Leading vehicle detection for forward collision warning and driver monitoring

由Viewnyx开发的Lookout驾驶安全系统可以持续观察卡车前方的道路，根据驾驶员的活动拍摄视频，并对危险驾驶情况发出警告。目的是通过解决导致碰撞的主要原因：驾驶失误、分心和困倦，帮助车队车主降低驾驶责任成本。该系统**为安全经理提供司机和车队风险评估报告和工具，以促进主动指导和**培训，以消除高风险行为。Viewnyx希望通过增加一个基于摄像头的物体检测功能来扩展Lookout单元的功能，以识别车辆路径上的物体，并评估与它们的距离以及它们相对于车辆的速度。这将使系统能够提供新的功能，如向前碰撞警告和识别高风险行为，如驾驶过于靠近前面的车辆。该项目的目的是为“瞭望”单元开发一种原型车辆探测和测距能力，使Viewnyx能够评估添加该功能的可行性，并为将该功能完全集成到“瞭望”系统中奠定基础。

The Lookout Driving Safety System developed by Viewnyx continuously views the road in front of a truck, capturing videos based**upon driver activity and generating warnings for dangerous driving situations. The objective is to assist fleet owners in lowering**their driving liability costs by addressing the main cause of collisions: driving error, distraction and drowsiness. The system**provides provides Safety Managers with driver and fleet risk assessment reports and tools to facilitate proactive coaching and**training to eliminate high-risk behaviours. Viewnyx is looking to expand the functionality of the Lookout unit by adding a camerabased**object detection capability to identify objects in the path of the vehicle and assess the distance to them and their speed**relative to the vehicle. This would enable the system to provide new functionality such as forward collision warning and**identification of high risk behaviours such as driving too close to the vehicle in front. The aim of this project would be to develop a**prototype vehicle detection and ranging capability for the Lookout unit that would allow Viewnyx to assess the feasibility of adding**this functionality and form the basis for the full integration of this functionality into the Lookout system.
