Digital Map Data from Vehicle Probes.ppt

Vehicle Usage of Map Data Established uses Vehicle navigation using a CD, DVD or other media Emergency roadside assistance Off-board telematics services Emerging uses (this decade) Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) Traffic - aware dynamic route guidance Situational awareness for driver workload Eventual uses (next decade) Active safety products Collision avoidance Road departure prevention ADAS Applications That Will Use Map Data Adaptive Cruise Control Adaptive Light Control Night Vision Transmission Assistance Intersection Collision Warning Lane/Road Departure Detection and Warning Front and Rear Collision Warning Braking and Stability Control Assistance Increase Fuel Efficiency Digital Maps for ADAS Digital maps will play a major role in ADAS Comprehensive view of possible paths View of desired path according to Programmed route from the navigation system Inference from driver indications Driver intent input to sensors Knowledge of road conditions ahead What Map Data will Bring Prediction Capability Preview of up-coming curves beyond the driver’s line of sight Curve shape Curve direction and radius Potential maneuvers and decision making points (e.g., intersections) Road characteristics and special attributes Road type (highway, highway ramp, local roads, etc.) Lane number, width, and type, speed limit, road grade, etc. Situational Awareness (1) Situational Awareness (2) Map data provides a picture of the road ahead to help understand the type of driving environment and level of attention required by the driver currently and in the next minute. Analysis and continuous monitoring of the vehicle’s environment provides an understanding of what the driver is doing and should be doing. This information provides priorities for vehicle functions in situations where the driver might be surprised or over his/her task management ability. What is the driver doing besides driving (e.g., talking on the phone, receiving directions, listening to th
