Name of Infrastructure:
Description:
The research ViewCar is equipped with a wide range of sensors, cameras and computing hard- and software. The vehicle set-up enables to develop datafusion algorithms, enables to analyse the driver’s behaviour in common traffic scenarios and the vehicle serves as a tool for validation of prototypes.
Features:
► Measuring the absolute vehicle position with high accuracy
► Detecting objects with use of a laser scanner, a radar system and video data
► Calculating the driver’s view direction using image data processing
► Measuring test driver’s condition, such as heart rate and skin conduction
Application examples:
-
Investigation of drivers behaviour in specific scenarios
-
Validation of innovative assistant systems
-
Validation of third party sensors e.g. positioning systems
-
Development of environment perception
-
Development of cognitive driver model
-
High precision positioning system based on DGPS and an inertial measurement unit
Target group:
-
Supllier
-
OEMs
-
Intelligent vehicle research groups
-
Public and government bodies
