Information Technology Reference
In-Depth Information
play a prominent role. These systems will be introduced step by step and in the future
they will grow together to form an Integrated Safety System. As a private car is only
one participant in traffic, many developments aim at reducing the risk to so-called
“vulnerable road users” like cyclists and pedestrians.
Reliability and performance. It should be pointed out that these systems must be
highly reliable and must be able to function in every difficult situation. It is
unacceptable that drivers have to control their activities generally but have to take over
manually if the task becomes difficult. This situation could be even worse than if there
were no such assistance system because the driver might be unused to the reality of the
present situation while previously driving in assisted mode.
Challenges
The main technological challenges are:
sensor performance and cost;
fusion of sensor information;
understanding of situations;
the provision and maintenance of the infrastructure and business model.
The main human-machine interaction challenges are:
perception of driver state and abilities and his/her mental model of the systems
and the driving situation;
perception of driver's intention like overriding the systems action;
learning process of the driver;
adaptability and adaptiveness of the systems versus stability of the interaction
scheme;
general problems with increasing automation like cooperative/divided action;
keeping the driver informed and awareness of, situation and motor and
perceptual capabilities.
