Testing of Active Safety in Road Vehicles– A Driving Force for Research and Innovation

Active safety functions in road vehicles are under rapid development. The need for cost-efficient development is driven by increasingly advanced functions, wireless connectivity, couplings between functions and electric powertrains. The development of more advanced active safety functions drives the development of active safety test methods. Future research will be needed in performance testing methodology, accident statistics, driver models, vulnerable road users, test procedures, system safety analysis and test targets.
