 2TRAIN, LEONARDO, SPARC, HAVE-IT, EuroFOT and DRUID.
