Vehicle To Infrastructure Communication

Social interactions were always part of the driving task, but the introduction of vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure communication opens up new possibilities for cooperative interactive driving. It enables drivers to coordinate their maneuvers cooperatively with other involved traffic users. To ensure drivers’ acceptance of such automated systems it is necessary to understand the underlying mechanisms of human cooperation in traffic. In this experiment, we investigate potential influencing factors on the willingness to behave cooperatively in a lane change situation on a highway. In a video-based study, we manipulated the costs of cooperation, the situation’s criticality for the lane-changing vehicle and the way in which the intention to change the lane was indicated. Cooperative behavior is influenced by lower costs, a higher situation’s criticality and by signaling the intention to lane change. These results offer insights that may be used in the developing process of Human Machine Interfaces (HMI) for cooperatively interacting vehicles

Vehicle To Infrastructure Communication

Vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure communication offer new possibilities for cooperatively interactive driving. It enables vehicles to carry out maneuvers cooperatively with other vehicles. However, these maneuvers have to be predictable and understandable to a human driver to prevent the driver from intervening with the automation. In a video-based study, we investigated potential influencing factors on the willingness to behave cooperatively in an on-ramp situation on a highway: the situation’s criticality for the lane-changing vehicle, the way the intention to change the lane was indicated and the scope of action. Moreover, we asked participants to rate their perceived criticality. Participants preferred to change lanes to the left or decelerate to let the other vehicle merge in front of them. If a lane change was not possible, participants rated the situation as more critical. These results are useful for the developing process of human-machine interfaces for cooperatively interacting vehicles.

Abstract These days population are taking a risk in their drive and in no time dangers are happening, and loosing lives by doing tiny wrongs when on drive near restricted zones. To escape these accidents to make population risk free traffic department are introducing signboards. But then again with the ignorance of the people, dangers are happening again, so “Li-Fi technology” is being used here to decrease the count of accidents. The transmission takes place with the help of LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes).Text, audio and video can also be transmitted with the help of this li-fi. The transmission is done when the light turns on and off. When this is compared to Wi-Fi it has many advantages like this light is not harmful to human body. The Transmission takes place in the form of zeroes and ones. Therefore to avoid accidents we suggested an intelligent, adaptable, and efficient model that utilizes Machine Learning techniques. The proposed system helps in vehicle to vehicle and vehicle to Infrastructure communication systems.

This manuscript deals with V2V/V2I (Vehicle-to-Vehicle and Vehicle-to-Infrastructure) communication systems developed for smart city applications, with the aim to provide new services and tools for making driving safer and improving the human lifestyle. The considered systems can be supported by suitable software applications for making the services more accessible. In this context, research groups and automotive companies are currently developing systems against children abandonment in unattended vehicles and are installing them on new car models. In this paper, an innovative Arduino-based control system against children abandonment in cars is described. It introduces new functionalities respect to systems reported in literature or already on the market, in order to improve safety and reliability. The proposed system integrates a mobile app, which gives the possibilities of receiving alert or status messages, along with images directly acquired from car cockpit. In addition, the app allows to remotely control several car functionalities, such as horn activation, windows lowering and doors locking/unlocking.
