According to evolution of technologies, many devices related to various applications were researched. The advanced driver assistance system is a famous technique effected from the evolution. The technique of driver assistance uses image recognition methods to collect exactly information around the vehicle. The computing power of driver assistance device has become more improved than in the past. However, it's difficult that processed various recognition methods at real-time. We propose new frame skip method to process various recognition methods at real-time in the limited hardware. In the previous researches, frame skip rate was set up static values, thus the number of processed frames through recognition methods was smaller. We set up the frame skip rate dynamically using a driving condition of vehicle through speed and acceleration value, in addition, the number of processed frames was maximized. The performance is improved more 32.5% than static frame skip method.

최근 차량증가에 따라 교통사고가 날로 증가하고 있고, 안전운전을 위한 보조장치 개발의 필요성이 증대되고 있다. 특히 교통사고 원인중 운전자의 졸음으로 인한 사고가 30%에 달하고 있어 졸음운전 예방장치의 개발이 시급한 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 졸음운전예방을 위한 효율적인 졸음경보 장치시스템을 제안한다. 제안하는 방법은 HRV와 안구활동 신호를 BP(역전파알고리즘)을 이용 보다 더 정확한 측정 및 판단을 행하여 운전자에게 음성경고를 보내주는 방식이다. 제안된 방식은 기존의 연구된 피부전기활동, 영상처리를 이용한 졸음운전 감지 시스템, 심박변동신호 분석 방법보다 훨씬 효율적인 졸음경보를 할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

This study preformed a research about the traffic signal light that is adding supplementary green light to prevent driver's cognitive errors and plan safe driving through improving visual cognitivity of present traffic signal light. The result of comparing the present traffic signal light(three colors, four colors) with the traffic signal light(three colors, four colors) adding supplementary green light through car simulator has a significant difference. This result shows possibility that the traffic signal light adding supplementary green light can contribute in safety driving at a point that the traffic signal light advances a point of braking time when drivers didn't recognize by themselves. The findings in this study ca say that there is the meaning in showing a actual application possibility of this study finding by investigating a action of subjective response the moment compare driver's actual response.

최근 다양하게 등장하고 있는 운전자를 위한 보조 장치 중 운전자의 주차를 위해 사용되는 장치들 중 하나인 차량용 카메라는 주로 차량 후방의 번호판 위에 주로 위치하여 운전자의 주차에 도움을 주는 역할에 사용이 되고 있다. 최근에는 이러한 카메라를 이용하여 전 후방 및 좌 우측을 모두 보여주기 위한 AVM(Around View Monitor) 시스템이 개발되었다. 그러나 다수의 카메라를 사용하는 AVM시스템에서 운전자에게 통합된 영상을 제공하기 위해서는 카메라의 방사왜곡보정과 호모그래피(Homography) 알고리즘을 통해 정합하는 과정이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 호모그래피 과정에서 결과 영상의 품질을 개선하기 위한 방법을 제안한다. 또한, 제안하는 방법을 구현하여 기존의 8DOF(Degree of Freedom)을 사용한 방법과 결과 영상의 품질을 비교함으로써 개선된 영상을 제공할 수 있음을 제시한다.

A recent spread of personal mobility devices such as electric kickboards has brought about a rapid increase in accident cases. Such vehicles are susceptible to falling accidents due to their low dynamic stability and lack of outer protection chassis. This paper presents the development of an automatic emergency braking system and a safe starting system as driving assistance devices for electric kickboards. The braking system employed artificial intelligence to detect nearby threaening objects. The starting system was developed to disable powder to the motor until when the driver's boarding is confirmed. This study is meaningful in that it proposes the convergence technology of advanced driver assistance systems specialized for personal mobility devices.

The purpose of this study was to test the safety of the heel rest which was made for reducing the automobile driver's muscle fatigue with automatic transmission. Sixty subjects participated in the test, including ten males and ten females in 30s, 40s, 50s, respectively. Simulator consisted of automobile cockpit, accelerator and brake pedal sensor, heel rest. and driving displays. 30 seconds were given to subjects to be accustomed to the simulator environment. They also had one pre-trial to use the brake pedal according to the experimental scenario. They were told to step on the brake pedal immediately as soon as the red light was on the display The reaction time representing the foot travel time between accelerator and brake pedal was measured with/without the heel rest. In results, there was no significant difference in reaction time between conditions with/without heel rest. The result indicated that the heel rest used in this study would be a safe accessory for drivers who need to reduce the fatigue of the muscle or joint during driving.

