TLDR
In this paper, an obstacle detection system for an automotive vehicle detects obstacles ahead of the vehicle and finds the dynamic relativity between the vehicle between each obstacle and each of the obstacles, based on which information relating to a danger level between vehicle and each obstacle is operated on so as to make a danger judgement.Abstract:
An obstacle detection system for an automotive vehicle detects obstacles ahead of the vehicle and finds the dynamic relativity between the vehicle and each of the obstacles. Based on the dynamic relativity, information relating to a danger level between the vehicle and each obstacle is operated on so as to make a danger judgement. A frequency, at which the operations on the information relating to danger level are made, is increasingly or decreasingly varied according to the danger levels of the obstacles.read more

Adaptive pattern recognition based control system and method
TL;DR: An adaptive interface for a programmable system, for predicting a desired user function, based on user history, as well as machine internal status and context, is presented for confirmation by the user, and the predictive mechanism is updated based on this feedback as mentioned in this paper.
Patent
Accident avoidance system
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a system for preventing vehicle accidents in which GPS ranging signals relating to a host vehicle's position on a roadway on a surface of the earth are received on a first communication link from a network of satellites and DGPS auxiliary range correction signals for correcting propagation delay errors in the GPS ranging signal from a station or satellite.

Automobile collision avoidance system
David C. H. Shaw,Judy Z. Z. Shaw +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an automobile collision avoidance system based on laser radars for aiding in avoidance of automobile collisions is presented. But the system is not suitable for use in highway driving.
Patent
Method and means for avoiding collision between a motor vehicle and obstacles
TL;DR: In this article, a method for avoiding collision between a motor vehicle and obstacles placed in the path of the vehicle comprises the stages of forming a radar map of the area in front of a vehicle, reconstructing the geometry of the road, identifying its edges, detecting the position and speed of vehicle with respect to the road and determining the vehicle's presumed path on the basis of road geometry and the manoeuvre being carried out by the vehicle at that instant.
Patent
Multi-frequency, multi-target vehicular radar system using digital signal processing
TL;DR: In this paper, a vehicle collision avoidance radar system using digital signal processing techniques including a transmit section (202) that generates a two-channel transmit frequency and a Schottky diode mixer (208) generates a difference signal having a frequency equal to the transmit frequency minus the receive frequency.
Patent
Method and system for automatically detecting a preceding vehicle
TL;DR: In this paper, a method and system for detecting a presence of a preceding vehicle moving in a front detection area of a controlled vehicle is presented. But it does not consider the presence of the real preceding vehicle.
Patent
Method and apparatus for the control of the safety distance of a vehicle relative to preceding vehicles
TL;DR: In this paper, a method and apparatus for the control of the safety distance of a vehicle with respect to preceding objects is presented, wherein various measurements and controls are effected so as to provide control magnitudes for enabling prevention of a collision of the vehicle with an object.
