and communication protocols for the devices used on the road and inside the vehicles are to be finalized and implemented. Inter operability of devices, networks and applications are to the ensured. Independent certifying agencies are interested to supervise and certify compliance should be encouraged. More and more automations make it necessary to provide more sophisticated safety and security measure. Think of a driverless car which lacks the presence of a person with sense, sympathy expertise and wisdom behind the steering where to take reflux actions on emergencies. Hence, it is very important to provide the best tech-tools to the future vehicles, for which all of us are eagerly waiting for.
Reverse Pedestrian Detection
News
Harman International is developing a safety system to help eliminate the blind spots. Reverse Pedestrian Detection combines data from a range of existing Harman technologies fitted to the car, including a rear camera and sensor, to detect pedestrians behind the vehicle. In one of its most critical uses, it can successfully detect smaller children, aged between 12 and 23 months, who are most vulnerable to being hit. The Reverse Pedestrian Detection technology uses advanced computer vision methods and a fish eye camera to detect pedestrians behind the vehicle and fuses it with data from the ultrasonic sensors for close pedestrian verification. To improve the accuracy, the application also uses the steering wheel angle and speed for calculating probable collision trajectories.
Driver View
Conventional Reverse Camera View
DGX-1 for driverless vehicles NVIDIA recently unveiled an integrated system with the computing throughput of 250 servers. The NVIDIA DGX-1 will help in AI applications. It’s designed to create HD maps and keep them updated, using the compute power of NVIDIA DRIVE PX 2 in the car and NVIDIA Tesla GPUs in the data centre.

Reverse Pedestrian Detection Camera View
EYERIS 3.0 camera-based ADAS EYERIS Generation 3.0 system has improved field of view as well as the camera resolution. As part of a fusion system with radar in the front of the vehicle, the system performs functions related to the vehicles’ lane keeping, automatic high beam, automatic emergency braking and adaptive cruise control features.
