Driver support in intelligent autonomous cruise control

Presents a driver support system developed for an automatic intelligent cruise control test car. The system gathers information to be passed to the driver, processes it and presents it using either a visual or an aural output channel. Although the actual support provided, as well as the ultimate form of the displayed or pronounced messages, remain to be decided upon after a series of well-designed experiments, the design of the system helps programmers to work in an incremental fashion and to alter implementation details easily.
