Traffic Sign Recognition

Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR) is a system that uses cameras, usually mounted on the windshield, to detect and recognize traffic signs along the road. This system is able to read signals such as speed limits, priority signals, no passing and other important traffic signals, and display them on the instrument panel or infotainment screen of the vehicle.

Benefits and Function:

  • It informs the driver of the applicable traffic regulations, such as the speed limit, even if he did not notice the corresponding sign.
  • It can be combined with the cruise control system (ACC) to automatically adjust the vehicle speed according to the respective limit.

Driver Fatigue Detection

Driver Drowsiness Detection is a system designed to monitor driver behavior and detect signs of fatigue or lack of concentration. It uses sensors that monitor steering wheel movements, pressure on the pedals, and detecting the position of the head or eyes through a camera.

Benefits and Function:

  • When the system detects signs of fatigue, such as erratic steering movements or lane departure, it issues a warning, usually with an audible alert and a message on the instrument panel urging the driver to take a break.
  • In conjunction with other systems, such as Lane Keeping Assist (LKA), it can intervene to prevent lane departure.

Pedestrian and Cyclist Detection

Pedestrian and Cyclist Detection is a technology that uses radar and cameras to detect people and cyclists close to the vehicle's path. This system aims to prevent collisions with pedestrians and cyclists, who are vulnerable road users.

Benefits and Function:

  • If the system detects a pedestrian or cyclist who is at risk of colliding with the vehicle, it triggers a warning for the driver. If there is no reaction from the driver, the system can automatically apply the brakes to prevent or reduce the intensity of the collision.
  • It is particularly useful in urban environments where pedestrian and cyclist traffic is heavy, but also at low speeds, where such accidents are frequent.
