"Deep View" is an advanced system of driving assistance, based on a network of radar (and, in some situations, infrared) sensors alongside the motorway. Each single vehicle in the coverage area is tracked individually by the system, and vehicle-specific information about obstacles (slower or stopping vehicles ahead, queues, and the like) along the route is transmitted to the respective on-board receiving devices, through a dedicated digital radio channel. In this way, drivers can be advised by the system on the road situation in front of them, and become aware of danger conditions in real time, even in the case of scarce or almost null visibility. The requirements on the radar sensor and the characteristics of the current prototypes are described, and the results of initial field trials on the motorway of Autovie Venete are presented and discussed. |
