2. Problem 5.6 million accidents 34,000 fatalities 2,632,000 injuries 90% >30 MPH 25,000 fatalities Makes roadway usage inefficient!  Wasted fuel consumption  Decreased productivity

3. Objective Sensors monitor vehicle surroundings: Blind spot detection Forward detection Rear detection Driver warning systems: Audible Visual Vehicle Overhead Map

4. Marketing Requirements 1. The system should be able to detect vehicles in the blind spots 2. The system should be able to alert the driver of potential collisions with all sides of vehicle 3. The system should have a screen with important information 4. This system should not distract the driver 5. The system should be able to work with any vehicle 6. The system should be easy to use 7. The system should communicate its information with vehicles and roadside units nearby

5. Realistic Constraints  Performance  Functionality  Economic  Energy  Health and Safety  Legal  Maintainability  Operational  Reliability  Availability  Social
