Autonomous cars, Sensory issues, Parameters warning , Driving assistance system
Abstract
In the beginning of 21st century advanced features such as warning and accident avoidance system were introduced into autonomous cars. However, there are many issues that need to be addressed before driving assistance system can be widely introduced in the future vehicles. The theoretical and experimental research on control issues is in a well developed stage. The main challenge in driver assistance system is the sensory issues. Today’s technology has addressed many of the sensory issues with many still to be solved. Research on human factor is very important and demands a lot more work. Legal aspects of automated vehicles are very important concern. In the late 1980s and beginning of 1990s, state and private funded programs started more focused research in United States, Europe and Japan, to bring the idea of automated vehicles closer to reality. The main initiative was to improve the safety along with automation. The very well organized research in this era, along with the rapid advancements in electronics and sensor technology, contributed to a more understanding of the difficulties and potentials of such systems. Our project looks into the current research in vehicle automation and their impact on comfort and safety of the passengers. Accident avoidance and parameters warning are the main focus of our project.
