C-ITS = Collaborative-Intelligent Transportation Systems
They are working together to create the Connected Motorcycle Consortium. This is part of the Intelligent Transport System, an initiative to "enhance the safety, security, and efficiency in all transport systems". Most of the work done by ITS groups to date has ignored bikes. BMW, Honda, and Yamaha want to change that. They expect to add C-ITS features starting in 2020.
Cars now have systems that will brake automatically so you don't run over little Johnny backing out of the driveway or when you are too busy texting to see the rush hour traffic ahead of you just slowed from 75 to 15mph. There's also lane departure and blind spot detection, etc. Traffic info sent to your GPS so you can re-route to a faster way home is another example.
It looks like one of the first things the consortium is working in is vehicle-to-vehicle communication to enhance blind-spot detection in cars (maybe that includes bikes telling cars not to turn left as the bike is entering an intersection).
From what I've read so far (not much), there aren't any plans to control the motorcycle operation - the dynamics are just to complex for that.
Increased cost and complexity will likely be issues, making some of us long for the good old days of leaky Harleys and Triumphs silenced by Lucas, the Prince of Darkness.
Some good stuff, some not so good stuff, but it's the future, and it's on its way.
