Handfree Driving
This seminar paper is based upon the project work being carried out by the collaboration of DelphiDelco Electronics (DDE) and General Motors Corporation.It was named the Automotive Collision Avoidance Systems (ACAS) field operation program to build the tomorrows car.It used latest technologies of radar sensing to prevent collision. Video imaging to track its path, and uses DGPS for locating the position of the veh icle on the road.It completely utilized the latest technologies in Robotics as obstacle sensing,tracking and identification.
It is the Automotive Collision Avoidance System. Aimed at integration of the latest technology Forward Collision Warning (FCW) and Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC). Now the Field Operation tests are being carried out.
The radar uses 76GHz signals. Identifies the track up to 150meters for any stationary or moving obstacle. Reduce the need for drivers to manually adjust speed with Headway Alert automatically manages vehicle speed to maintain a time gap (following distance) set by the driver.
The forward vision sensor to provide lane tracking to help distinguish in-path from out-of-path targets a video camera mounted behind the windshield of the vehicle to estimate road shape, lane width, vehicle heading and lateral position in the lane. Uses a 233MHz Pentium MMX processor. Adequate road shape estimate of at least 75 meters ahead of the vehicle
Road map database fed to the CPU of the vehicle. The information from the DGPS + road map database fused in DATAFUSION SYSTEM.
It provide data of path and position of the vehicle.

Data from ACC + radar sensor fused and fed to processor. Processor data controls actuators.
For speed less than cruise speed, the driver is informed.

Conveniently manages vehicle speed and headway gap. Cruise control more useable in most traffic conditions resulting in a more relaxed driving experience. Operates under wide range of environmental conditions (dirt, ice, day, night, rain, or fog). Low false alarm rate.

Radar-based sensing for optimal performance Sensor hidden behind front grille or fascia Best available detection and tracking performance Manages vehicle speed and headway gap using throttle control and limited braking Excellent following distance and speed control

Robotics is the part of Electronics Engineering , which exploits each aspect of Electronics and Mechanical Engineering. The development of robotics have led to the ACAS program. On the completion of this program vehicles will change the phase of driving; a hand-free driving.
