Environmental perception technology is the foundation of UGVs, which is of great significance to achieve a safer and more efficient performance. This article firstly introduces commonly used sensors for vehicle detection, lists their application scenarios and compares the strengths and weakness of different sensors. Secondly, related works about one of the most important aspects of environmental perception technology—vehicle detection—are reviewed and compared in detail in terms of different sensors. Thirdly, several simulation platforms related to UGVs are presented for facilitating simulation testing of vehicle detection algorithms. In addition, some datasets about UGVs are summarized to achieve the verification of vehicle detection algorithms in practical application. Finally, promising research topics in the future study of vehicle detection technology for UGVs are discussed in detail.

Entre os anos de 2010 a 2012, os índices de acidentes ocasionados por motoristas foi muito superior a outras causas como rodovias e veículos em más condições. No ano de 2012, por exemplo, 90,15% dos acidentes ocorridos foram por comportamento inadequado do motorista, em um total de 12868 acidentes ocorridos no Rio Grande do Sul.

  • An Interactive Track Generator for TORCS and Speed-Dreams
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Archivio istituzionale della ricerca - Politecnico di Milano TrackGen: An Interactive Track Generator for TORCS and Speed-Dreams Luigi Cardamone, Pier Luca Lanzi, and Daniele Loiacono Dipartimento di Elettronica, Informazione e Bioinformatica Politecnico di Milano, Milano, Italy. Abstract TrackGen is an on-line tool for the generation of tracks for two open-source 3D car racing games (TORCS and Speed Dreams). It integrates interactive evolution with procedural content generation and comprises two components: (i) a web frontend that maintains the database of all the evolved popula- tions and manages the interaction with users (by collecting users evaluations and providing access to the evolved tracks); (ii) an evolutionary/content- generation backend that runs both the evolutionary algorithm and generates the actual game content that is available through the web frontend. The first prototype of the tool was presented in July 2011 but advertised only to researchers; the first official version which generated tracks only for TORCS was released to the game community in September 2011; due to the many requests, we released a new version soon afterwards, in January 2012, with support for Speed Dreams (the fork of TORCS focused on visual realism and graphic quality) that has been on-line since then. From January 2012 until July 2014, TrackGen had more than 7600 unique visitors who visited the web- site around 11500 times and viewed 85500 pages; it was employed to evolve more than 8853 tracks, and it was used to download 12218 tracks.

  • Fully Virtual Rapid ADAS Prototyping Via a Joined Multi-Domain Co-Simulation Ecosystem
    Fully Virtual Rapid ADAS Prototyping via a Joined Multi-domain Co-simulation Ecosystem R´obert Lajos B¨ucs, Pramod Lakshman, Jan Henrik Weinstock, Florian Walbroel, Rainer Leupers and Gerd Ascheid Institute for Communication Technologies and Embedded Systems, RWTH Aachen University, Germany Keywords: ADAS Prototyping, Driving Simulators, Virtual Platforms, Multi-domain Simulation, Near Real-time Execution. Abstract: Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) have evolved into comprehensive hardware/software applicati- ons with exploding complexity. Various simulation-driven techniques emerged to facilitate their development, e.g., model-based design and driving simulators. However, these approaches are mostly restricted to functional prototyping only. Virtual platform technology is a promising solution to overcome this limitation by accura- tely simulating the entire ADAS hardware/software stack, including functional and non-functional properties. However, all these tools and techniques are limited to their individual simulation environments. To reap their combined benefits, this paper proposes a joined frameworking to facilitate ADAS prototyping via full vir- tualization and whole-system simulation. For this purpose, an advanced automotive-flavor virtual platform was also designed, ensuring detailed, near real-time simulation. The benefits of the approach and the joined frameworks are shown by prototyping two ADAS applications in various system configurations. 1 INTRODUCTION the sheer complexity of the electronic and electri- cal system and
