Intelligent transport systems

Treball desenvolupat dins el marc del programa 'European Project Semester'.This report contains information about Intelligent Transport Systems and testing scenarios on IDIADA´s proving ground. Since the automotive industry is rapidly moving in the direction of advanced active safety, Intelligent Transport System (ITS) and Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) are two the keys for enabling the European Road Safety Project to reach the goal of 50% less car crashes per year by 2010. Therefore, the following systems have been researched: ITS – Communication between On Board Units (OBU) and Road Side Units (RSU) ADAS – Detecting Obstacles (Pedestrian and Car) HMI – Human Machine Interface (Interaction between the driver and ITS/ADAS) With the results of this research, testing methods and protocols have been developed in all three of these systems according to ISO standards. Finally, a comprehensive offer about testing services on IDIADA´s proving ground is explained
