Emerging Technologies Compendium - Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration

The American Transportation Research Institute (ATRI), in conjunction with FMCSA, is currently compiling an Emerging Technologies Compendium as a follow-up to the 2004 FMCSA-sponsored Field Operational Test. The compendium is designed to gather information about emerging security products that will be entering the commercial market within the next 14 months and will be used for government purposes ONLY. This information will not be shared with any other group. This information will not be produced in a web-based format but rather will contribute to a report for FMCSA. We ask that you please complete the form below if you would like to be included in the Emerging Technologies Compendium. If you have any questions, please contact fot@fmcsa.dot.gov.

Disclaimer: Companies should not provide any confidential and/or proprietary information regarding their product or service that can not be distributed to the general public. The companies and/or products or services listed in this compendium are included because they have been described by the vendor as offering similar functionality to the technologies originally tested as part of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration's Hazmat Safety and Security Field Operational Test. The authors and sponsors will not independently verify the accuracy of the vendor's descriptions and thus make no representations as to the functional similarity. Inclusion of specific company products or services in this Compendium is not, and should not be construed as, an endorsement by the authors (or sponsors) of those products or services.
