AUTONOUMOUS VEHICLE GUIDANCE THROUGH COOPERATION BETWEEN VEHICLES
A new concept that a vehicle is manually or automatically guided to an assigned position from another vehicle has been proposed, and the experimentstudy has been conducted to show the feasibility of the system proposed. In the experiment, a vehicle was guided by another vehicle that measures the position and the heading of the guided vehicle to instruct the guided vehicle the steering and the velocity to its destination. The system is intended that a few intelligent vehicles will assist many ordinary vehicles in dedicated areas including parking areas. For the covering abstract see E134653.
