Fuji Soft Releases Dynamic Map 2.0, an Information Platform for Autonomous Driving, Free on GitHub

Fuji Soft Incorporated announced that Dynamic Map 2.0, an information and communications platform connecting autonomous vehicles with road infrastructure, developed by a Nagoya University research consortium in which the company participates, was released free of charge on GitHub on May 15, 2026. The platform is intended to improve the safety of autonomous driving on ordinary roads, where blind spots have been a major challenge, and to support social implementation by standardizing previously fragmented communications specifications. Japan has many intersections with poor visibility on ordinary roads, and autonomous vehicles relying only on onboard sensors must drive at low speeds to prepare for sudden entries from blind spots, limiting the areas where they can travel safely and smoothly. In addition, communications specifications and systems have been individually optimized for each demonstration project, creating issues around compatibility and scalability. Dynamic Map 2.0 connects vehicles, roadside units, and the cloud, supporting information exchange through a common interface independent of wireless communication methods. It can handle object information and free-space information from roadside sensors, traffic signal status and remaining time, and high-definition road maps required for autonomous driving. By standardizing information specifications, the platform improves efficiency in infrastructure-side software development and helps reduce the cost of introducing cooperative autonomous driving for municipalities and operators. The platform has already been used and validated in a Level 4 autonomous driving project in Kashiwa, Chiba Prefecture. Going forward, Fuji Soft will provide technical support to municipalities and businesses considering the platform, from requirements definition and system development to testing and deployment, positioning Dynamic Map 2.0 as a common development foundation for infrastructure-cooperative mobility and aiming to build an ecosystem open to diverse participants.
