with regard to automotive safety, as potential consumers are quite concerned, especially in today’s road traffic situation is quite complicated. All kinds of traffic accidents whether for their own problems a vehicle, or other vehicle was involved, the way it happens is another. How to enhance the safety car to a new level, to promote the vision of zero accidents, become a problem the world automobile companies, automobile safety associations and other institutions are facing. Of course, the driver’s own security awareness is a very important part, but the help of science and technology is essential.
camera in our view, the tool is a record of events, it seems irrelevant to vehicle safety. While standing OEMs angle, car camera can not only make up the driver’s blind spot vision aspects, but also can become a turning point in technology to replace the past, such as virtual mirrors.
The virtual rearview mirror, the rearview mirror is not really used nowadays physical optics specular reflection, but is placed in the outside of the vehicle body by mirror cameras replacing the traditional applications. First, the volume of the mirror than for a small camera, can effectively reduce the air resistance and wind noise. Next, the camera field of view than the wider the mirror, to better observe the situation of the rear sides of the vehicle at an angle. Further, the driver can be reduced effectively affected rearward vehicle light when driving at night, thus reducing traffic accidents occur.
such as the Lexus ES models sold in Japan, is to provide a virtual mirror technology. In the field of commercial vehicles from Germany Mercedes-Benz heavy truck and bus manufacturer MAN, we have for its new products, provide similar technology to consumer choice.
In addition to the observation of the rear side of the situation, in fact, the bottom of the car is blind region One. In particular the need to go on the outskirts of non-paved road, or is damaged or the water surface in the city, the road ahead exactly how a driver can only rule of thumb to estimate. Located by the frontAnd both sides of the camera, the picture captured in real time stitching and transmitted to the central control panel inside the vehicle, will be able to provide more information to the driver’s field of vision to help drivers safe driving.
as a support vehicle tires, the need to face climate, differences in friction caused by different roads, but also need to take up the transfer of power important role. Despite its major responsibilities, but often ignored by users and OEM parts. Tires in good condition only, in order to provide the user with a safe and comfortable experience.
such as Continental therefore, began to work hard in terms of tires. By using a conductive rubber compound to the driver and bus operator always concerned about the working conditions of the tire. When the tire is punctured hard object, a tire monitoring system can alert the user alert.
In addition, the wheel is a breakthrough in the adaptation of traditional boundaries tire. Built-in sensor, the tire pressure may be adjusted to vary the contact area between the wheel and the road surface. For example, in the sand with, a larger ground contact area of the tire, the tire model can be adjusted to change its shape, the contact area will reduce the air pressure of the tire and the ground, to meet the demand driving sand.
Under the conventional alternation driven by a hydraulic brake system, new technologies are also replaced by the new electric drive system also enables a more powerful braking function, will reduce the burden on conventional brakes are mechanical apparatus by the electric brake system, so that the brake pad can be reduced to match the size, reduce the unsprung mass and thus reduce power consumption.
Many people believe that the key to traffic safety that the car itself, in fact, running is as much about the situation on the road to safety. The operating information on the road, be shared through the Internet infrastructure of roads, will likely send the potential risk to the vehicle traveling ahead, to remind motorists to pay attention and take appropriate action.
For example, how things will immediately following the road surface condition, whether forward congestion information and the like occur, is transmitted to the rear of the vehicle, so that the traffic computer determines the vehicle speed assessment, and the need for early deceleration road and go back to other road users. Vehicle
intelligent intersection, a sensor can be carried out by past traffic lights for evaluation, so as to adjust the timing and length of the lit time of the traffic lights, and other channel pedestrian travel direction.
