The Effects Of Television Interference On Vehicular Communication Systems Using Fir Digital Filters

Cell phones are very helpful technological devices as long as they are not used as distractions in the car. Therefore, they should be used to drivers’ advantage.

With new technology being introduced on almost a daily basis, it needs to be decided what ways are safe to use that technology. Advanced technology has created an abundance of things that can be used while driving. The most popular technology used while driving is the cell phone. Although it was invented in the 1970s, the cell phone did not gain momentum until the 2000s. Even during its first days, the effect of a cell phone distraction was already in the spotlight (Brown, Tickner & Simmonds, 1969). Allowing people to talk wherever and whenever, it became important to ensure this technology was not harming society. Driving is a complex cognitive task. Since its use boomed in the 21st century, several road problems and accidents were linked

In this article, Peters and Peters discuses about the risk of multitasking while driving. Not only they propose a problem, but also tries to give the reader an alternative ways of preventing the cause of an accident. He gives us three-risk factors that can reduce the chances of getting into an accident. They suggest having a printed and audible warning to warn the drivers not to use the device unless the vehicle is not moving, an integrated system “which all device are either shut off or out of driver’s sight when the vehicle is in motion” and finally, “ marketing and dealer restraint”. If these warnings are available in the vehicle, there should be a less chance to be distracted and cause an accident and also, this can be useful thing to create in the vehicle to remind the driver not to multitask while

The use of IoT in the development of autonomous vehicles has led to the general reduction of fatalities (Sheng et.al, 2013). The reduction of fatalities is from the following aspects of driverless cars which are improved on by the use of IoT in the vehicle technology.

This is so not true! There is a difference from using the speaker on the cell phone from using the hands-free device in the vehicle. With the speaker on the phone, the driver can barely hear the other person, so the driver will automatically hold the phone to their ear. With the phone calls coming through your car speakers, it allows the driver to keep both hands on the wheel. By providing hands free devices as a standard option on all vehicles, it would reduce the urge to take your attention away from the highway to look at your phone. Just remember that going 50 mph, a driver can travel the length of a football field in about 5 seconds which does not give that person enough time if they need to stop suddenly. There is a company called Hartman, developing a special key for the car’s ignition that would enable Bluetooth to the phone and shut service off until the driver arrives at their location (Bland, 2009). It has been expressed that a couple of auto makers are very interested in implanting this option to the vehicles of the future. Parents for one would benefit from this when they have young teenage drivers are out and about. According to Reardon (2010), Bluetooth devices are considered hands free but a study by the Highway Loss Data Institute shows that using these devices doesn’t account for safer drivers but shows that it is as distracting as putting a

The deceleration of vehicle speed is demonstrated successfully with the embedded system. Along with this, android based notification system consisting of image and voice output worked efficiently during the testing of embedded system. This work in progress opens opportunities for additional analysis and implementations. The measuring characteristics of sensors are for low speed conditions. When applied in higher speed situations, high-end and enhanced senors with higher range can be implemented. The notification app developed is only for android platform, in future the application can be ported to other

Every year there are hundreds of car accidents that are directly related to some style of electronic device distracting people in cars driving and sadly the death rate keeps increasing as more technology is developed. For many people the use of their cell phone is a way to keep in contact with their friends or business partners. This technology advancement has started a problem with people trying to multitask behind the driver’s wheel which has been shown to increase the distraction level of the driver. Most car users now own a global positioning system which does allow driver to get to their destination fast and safer but if used at the wrong time can be a major distraction and

In the advancement of AI systems, there is going to be change on the way we commute. The driverless car that is capable of driving itself and it is one of the hottest ongoing developments now. This is going to be very beneficial for human beings soon and it all set to take away the traffic accidents, traffic congestions on the road and much more. By specifying the source and destination in the driverless car, we will only be passengers in the car, the car systems do the driving the job for us. There are various intelligent components involved in building up the driverless cars.

How much of an effect does the media have on drivers, and in what way?

The use and idea of self Driving cars are starting to become the new trend over the years. The Tesla and Google have been chipping away and considering the fact at creating self driving vehicles. The proceeding with development of car innovation means to convey a considerably more prominent Automated Driving Systems that can deal with the entire undertaking of driving when we would prefer not to or can't do it without anyone else's help. The thought and consideration of self driving cars just needs more time to be worked on and looked at before we start putting these on the roads for everyone to use...

This is a peculiar as well as a completely new technology in the future, on matters related to driving. The self-driving car team asserts that their product would have significant changes regarding daily human life and activities. However, it is cumbersome to predict the precise outcome of the new technology that would be witnessed in the future because there is limited experience of operating a self-driving car.

Driverless cars would be able to take safety features such as these to a more advanced level that would automatically make manoeuvres such as changing lanes suddenly or automatically slowing down at higher speeds. For example, when driving through heavy fog, the driver would find it difficult to see an oncoming traffic jam whereas an autonomous vehicle’s (AV) sensors would be alerted and would automatically slow the car down and alert the driver as to what was ahead. This system would also be useful if a driver was travelling on unfamiliar roads: the AV would be programmed as to the optimum speed to travel at certain times, eradicating the risk of an accident due to human error. A study by Benenson et al highlights that vehicle-to-vehicle communication may be an effective way of increasing safety with AV’s: cars would communicate with each other their plans of direction and position to ensure no collisions occurred.

While handling any vehicle it is important that all focus is solely on handling that vehicle. Previous studies accomplished by David Strayer, a partner with the American Automobile Association, revealed that while accessing other technical device while driving such, as listening to the radio or an audible book, that the threat it puts on the operator isn’t that strong. From a scale of 1, non distractive, to 5, very distractive, radio access scored 1.2 while the accused of an audible book received 1.75. Neither much of a threat but it is still not recommend to indulge in these activities while behind the while where not only your life but other lives are in danger. Another distractions are apps that read and announce call to the driver so the

These small computers also contain the ability to record vehicle data to examine and increase performance. Navigation technologies and the vehicles’ ability to connect mobile devices with the in-car technologies have also profoundly changed the manner in which drivers and the vehicles themselves can communicate while driving. This new technology has, and does utilize, a greatly increased ability to gather driving information. These information-gathering abilities are used by car manufacturers to provide personalized services and improved driver and even passenger experiences, but in the wrong hands this information could also be used criminally. Wireless technologies in particular, create susceptibilities to hacking that could be used to invade or even possibly assault a user’s privacy, or modify the operation of the vehicle.

The concept of internet of vehicle is shown in Fig.10. The converging technologies of IoV are related to electric vehicle, autonomous vehicle etc. The IoV can also deals with the vehicle to vehicle (V2V), vehicle to device (V2D), vehicle to infrastructure (V2I) and vehicle to grid (V2G) communication.
