The Intelligent Transportation Laboratory (ITL) is a collaborative facility dedicated to research and teaching in modern transportation engineering, with a particular focus on ground vehicles. The ITL is shared by students, staff, and faculty who work together to manage its resources.

Specialty research areas include:

• Vehicle dynamics and control
• Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS)
• Vehicle testing and test methods development
• Tire mechanics and smart tires
• Powertrain dynamometer testing
• Pass-by noise validation
• Vehicle ride quality and structural feel
• Human perception of vibration

Equipment resident in the ITL includes portable multi-channel data acquisition systems, sensors, and Controller Area Network (CAN) interface hardware. These measurement tools enable physical vehicle studies and component bench tests, for the purpose of investigating a multiplicity of concerns in transportation performance.
