Measuring the effect of the rainfall on the windshield in terms of visual performance.
Driving through rain results in reduced visual performance, and car designers have proposed countermeasures in order to reduce the impact of rain on driving performance. In this paper, we propose a methodology dedicated to the quantitative estimation of the loss of visual performance due to the falling rain. We have considered the rain falling on the windshield as the main factor which reduces ...
متن کاملAn Initiative on Connected Vehicles Series
A S I stated in my January editorial, we have started a 2 publication initiative on connected vehicles (CVs) in this 3 journal. Although there have been intensive research efforts on 4 this topic in the last decade under the umbrella of vehicle ad 5 hoc networks, addressing the communications and network-6 ing aspects of CVs, CV technology did not really catch on 7 until the U.S. Department of ...
متن کاملConnected Vehicles- Infrastructure UTC
The goal of the Infrastructure Safety Assessment in a Connected Vehicle Environment project was to develop a method to identify infrastructure safety “hot spots” using connected vehicle data. The premise was to show that using connected vehicle basic safety messages to detect hot spots could allow for a quicker detection than traditional methods using police-reported crashes. This is because th...
متن کاملLaser wipers
We present a novel application of lasers for removing particle deposits on inaccessible optical windows. The particular example arises with respect to cryostats filled with liquid helium. We explain the observation in terms of the radiation force acting on the adhering particles. We estimate the radiation forces to be much larger than all other forces acting on the particle.
متن کاملApplication of robust, high-accuracy positioning for autonomous ground vehicles
In this paper we review the need for robust, high-accuracy positioning for path guidance in the presence of large structures (such as buildings and trees) and for the integration of sensor data. Such capability is necessary in many applications that require precision over vast areas of operation. We find that unless integrated tightly, combined INS/GPS systems diverge significantly when line of...