In this paper, we proposes a study on the derivation of inspection factors for the periodic inspection of large buses equipped with AEBS and LDWS. we investigate the safety evaluation (NCAP) of domestic and foreign vehicles and safety standards for the two functions currently in operation and analyze the evaluation factors, measurement methods and evaluation scenarios and so on. In addition, the test scenario was derived by analyzing the vehicle safety evaluation data already held, Therefore, we use an real large bus and the inspection elements for the periodic inspection were derived.

For bus drivers' safe driving, a policy that analyzes the causes of the drivers' traffic accidents and then assists their safe driving is required. Therefore, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport set up its plan to gradually expand the equipping of commercial vehicles with FCWS (Forward Collision Warning System) and LDWS(Lane Departure Warning System), from the driver-supporting ADAS(Advanced Driver Assistance Systems). However, there is not much basic research on the analysis of bus drivers' traffic accidents in Korea. As such, the time is appropriate to research what is the most necessary ADAS for bus drivers going forward to prevent bus accidents. The purpose of this research is to analyze how serious the accidents were in the different bus routes and whether the accidents were repetitive, and to give recommendations on how to support ADAS for buses, as an improvement. A model of ordered logit was used to analyze how serious the accidents were and as a result, vehicle to pedestrian accidents which directly affected individuals were statistically significant in all of the models, and violations of regulations, such as speeding, traffic signal violation and violation of safeguards for passengers, were indicated in common in several models. Therefore, the pedestrian-sensor system and automatic emergency control device for pedestrian should be installed to reduce bus accidents directly affecting persons in the future, and education for drivers and ADAS are to be offered to reduce the violations of regulations.

자동차의 안전도는 전통적으로 정면 충돌시 승객의 보호 정도를 가지고 비 교 된다. 그러나 근래에 와서는 다양한 사고에 의한 승객의 피해를 볼 때 정면 과 더불어 측면 충돌시의 피해를 무시할 수 없는 상태에 이르렀다. sled tests 등을 통해서 정면 뿐만 아니라 측면 충돌의 영향도 파악하고 있으나 정면 충돌보다 측면 충돌에 대해 승개 보호 장치의 개발이 미흡한 것이 현실이다. 본 연구에서는 현실적으로 보다 효과적인 occupant (운전자 및 승객) restraint system을 computer 모의 실험을 통해서 제안하고자 하였다. 기존의 안전시스템인 lap/shoulder belt system과 Air cushion에 의한 실험은 다각도로 연구되었다. 그러나 측면 충돌에서 Air Bag에 의한 충돌 감소 영향은 정면 충돌에 비해 적어지게 되어 상체 측면 보호 장치가 필요하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 운전자의 lap/shoulder belt system과 Air Bag에 의해 구속되는 dummy를 가지고 다양한 측면 충돌 각도 (0 .deg. , 15 .deg. , 30 .deg. , 45 .deg. , 70 .deg. )에서 실험이 수행되었다. 또한 각 충돌각에 대해 기존 Restraint System에 상체 측면 보호 장치(seat wing)를 포함하여 실험을 수행 하였다. 이에 대한 각각의 영향, 그리고 승객 손상도 분석 및 평가를 통하여 보안된 측면 충돌 보호 restraint system의 필요성과 그 효과를 제시하고자 한다. 실험결과 에 의하면 정면보다 측면에서 충돌하였을 경우 보조 구속 시스템인 seat wing으로 인 해 측면보호는 물론 occupant는 정면으로 나가게 개선되어 구속 시스템으로써의 이점이 확대되고 shoulder blet 또는 dummy의 감속을 통제하는 Air Bag의 잠재적인 이점이 더욱 확대되었음을 보여주고 있다. 그러나 design 단계에서 편안함, 안락감 등의 문제들과, 다른 실용적인 면에 대한 계속적인 연구가 필요하다.
