ELECTRONIC HORIZON - SUPPORTING ADAS APPLICATIONS WITH PREDICTIVE MAP DATA

Since navigation systems are increasingly entering the vehicle, the available map data may not only be used for routing purposes but also to support other in-vehicle sub-systems. The area of potential applications reaches from driver information and warning systems to comfort and active safety applications. Ford Research & Advanced Engineering has developed a prototype system that supports the vehicle with enhanced map data for the road ahead, the so-called "Electronic Horizon". The interface between digital map data and supported applications is based on an upcoming European industry standard developed by the "ADASIS Forum". For the covering abstract see ITRD E134653.
