"Road-Vehicle Collaborative
System" |
|
| [Research and Development Aim]
The aim was the research and development of vehicle-side
data processing technologies to make use of traffic
information generated by next generation traffic system
combining the ASV technologies promoted by the Ministry
of Transport and the AHS (Advanced Cruise Assist Highway
System) technologies promoted by the Ministry of Construction
to create a safer and more comfortable driving environment,
and also to develop the human interface technologies
to supply this traffic information to the rider. |

[Features of the System (Motorcycle
rider support)]
Human interface systems that supply information to the
rider in the form of (1) "audible support" by means
of a receiver built into the helmet and (2) "visual
support" in the form of icons that appear on the monitor
on the meter panel, are combined to achieve system that
supports the rider in proper recognition and decision-making
concerning the traffic environment.
The actual functions include communicating information
about the traffic environment received from the road-vehicle
communications system to the rider in the form of appropriate
verbal messages such as "Beware of ~" and visual information
in the form of icons with varying shapes and colors
and flashing that help the rider to make instantaneous
judgments about the type and urgency of the message.
The items of riding support handled by this system include: |
| 1) Curve overshooting prevention
support that communicates information about
the shape of the curve, etc., on poor-visibility
curves.
2) Forward obstacle collision prevention support
that detects obstacles like stopped vehicles or
fallen objects before a curve.
3) Crossing collision prevention support (stopping)
that informs the rider the distance to the stop
line of an intersection.
4) Crossing collision prevention support (starting
up) that informs the rider of approaching
vehicles on the intersecting road at an intersection.
5) Right turn collision prevention support
that informs the vehicle of approaching vehicles
in the oncoming lane.
6) Crossing pedestrian collision prevention
support that informs of the presence of pedestrians
at crosswalks. |
