Camera data generated in a 3D virtual environment has been used to train object detection and identification algorithms. 40 common US road traffic signs were used as the objects of interest during the....
For any autonomous vehicle, understanding which area around the vehicle is free or drivable is a key component. It is important to find road boundaries such as ditches, curbs or guard rails. Finding s....
The fuel efficiency improvement of a prototype Driver-Assistive-Truck-Platooning (DATP) system was evaluated using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). The DATP system uses a combination of radar and G....
Accuracy of positioning with GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) has been improved in recent years. Especially in Japan, high accuracy GNSS service, QZSS (Quasi Zenith Satellite System), will st....
Innovation in the field of intelligent autonomous systems of the automotive sector has been ever increasing. Accurate tracking of vehicles is an important aspect in the design of applications such as ....
Autonomous vehicles represent a new class of transportation that may be qualitatively different from existing cars. Two online experiments assessed lay perceptions of moral norms and responsibility fo....
This paper proposes a framework for semi-autonomous longitudinal guidance for electric vehicles. To lower the risk for pedestrian collisions in urban areas, a velocity trajectory which is given by the....
Our society is faced with the serious problems such as aging population growth, environmental pollution and limited energy resource issues. As a means to address these issues, we are developing new mo....
This study presents the design and development of a vehicle platform with intelligent sensors that has the capabilities to drive independently and cooperatively on roads. An integrated active safety s....
