Welcome to SAFER Thursday lunch seminar: Enhanced ADAS 1 & II - Integrating data sources and using directed ambient light displays

On this seminar Daban Rizgary and Niklas Strand from Rise will present, Enhanced ADAS 1 & II - Integrating data sources and using directed ambient light displays.

Advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) are developed to increase safety and efficiency as well as provide a more and comfortable experience when traveling by car. ADAS are reliant upon sensors to provide the intended assistance for the driver, and the driver is reliant upon a Human-Machine-Interface (HMI) to interact with the feature at hand. There are potential improvements that can be done to current ADAS in terms of both functionality and HMI, with the end goal of increasing safety and comfort with these systems. On the functionality side, it is possible to provide the ADAS computer with data sources such as map data, driver monitoring data and cabin monitoring data, and integrate these data sources to create a broader and more reliable foundation for the ADAS computer and the driver. For example, an integration of external sensors and driver monitoring sensors can let the ADAS know what safety-critical elements in the driving environment that has not been seen by the driver and highlight those. This type of functionality also puts a higher demand on the HMI and in turn the driver. Thus novel HMI strategies ought to be explored to present the information in a way that does not put more strain on the driver. One such strategy could be to use directed ambient light displays, with the aim of utilizing a different cognitive faculty than that of focal visual perception. Enhanced ADAS II | Safer (saferresearch.com)
