Societal Problem
The slow decision making ability
and reaction time of drivers to
adapt to changing traffic patterns in
fast pace driving
7/26/2016
4
Statistics



7/26/2016
Rear end collisions are the most
common
Over two million accidents per
year are reported
Millions of dollars in accident
cost

Statistics



7/26/2016
70% of new cars will have
standard cruise control installed
55 Million cars are manufactured
each year
38.5 Million cars will be equipped
with cruise control
7
Goal
Assist all drivers in maximum
use of cruise control for
convenience and safety
7/26/2016

Objectives



7/26/2016
Warn driver of impending collision
Increase drivers decision making in
impending dangers
Increase the efficiency of cruise
control systems

Solution
The Intelligent Cruise
Control



7/26/2016
To modify current cruise control by
adding a radar system
able to detect the speed, the
distance, and the closing speed of
the car in front of you
adjusts your speed accordingly to
maintain a safe following distance
10
Current Cruise Control


7/26/2016
Keeps current speed
Allows manual decrease of
speed
11
Intelligent Cruise Control



7/26/2016
Constantly searches targets in
front of car
Automatically decreases speed
when necessary
May prevent accidents
12
Product Goals



7/26/2016
Introduce before competition
Provide a quality product which
increases travel reaction time
helping to save lives and cost in
property damage
Market to electronic business

Questions and Answers
7/26/2016
41
Pros



7/26/2016
Allows for more reaction time so
that a driver may prevent accidents
If accident, will lessen impact
velocity, thus lower cost for repairs,
and more importantly, less of a
serious impact to driver and
passengers
Relative easy implementation
42
Cons
 Cars must already have an existing
cruise control system
 Cars without a easily mounted
Cruise Control system will make
installation difficult
7/26/2016
43
Will Do



7/26/2016
The ICC is able to detect a vehicle
in front of it.
Based on the distance, actual
speed and speed differences, the
system calculates the needed
acceleration or deceleration to
maintain a safe distance.
The ICC will help less aware
drivers maintain control over the
vehicle.
44
Project Status



7/26/2016
Feasibility
Technology Research
Integration of radar with the cruise
control computer
45
Will not do
 It will not change the driver’s
behavior (aggressive driving)
 It will not be a pure safety device in
which it can not directly prevent
accident but it will increase
reaction time
7/26/2016
46
Technology
(Chaotic Radar Waves)
1.) It is inexpensive
2.) It is more efficient
3.) It does more accurate
measurements
4.) It is capable of high interference
rejection
7/26/2016
47
Social Impact


7/26/2016
Less cost of insurance claims,
injuries, and vehicle repairs in
accidents
Safer roads due to the maintaining
of speed and following distance.
48
Competition


7/26/2016
Berkley- ($200M grant from GM)
working on providing
specifications for a fully operating
system with the smart highway
system
Mitsubishi- has design of the
chaotic radar and should be
implementing technology in new
cars with next few years
49
Customer
All vehicle owners who currently
use a cruise control system
