FUTURE CONTRIBUTIONS OF THE MOTOR CAR TO SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION ---XXI FISITA CONGRESS, BELGRADE, 2-6 JUNE, 1986, PROCEEDINGS. VOLUME 3 AND VOLUME 4.

The significance of the motor car development has constantly increased in 100 years, both for the individual and for the national economy. Proof for this increase is the steady improvement in transport performance accounted for by the automobile, which can be seen in the technical progress of engines, bodywork and running gear; this, in the last two decades, has led to an ever-higher degree of safety and reduced fuel consumption and exhaust and noise emissions. Further improvement in safety, economy, comfort and emissions will be the task of automotive engineers in the future. Electronics will be used both in design and in the operation of vehicles. Electronics in vehicle operation will in its internal applications make possible a more intelligent engine/gearbox management and a more economical and low-emission combustion. External sensory systems will provide more effective driver information and ultimately a partly-automatic vehicle guidance. For the covering abstract of the conference see IRRD 809110.
