McDonald, M., Brackstone, M. and Bishop, D. (2004) Advanced driver assistance systems, state of the art and the future: results from the ATLANTIC project. 12th IEE International Conference on Road Transport Information & Control (RTIC 2004), London, UK. 19 - 21 Apr 2004.

Abstract

The EU funded ATLANTIC project (A Thematic Longterm Approach to Networking for the Telematics and ITS Community) ran during 2002-03 and provided an Internet forum to facilitate discussions between EU and North American experts in eight key ITS areas. This paper reports the work undertaken in the area of intelligent vehicles and intelligent vehicle highway systems - ADAS (advanced driver assistance systems) such as adaptive cruise control and automated highway systems, where discussions have prioritised areas of mutual importance and where coordinated developments between the two continents would be of extreme benefit. The work has consisted of two principal stages. Firstly a poll of over 40 experts from all stakeholder groups concerning key areas where further coordinated development is paramount. Secondly, an international directory of projects both completed and in progress has been compiled for the USA, Canada and both under national and EU funding in Europe, with a brief survey conducted of areas of emphasis. The paper presents results from both the poll and survey and suggests reasons for differences and possible routes for future development in this field.
