Driving assist and safety system

Abstract

Automobiles have deeply impacted the way in which we travel but they have also contributed to many deaths and injury due to crashes. A number of reasons for these crashes have been pointed out by researchers. Inexperience has been identified as a contributing factor to road crashes. Drivers driving abilities also play a vital role in judging the road environment and reacting in-time to avoid any possible collision. Our failure to understand what is really important for learners, in terms of competent driving, is one of the many challenges for building better safety program for drivers. Driving Assist and Safety System is one of the intervention aimed at decreasing the number of crashes that involve drivers. Currently, there is a need to develop comprehensive driver evaluation system that benefits from the advances in Driving Assist and Safety System. A multidisciplinary approach is necessary to explain how driving abilities evolves with on-road driving experience. The aim and novelty of this document is to develop and evaluate Driving Assist and Safety System, an automated system for the safety of drivers. Sleep creeps up on drivers almost unnotices , at that time most of the people risk falling asleep for a few seconds unintentionally.That is one of the worst scenario when the Driving Assist and Safety System can help, but there are many more circumstance which can bring a car close to intentional leaving of the lane without having the proper knowledge about what is behind their own vehicle. Also overspeeding and loosing the control at the critical moments. Blind spot is the region on the both side of car which is outside the vision angle of driver and side mirrors combined. System shall detect the object (vehicle) presence, determine if it is in the blind spot region and then alarming the driver. The system receives the instruction from the user through User interface, which consists of buttons for enabling/disabling the system or to override any settings. Driving Assist and Safety System have 3 modules; Driver Alertness, Blind Spot Detections and Safe Distance keeping.
