This fundamental work explains in detail systems for active safety and driver assistance, considering both their structure and their function. These include the well-known standard systems such as Anti-lock braking system (ABS), Electronic Stability Control (ESC) or Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC). But it includes also new systems for protecting collisions protection, for changing the lane, or for convenient parking.The book aims at giving a complete picture focusing on the entire system. First, it describes the components which are necessary for assistance systems, such as sensors, actuators, mechatronic subsystems, and control elements. Then, it explains key features for the user-friendly design of human-machine interfaces between driver and assistance system. Finally, important characteristic features of driver assistance systems for particular vehicles are presented: Systems for commercial vehicles and motorcycles.

This book is the second volume reflecting the shift in the design paradigm in automobile industry. 2014, respectively. It describes major innovations in the field of driver assistance systems and automated vehicles as well as fundamental changes in the architecture of the vehicles.

This book reflects the shift in design paradigm in automobile industry. It presents future innovations, often referred as  “automotive systems engineering”.  These cause fundamental innovations in the field of driver assistance systems and electro-mobility as well as fundamental changes in the architecture of the vehicles. New driving functionalities can only be realized if the software programs of multiple electronic control units work together correctly. This volume presents the new and innovative methods which are mandatory to master the complexity of the vehicle of the future.

In diesem Grundlagenwerk werden Systeme, die Fahrzeugführung unterstützen oder ganz übernehmen in Aufbau und Funktion ausführlich erklärt. Darüber hinaus enthält es eine Übersicht der Rahmenbedingungen für die Entwicklung solcher Systeme sowie Erläuterungen der angewandten Entwicklungs- und Testwerkzeuge. Die Beschreibung umfasst die heute bekannten Assistenzsysteme einschließlich des Ausblicks auf deren zukünftigen Entwicklungen. Speziell wird den vielfältigen Aspekten der Automatisierung des Fahrens Rechnung getragen, denn mit der Übertragung der Fahraufgabe an eine Maschine leiten sich viele neue Herausforderungen ab. Im Handbuch werden Funktionsprinzipien und Ausführungsformen die dazu erforderlichen Komponenten und Architekturen für die maschinelle Wahrnehmung, der Planung und der Aktorik erläutert. Der nutzergerechten Gestaltung der Mensch-Maschine-Schnittstellen von Assistenz- und Automatisierungssystemen wird ebenso Rechnung getragen wie die Diskussion zu den Herausforderungen für die Einführung des hochautomatisierten Fahrens ab Level 3. Besonderheiten von Systemen zum assistierten und automatisierten Fahrens bei Nutzfahrzeugen und Motorrädern runden den umfassenden Ansatz ab.

This open access book explains in detail systems and technologies for assisted and automated driving. It also provides an overview of the limitations of such systems concerning development processes and test tools. This description covers today’s advanced driver assistance systems with environment perception in passenger cars, commercial vehicles, and motorcycles. This includes functional principles as well as embodiments of the components required for this purpose, such as sensors, actuators, mechatronic subsystems, and actuating elements. Additionally, data fusion concepts, environment representations, and user-friendly designs of the human-machine interface between the assistance system and driver are presented.New priorities are also presented concerning the development of automated driving. Although automated driving is based on the technology of advanced driver assistance systems, removing humans from the responsibility of driving induces entirely new challenges that also go beyond series technology. The variety of necessary innovative approaches is presented in example applications.The contentFundamentals of Advanced Driver Assistance System Development – Virtual Development and Test Environments for ADAS – Test Methods – Sensors for ADAS – Data Fusion and Environment Representation – Digital Infrastructure – Actuation for ADAS – Human-Machine-Interfaces for ADAS – ADAS on Guidance- and Navigation Level – Automated DrivingThe target groupsAutomotive development and application engineers Students of automotive-electrics, -electronics, -mechatronicsStudents of mechanical engineering/automotive technologyStudents of electronics/ informatics/ information technologyThe EditorsProf. Dr. rer. nat.

Ist das voll automatisierte, autonom fahrende Auto zum Greifen nah? Testfahrzeuge und Zulassungen in den USA erwecken diesen Eindruck, werfen aber gleichzeitig viele neue Fragestellungen auf. Wie werden autonome Fahrzeuge in das aktuelle Verkehrssystem integriert? Wie erfolgt ihre rechtliche Einbettung? Welche Risiken bestehen und wie wird mit diesen umgegangen? Und welche Akzeptanz seitens der Gesellschaft sowie des Marktes kann hinsichtlich dieser Entwicklungen überhaupt erwartet werden?Das vorliegende Buch gibt Antworten auf ein breites Spektrum dieser und weiterer Fragen. Expertinnen und Experten aus Deutschland und den USA beschreiben aus ingenieur- und gesellschaftswissenschaftlicher Sicht zentrale Themen im Zusammenhang mit der Automatisierung von Fahrzeugen im öffentlichen Straßenverkehr. Sie zeigen auf, welche „Entscheidungen“ einem autonomen Fahrzeug abverlangt werden beziehungsweise welche „Ethik“ programmiert werden muss. Die Autorinnen und Autoren diskutieren Erwartungen und Bedenken, die die individuelle wie auch die gesellschaftliche Akzeptanz des autonomen Fahrens kennzeichnen. Ein durch autonome Fahrzeuge erhöhtes Sicherheitspotenzial wird den Herausforderungen und Lösungsansätzen, die bei der Absicherung des Sicherheitskonzeptes eine Rolle spielen, gegenübergestellt. Zudem erläutern sie, welche Veränderungsmöglichkeiten und Chancen sich für unsere Mobilität und die Neuorganisation des Verkehrsgeschehens ergeben, nicht zuletzt auch für den Güterverkehr. Das Buch bietet somit eine aktuelle, umfassende und wissenschaftlich fundierte Auseinandersetzung mit dem Thema „Autonomes Fahren“.

This book takes a look at fully automated, autonomous vehicles and discusses many open questions: How can autonomous vehicles be integrated into the current transportation system with diverse users and human drivers? Where do automated vehicles fall under current legal frameworks? What risks are associated with automation and how will society respond to these risks? How will the marketplace react to automated vehicles and what changes may be necessary for companies?Experts from Germany and the United States define key societal, engineering, and mobility issues related to the automation of vehicles. They discuss the decisions programmers of automated vehicles must make to enable vehicles to perceive their environment, interact with other road users, and choose actions that may have ethical consequences. The authors further identify expectations and concerns that will form the basis for individual and societal acceptance of autonomous driving. While the safety benefits of suchvehicles are tremendous, the authors demonstrate that these benefits will only be achieved if vehicles have an appropriate safety concept at the heart of their design. Realizing the potential of automated vehicles to reorganize traffic and transform mobility of people and goods requires similar care in the design of vehicles and networks. By covering all of these topics, the book aims to provide a current, comprehensive, and scientifically sound treatmentof the emerging field of “autonomous driving".
