Driver assistance system

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Driver assistance systems ( FAS ; English Advanced Driver Assistance Systems , ADAS ) are additional electronic devices in motor vehicles to support the driver in certain driving situations. The focus here is often on safety aspects, but also on increasing driving comfort. Another aspect is the improvement in profitability.

The driving task is divided in the broadest sense into the 3 levels of planning, guidance and stabilization. For the management and stabilization levels, action periods of only (milli-) seconds are usually available, which can only be achieved with the help of vehicle dynamics systems, as these by far exceed the human ability to act.

Layout and function

Driver assistance systems intervene semi-autonomously or autonomously in the drive (e.g. accelerator, brake), control (e.g. park-steering assistant) or signaling devices of the vehicle or warn the driver shortly before or during critical situations using suitable human-machine interfaces Situations. Most driver assistance systems are currently designed in such a way that responsibility remains with the driver (that is, he can usually "override" autonomous interventions) and that the driver is not incapacitated. The main reasons for this are:

  • The legal situation according to which the driver is responsible for driving his vehicle at all times and must be able to control it at all times ( Vienna Convention on Road Traffic 1968, Art. 8, Paragraph 5): Every driver must constantly control his vehicle or drive his animals can.
  • The insufficient reliability of many systems. Particularly demanding tasks here are the recognition and classification of objects and the interpretation of the scenery around the vehicle. Currently available sensors and known signal processing approaches cannot yet offer reliable detection of the surroundings under all possible driving and weather conditions. Assistance systems therefore only offer limited support in certain, manageable situations (e.g. adaptive cruise control : work area often restricted to certain speed ranges, no consideration of stationary objects, etc.).
  • The lack of acceptance for "incapacitating" systems among buyers of such vehicles.

technology

The control intervention or the signaling functions of driver assistance systems require knowledge of the current driving situation. In the case of ESP (Electronic Stability Program) and ABS, this can be sensors that determine the wheel speed and / or the yaw rate (= rotational speed of the vehicle around the vertical axis), as well as the longitudinal and lateral acceleration. Advanced systems such as ACC or distance warning systems require additional information about the vehicle environment. Various types of environment sensors are used for this type of assistance system . Stand here

  • Ultrasound (parking aid)
  • Radar (lane change assistant, automatic distance warning)
  • Lidar (blind spot monitoring, automatic distance warning, distance control, pre-crash and pre-brake)
  • Camera (lane departure warning, traffic sign recognition, lane change assistant, blind spot monitoring, emergency braking system for pedestrian protection)

in the foreground. Combinations of several sensor systems ( sensor data fusion ) are sometimes necessary. Due to the high price of such sensor systems, there is usually a requirement for multifunctionality; that is, a sensor system has to cover various assistance functions. By combining it with exact data from navigation systems , a location-based warning can be issued e.g. B. be done at high speed in advance of a tight curve.

distribution

In 2003, the average value for driver assistance systems were each sold car in Germany at about 900 euros (focus: anti-lock braking system (ABS) , ESP , brake assist , tire pressure monitoring system , adaptive cruise control (ACC) , Adaptive Highbeam Assist). According to studies, an average value of 3200 euros in 2010 and 4300 euros in 2015 is expected. This is also based on future systems such as object recognition / pedestrian protection, accident recognition, automatic emergency brake, infrared night vision and the like. Ä. from. The main driver for the growth of these systems is the demand from buyers, who, according to an ADAC survey, place vehicle safety in first place. Another influence is the demographic factor in Germany, according to which older drivers place more value on vehicle safety and - due to their relative increase in the next few years - stimulate demand accordingly. According to DVR , only a few car owners or dealers are aware of the available driver assistance systems.

The market volume of ADAS systems is estimated at approx. 67 billion USD with a growth rate of CAGR 10% for 2025 .

Take the example of a motorcycle: In 2003, around 4,000 motorcycle accidents with personal injury were caused by "overbraking and subsequent falls". About 90% of these could have been prevented by installing an ABS. The Federal Statistical Office has published a report on two-wheeler accidents with current data and facts for 2018.

After Europe was leading the way in the ESP, the USA decided in December 2007 to introduce it. Since 2009 55% of vehicles up to 4.5 t have to be equipped with ESP, from 2012 this will apply to 100% of vehicles. The UN is currently working on a regulation that will prescribe ESP technology as a worldwide standard. In 2004, 26% of new vehicles worldwide were equipped with ESP. In Germany this value was 64%. In 2014, 84 percent of all new vehicles in Germany were equipped with anti-skid protection, and 59 percent worldwide. Since November 1, 2014, all new cars and commercial vehicles up to 3.5 tons in the EU must be equipped with ESP.

