Abstract

This paper describes a general method to generate warnings for the driver of a vehicle. The method takes into account the current measured state of the own vehicle and observed objects, the uncertainties of these measurements, models of driver, vehicle, and object behavior, and information about the environment, especially how it influences the driver and the observed object. This method is designed to work in two dimensions. It is being implemented into a side collision warning system for transit buses.
