Advanced Driver Assistance System

Self-driving cars need ground penetrating radar, says WaveSense Founded in 2017 with the vision to make self-driving navigation weather-proof, on any road and in any condition startup WaveSense sees ground-penetrating radar (GPR) as a failsafe complement to existing mapping and navigation hardware.   The pitch: current systems exclusively rely on above ground sensors like GPS, lidar and cameras to identify the exact position of the vehicle, but those can be confused and handicapped by poor visibility issues and adverse...

Intelligent Speed Adaptation (ISA) using SafetyNex Intelligent speed adaptation (ISA) is a new field of ADAS. Indeed, after deploying "reactive ADAS" (emergency braking on automatic detection), it seems interesting to give the car the ability to "understand" the road scene context and then to adapt its speed in anticipation. The aim is to minimize the number of emergency situations to face. It is exactle what a good driver does when approaching an intersection with priority to the other road : you slow down a little (and it is not... [Lire la suite]

Drones and driverless tractors – is this the future of farming? On 7 July 1964 the Daily Express published a satirical cartoon, a send-up of Britain’s farming community as it struggled to adapt from its old, rustic world to a new, technological one. The cartoon was set at a Royal Show at a point in the near future. One side of the frame featured a rowdy beer tent, reserved for “drivers and drivers only”. On the other was a marquee with the sign: “Order your Radio-Controlled Tractor”. A driver leans over to his beer-slugging... [Lire la suite]

Test and Validation of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems Automated Search for Critical Scenarios The amount of software used to implement vehicle functions continuous to grow rapidly and will double once more within the next decade. Established test and validation processes can hardly keep pace with this growth rate. In this context, autonomous testing, a technique that evolved substantially in the recent years, gains importance as an enhancement to the traditional testing process. Testing on a real test drive or with handwritten... [Lire la suite]

ADAS AND AUTONOMOUS DRIVING TECHNOLOGY IN TRUCKS AND COMMERCIAL VEHICLES 1. ADAS IN COMMERCIAL VEHICLES 1.1. Background A wide variety of advanced driver assistance systems (ADASs) have enjoyed impressive growth in consumer vehicles, progressing from being the preserve of luxury vehicles to being offered in sub-US$500 packages by mass-market players such as Toyota. Simultaneously, the capacities of these systems have expanded, with combined functions allowing the first glimpses at automation in production vehicles. At the... [Lire la suite]

ADAS: Meaning and Indian context Advanced Driver Assistance Systems or ADAS are the systems that are designed to help the driver by using a safe human-machine interface. They are aimed at increasing road and car safety. In other words, Advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) are systems developed to automate/adapt/enhance vehicle systems for safety and better driving. Safety features are designed to avoid collisions and accidents by offering technologies that alert the driver to potential problems, or to avoid collisions by... [Lire la suite]

Asia-Pacific Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) Market (2016 - 2022) NEW YORK, Nov. 16, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) are electronic components installed in vehicles, which present an intelligent driving experience to the driver. These systems comprise of unique sensors such as ultrasonic, image, RADAR, LiDAR, infrared and LASER. Ongoing industrialization efforts, increasing manufacturing output and rising standards of living are the key factors that would propel the growth of the... [Lire la suite]

The deployment of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems in Europe Introduction Road transport is an essential service in society, but the burden of traffic crashes and Pollution is immense. European data show that road accidents in the EU countries cause about 250,000 seriously injured people every year, with 28,000 fatalities in 2012 (Kearns & Kidd, 2013). US data in addition, illustrate that automobile crashes led to 34,080 fatalities in 2012 (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), 2013), where about 90% of the... [Lire la suite]
