Advanced Automatic Collision Notification Research Report
This document describes recent progress made by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to better understand the safety potential and technical considerations of post-crash technologies such as automatic collision notification (ACN) and advanced automatic collision notification (AACN). These technologies provide automatic notification of a crash when that crash reaches a minimum severity such as air bag deployment. Notification to a public safety answering point (PSAP, or 9-1-1 call center) or telematics service provider (TSP) occurs via cellular signal that allows the vehicle to place a call and transmit data.Research was conducted on the target population who may benefit from AACN, injury prediction algorithms used by AACN systems, and estimates of costs and benefits (i.e. potential lives saved) that could be realized with implementation of AACN.Finally, research was conducted on development of a procedure to test AACN systems.
