Rear-end Collision Prevention Using Mobile Devices
Portable devices like tablet PCs and smart phones are being used more often these days within the vehicular environment. Drivers use them for listening to music, navigation assistance, accessing internet and also mainly for speaking over the phone. Most of these features are made possible in the portable devices due to the availability and use of many sensors such as global positioning system (...
متن کاملCollision Warning Timing, Driver Distraction, and Driver Response to Imminent Rear-End Collisions in a High-Fidelity Driving Simulator
Rear-end collisions account for almost 30% of automotive crashes. Rear-end collision avoidance systems (RECASs) may offer a promising approach to help drivers avoid these crashes. Two experiments performed using a high-fidelity motion-based driving simulator examined driver responses to evaluate the efficacy of a RECAS. The first experiment showed that early warnings helped distracted drivers r...
متن کاملHuman Performance Models and Rear-End Collision Avoidance Algorithms
Collision warning systems offer a promising approach to mitigate rear-end collisions, but substantial uncertainty exists regarding the joint performance of the driver and the collision warning algorithms. A simple deterministic model of driver performance was used to examine kinematics-based and perceptual-based rear-end collision avoidance algorithms over a range of collision situations, algor...
متن کاملRear-End Collision–Warning System Design and Evaluation via Simulation
The design of an innovative rear-end collision-warning system was evaluated for effectiveness. The crash scenario involves a lead vehicle not moving (LVNM) in one lane of a straight, dry, paved arterial road and a following vehicle approaching in the same lane. The LVNM has a rearfacing sensor and is equipped with the rear crash-warning system, which allows the LVNM to flash its brake lights or...
متن کاملRelationship of head restraint positioning to driver neck injury in rear-end crashes.
Insurance claims were examined for evidence of neck injuries to drivers of passenger cars struck in the rear. Neck injury rates were significantly lower for male drivers, elderly drivers, and drivers in less severe crashes. Even after accounting for differences in driver demographics and crash severity, neck injury rates were significantly lower for drivers of cars with head restraints that wer...
