Speed Limitation Based on an Advanced Curve Warning System

This paper presents an integrated system to prevent driver from taking a curve with a dangerous speed. The integrated system underlines three functions developed as follows : the first function consists in knowing the geometry characteristics of the coming road; the second function has to compute a safe speed according to the road section, the vehicle and the driver; the last function must impose the speed control of the vehicle in order to achieve a safe speed in the case that the driver does not achieve it.
