Abstract :
The Advanced Safety Vehicle (ASV) project, advocated by Japan´s Ministry of Transport, was carried out from 1991 to March 1996 to promote developing safety measures for the 21st century mainly by intellectualizing vehicles. This paper introduces the main functions and devices of Mitsubishi´s Active Safety ASV which employs many state-of-the-art technologies to support the driver under various traffic situations. The ASV is equipped with a multi-eye system which consists of two lane-detecting cameras, two scanning laser radar, six passive trigonometric-type sensors, and three stereo cameras, to detect surrounding traffic situations. The friendly man-machine interface consists of sophisticated indicators, warning systems, and indirect visual field systems using small video cameras. The collision avoidance system assesses the situational risk and warns the driver or performs an automatic collision avoidance if necessary
