OmniAir Maryland Plugfest & Emerging Technologies Workshop

OmniAir Consortium® invites you to the premier event for connected-vehicle testing and advanced transportation collaboration. The OmniAir Maryland Plugfest is hosted in partnership with Johns Hopkins University and in collaboration with the Maryland Transportation Authority and Maryland’s Connected and Automated Vehicle Program.

The Plugfest combines hands-on V2X testing with a full-day workshop focused on AI, quantum computing, and cybersecurity, and their growing impact on V2X initiatives, including tolling.

This event brings together global leaders in connected and automated transportation, including representatives from academia, federal, state, and local agencies, automotive OEMs, device manufacturers, SCMS and PKI security providers, test laboratories, and test equipment providers.

• June 1–2: V2X Bench Testing and Technical Deep Dives
• June 3: Advanced Transportation Workshop
• June 4–5: V2X Bench Testing and Technical Deep Dives

For organizations conducting testing, participation demonstrates a strong commitment to C-V2X conformance and interoperability. Attendees work directly with leading test laboratories, equipment providers, and industry experts to validate performance, resolve issues in real time, and prepare devices for certification and deployment.

The workshop and deep-dive sessions are designed to go beyond testing and focus on what lies ahead for connected transportation.

You will gain:

• Practical insights into emerging technologies
  Learn how AI, Quantum Computing, and advanced Cybersecurity approaches are being evaluated for transportation systems, V2X communications, and digital infrastructure.
• Technical clarity on standards, security, and deployment challenges
  Hear directly from experts shaping V2X standards, SCMS and PKI frameworks, and secure system architectures.
• Direct access to decision-makers and technical leaders
  Engage in focused discussions with OEMs, agencies, researchers, and solution providers working on real-world deployments.
• Live demonstrations and real-world lessons learned
  Observe V2X demonstrations and hear candid insights from recent pilots, deployments, and certification efforts.
• Actionable takeaways for near-term planning
  Understand how emerging technologies will affect product roadmaps, certification strategies, and infrastructure investments over the next three to five years.
