Primary goals of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) are increased safety and situations with no stress for all traffic participants. Parking safety is improved by presenting real-time vehicle environment to the driver (surround view, bird's eye view). Bird's eye view is 3D camera and parking sensors system which assist driver with parking. It covers all angles and alerts the driver about obstacles,...
Vehicles are increasingly equipped with sensors for safety applications. Sharing information among vehicles can further improve the safety of the overall transportation environment. Enabling each vehicle to get the “right information at the right time” can be valuable to avoid dangerous situations. Information-Centric Networks (ICN) that use the notion of “named-objects” enable information dissemination...
Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) and automated vehicle applications based on embedded sensors have become a reality today. As road vehicles increase its autonomy and the driver shares his role in the control loop, novel challenges on their dependability assessment arise. One key issue is that the notion of controllability becomes more complex when validating the robustness of the automated...
Route guidance and navigation services have been widely attracting researchers and application developers due to the serious problems of traffic congestion and the ceaseless need to improve the driving experience. Motivated by such driving concerns, this paper proposes a real-time, dynamic route guidance system with the main focus on the driver safety and satisfaction. As a unique feature compared...
Vehicle to Vehicle (V2V) communication systems enable vehicles to communicate with each other and use the shared information to make safety related decisions. However, the safety improvement of the current V2V systems only benefits V2V-enabled objects in the V2V network. The Pedestrian Automatic Emergency Braking System (PAEB) can utilize onboard sensors to detect pedestrians and make safety related...
Visible Light Communication (VLC) is a new emerging technology that is being proposed as a reliable and supportive choice for short range communications in ITS. On the same context, Laser Range Finders (LRF) sensors are used for the vehicular environment perception. Compared to VLC, LRF can provide more coverage range and extended viewing angle. To take the full advantages of both technologies features,...
Both safety and non-safety applications of vehicular networks rely on accurate position information. However, accurate localization of a vehicle in a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) denied environment is a challenging and still open research problem. The 802.11p dedicated short-range communication systems (DSRC), designed for vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure communications,...
Whatever type of distraction during the driving of a vehicle can compromise the safety of not the driver, but also of all drivers present on the highway. Using the mobile while driving is the greatest examples of this problem at a global level. In this regard, a system that helps the driver improve and keep up the attention on the road, could be a solution. This paper proposes a cooperative assistance...
A good level of situation awareness is critical for vehicle lane change decision making. In this paper, a Data-Driven Situation Awareness (DDSA) algorithm is proposed for vehicle environment perception and projection using machine learning algorithms in conjunction with the concept of multiple models. Firstly, unsupervised learning (i.e., Fuzzy C-Mean Clustering (FCM)) is drawn to categorize the drivers'...
In recent years, the concept of Internet of Vehicles (IoV) is becoming a hot research issue. However, too much and clutter information received by drivers through IoV may affect their driving attention. It is necessary to provide drivers effective guide and notification services according to time, locations and events. This study proposes a Message Queue Telemetry Transport (MQTT) based guide and...
Advanced driver assistance systems are required to detect latent hazards posed by surrounding vehicles and generate an appropriate response to enhance safety. Lane changes constitute potentially risky maneuvers, as drivers involved encounter latent hazards due to surrounding vehicles. A careful study of lane change behavior is therefore essential in identifying potential abnormalities that may lead...
This paper presents a low power Wireless Safety Detection Sensor (WSDS) system to prevent fatal accidents with vehicles on construction sites. It helps providing increased safety for construction workers and eliminates back over accidents. The system employs three combined techniques which are the (1) 868 MHz radio frequency, (2) directional antennas, and (3) 40 kHz ultrasound waves. In order to secure...
The increasing demand of diverse vehicular network oriented applications (both safety and non-safety related services would undoubtedly lead to shortage of spectral resource challenge for V2V communication networks. In order to resolve this issue, a novel Adaptive CR Enabled Vehicular NETwork (ACREVNET) framework is proposed in this paper. To avoid heavy overhead usually incurred during spectrum sensing,...
Transportation problems are turning into more critical due to the complication of traffic structure and increase of vehicles on roads. Intelligent vehicle communication provides a free space to the vehicles to communicate among them to avoid collision. The vehicles share information about its speed and position to avoid collision. The main application of this paper is to provide safe and secure journey...
Vehicular Ad hoc Networks (VANETs) is an infrastructure less network with dynamic nodes along with Road Side Units (RSU). Due to high vehicle density, randomness, scalability, mobility, data dissemination is a troublesome task. So, a realistic approach has been carried out in avoiding fatal accidents and bottleneck traffic. In upcoming technology, it can permit vehicles to configure network communication...
The aspects of energy conservation and environmental protection are the need of the hour. Hence, the battery electric vehicles came into existence and are operated for various purposes. The most important part of these vehicles is the safety systems. The operation of the safety systems installed in Pedal Assembly, Dash Board, Battery pack, Motor Controller can be made less complicated and faster by...
Satellite based localization systems are currently applied in various domains in transportation for information purposes. For example in railways for passenger information, in automotive for navigation or in aviation to precisely follow flight paths. These applications are mainly non-safety relevant because of a missing certification. In this paper a development strategy towards the certification...