Information about the available driver assistance systems in various vehicles can be called up in the database of the initiative "bester co-driver" of the DVR, German Road Safety Council .

According to EU Regulation (EU) 2019/2144 of November 2019, all vehicles must be equipped with an intelligent speed assistant, a device for installing an alcohol-sensitive immobilizer, a warning system (if the driver is tired or the driver is less alert), reversing assistants and emergency brake lights. Passenger cars and light commercial vehicles with an additional emergency lane departure warning and an advanced emergency braking system (Automated Emergency Braking, shortly AEB). Lane departure warning and emergency braking assistance systems are already compulsory for buses and trucks, and a turning assistant is added here. This applies to new type approvals from July 2022, for all newly registered vehicles from July 2024.

potential

According to studies of the accident research of the insurers (UDV) on driver assistance systems, the serial equipping of cars, trucks and vans with ESP and motorcycles with ABS would significantly reduce the number of accidents. The UDV determined the following potential benefits:

  • ESP for cars: 25–35% (controllable accidents with serious personal injury)
  • ESP for trucks: 9% (controllable accidents with serious personal injury)
  • ESP for vans: 19% (controllable accidents with serious personal injury)
  • ABS for motorcycles: 10% (controllable accidents with personal injury)

With the standard installation of collision warning and emergency braking systems in cars, many serious rear-end collisions can also be avoided, says the accident research of the insurers. According to calculations, a reduction in serious car accidents by twelve percent would be possible with modern brake assistants. The technology alerts drivers to an impending collision or initiates emergency braking in the event of danger. According to accident researchers, braking too carefully and too late is responsible for many traffic accidents. According to the anti-skid ESP, which has been mandatory for all new vehicles across Europe since 2011, collision warning and emergency braking systems promise the highest potential for accident prevention. Experts are also in favor of using ADAS systems that are mandatory for trucks.

In a current study from 2019, scientists examined accident protection using three ADAS technologies ( blind spot assistant , lane departure warning system , collision warning and protection system) for the year 2015 in the USA and came to the conclusion that the three technologies were approx. 1.6 Million accidents, including 7200 fatal accidents.

future

Studies are already thinking about "automatic evasive maneuvers", whereby the safe and unambiguous recognition of the situation, the short-term takeover of the vehicle and the successful return to the driver is a difficult undertaking. In addition to the reliable detection of the surrounding situations, various strategies for suitable evasive maneuvers must also be developed and evaluated in the shortest possible time. Also, especially with autonomous interventions (see also self-driving motor vehicle ), the question of product liability should not be underestimated. When it comes to product liability, safety standards such as B. ISO 26262 , ISO / PAS 21448 or standards and guidelines recently published by OEMs or other organizations play an important role. With all assistance systems, the cooperation of engineers , psychologists , ergonomists and lawyers is necessary. Classic ADAS systems also come up against technical limits. The optimization (e.g. through machine learning and related technologies such as cloud computing , image pattern recognition, etc.), and fusion of the systems as well as expansion with environment and communication technologies (see e.g. V2X or WLAN 802.11p ) is currently the task of technical development and research.

standardization

The ADASIS forum (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems Interface Specifications) was founded under the leadership of ERTICO to standardize the increasingly extensive driver assistance systems. The previous proprietary formats and interfaces of the individual manufacturers and suppliers are to be replaced by a common standard in the future. Until version 2.0, which was released in December 2013, the standard specifications were publicly available. From version 2.0 these are only available for companies with a fee-based membership in the ADASIS forum.

Standardization in autonomous vehicles is currently the subject of broad discussion and work. Some other initiatives are:

  • The OpenADx Working Group is a cooperation between the automotive industry that was initiated in June this year and is supposed to take care of things like better compatibility, interfaces and broader interoperability in the development of software that supports autonomous driving.
  • Automotive Grade Linux is an open source collaborative project bringing automakers, suppliers and technology companies together to accelerate the development and adoption of a fully open software stack for the connected car. With Linux as its core, AGL is building an open platform from the ground up that can serve as the de facto industry standard to enable the rapid development of new functions and technologies.
  • BSI Publicly Available Specifications (PAS): PAS 1880 and PAS 1881 with regard to the safety of automated vehicle development and testing. These should be published in early 2020.
  • Draft of the UL 4600 standard, which describes a safety approach to ensure autonomous product safety in general and self-driving cars in particular.
  • C2X communication according to the European ITS-G5 standard, especially 5G Automotive Association .
  • The RAND Corporation has created a concept (framework) for the measurement and development of safety for autonomous vehicles.
  • Safety First for Automated Driving (SaFAD) - 11 companies from the entire spectrum of automotive and automated drive technology have developed and published an industry-wide definition of safety for SAE J3016 Level 3/4 autonomous vehicles.
