Self-driving vehicles also need maps - just like us drivers - for route plans, but traditional maps are often inaccurate and contain significantly less information than so-called High Definition Maps (HD). HD maps are ...

Performing special driving techniques like drifting can be challenging even for professional human drivers. However, such maneuvers can be essential for avoiding accidents in critical road scenarios like evasive maneuvers. ...

This paper describes a simulation of a specific accident reconstructed in PreScan software. Through this, we show that the PreScan software can be efficiently applied in accident reconstruction, particularly the operation ...

In recent years, artificial intelligence, deep learning, and computer vision systems have paved the way for the development of various self-driving vehicles. The risk of testing these vehicles is not negligible, given the ...

The development and adjustment process of a race car consists of countless steps that require a lot of decisions to be made. These decisions can only be effective if we have the right amount and quality of information. A ...

Performing dynamic double lane-change maneuvers can be a challenge for highly automated vehicles. The algorithm must meet safety requirements while keeping the vehicle stable and controllable. The problem of path planning ...

In this article, a model predictive controller (MPC) for automated vehicle path following is presented. The MPC calculates the optimal steering command based on the prediction of the future states of the vehicle and the ...

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are one of the most important parts of the advancements in smart city planning. The sensors provide valuable data about various metrics

The testing of Connected and Automated Vehicles (CAVs) and that of the smart infrastructure (traffic control devices and vehicle sensors) in relation with CAVs will be supported by the development of a novel type of road ...

It’s not uncommon that analysis and simulation methods are used mainly to evaluate finished designs and to proof their quality. Whereas the potential of such methods is to lead or control a design process from the beginning ...
