1. Overview of Project CACC1 Software Engineering CSE435 Michigan State University Fall 2013 Team members: Project Manager: Kathy Cummings Facilitator: Phil Plachta Customer Liason: Jack Schinderle Configuration Manager: Garrett Stevenson Customer: William Milam of the Ford Motor Company Instructor: Dr. Betty H.C. Cheng* *Please direct all inquiries to the instructor.

2. Project Overview Intelligent Cruise Control System Motivation for project – Increase fuel efficiency – Improve traffic flow – Reduce collisions

3. Overview of Features Assisted Cruise Control Cooperative Assisted Cruise Control Lane Keeping/Centering Curve Speed Assist

4. Assisted Cruise Control Works as normal Cruise Control Accelerate/decelerate in response to other vehicles - If approaching slow moving vehicle decelerate -Keep appropriate gap

5. Cooperative Assisted Cruise Control ACC with communication between vehicles - Via a transponder Platoon of vehicles cooperate Maintain gap and speed set by platoon leader

6. Lane Keeping Cameras used to detect lane-lines Works in optimal conditions only Warning lights

7. Curve Speed Assist GPS determines curve location/gradient Acceleration/deceleration preempt according to GPS information

8. Domain Research Investigated adaptive cruise control Extended functionality for platoon formation Project Constraints –Maintaining customer privacy –Limited to use in highway environment –Requires multiple CACC-enabled vehicles –Constant access to internet for VNA
