2. Automated Pedestrian Collision Avoidance System Priority 1: Avoid collision with pedestrian Priority 2: Minimize lost time Motivation for project ◦Human drivers can lose focus ◦Reaction time may be too slow ◦Improve safety for both drivers and pedestrians

3. Overview of Features Stereo camera senses pedestrian Collision avoidance algorithm determines possible hazard Brake-by-wire (BBW) system decelerates vehicle Accelerate to return to previous speed

4. Domain Research Many manufacturers have similar systems Toyota, Volvo, Fiat Various techniques to minimize pedestrian collision and/or injury APCA unique in minimizing lost time Project Constraints ◦All collisions must be avoided regardless of lost time ◦Algorithm assumes pedestrian is moving at 90 degree angle to the vehicle ◦Braking can only occur with a maximum force of 0.7g

6. 6 Part III: Demonstration

7. 7 Scenario #1 Pedestrian is static in front of the vehicle

8. 8 Scenario #2 Pedestrian enters vehicle’s path, then exits

9. 9 Scenario #3 Pedestrian static in vehicle’s path, waits before moving
