An overview is given on state-of-the-art development and future trends in integrating sensing, actuation and control functions into transportation vehicles. After categorizing the wide range of smart materials and systems various applications from the aerospace, automotive and railway sector are described, which are either already in use or very much considered for application. This includes systems for damage monitoring and situation awareness using smart sensors and antennae, autonomous driving based on smart cameras, thermal and electrical controlled actuation in engines and for comfort improvement, systems for vibration damping and noise cancellation and much more. Technology gaps to be closed in future research activities are described.
