A new system αποφυγής συγκρούσεων που ονομάζεται Brains4Cars και αναπτύσσεται από ερευνητές του Cornell και του Stanford University προσθέτει μια φωτογραφική μηχανή στο όχημα που παρακολουθεί τον οδηγό και τη γλώσσα του σώματος του.
The computer that connects to the surveillance camera can record the movements of the face and the driver's head and guess when it tries to twist or change the lane.
With data it receives from another camera and a radar that controln the environment, the system can warn the driver of anything dangerous it detects, according to Engadget.
For example, if the driver turns left, the left side of the steering wheel or seat will start vibrating as a warning. Researchers believe that visual signaland audio signals could be integrated into the system, providing additional security. In addition, the system can also receive information from GPS to warn the driver if he takes a wrong turn somewhere, or if he drives backwards on a one-way street.
To develop the system algorithm, the researchers recorded 10 guide activities for two months. They then analyzed the data from several driving videos. The result;
Their algorithm was able to predict the actions of the 3,53 driver seconds before executing them and was correct in predictions of 77,4%.
Obviously, the system Brains4Cars is not perfect yet, but think that the sample used by the researchers to develop the algorithm was very small (just 10 individuals).
Researchers continue to develop the system protections looking to add more features, such as touch sensors on the steering wheel and brake pedal, as well as infrared sensors.
