Development of a New Methodology for Objective Assessment of Advanced Driver Assistance System

The aim of this project is to explain the different conceptions of comfort inside a vehicle and to create a rating system that can consider people differences. Until now, all the systems are developed with a controller with the ability to drive alone the vehicle. These new systems do not take into account the differences in how people feel comfortable inside the vehicle. Along with this work, it is given a suggestion on how there could be introduced this differentiation. However, the most important part is related to the implementation of software that aimed at the evaluation of common highway manoeuvres. Nowadays it is based on some fixed boundary conditions and the thesis wants to suggest how to uncouple the rating of the manoeuvres to this fixed constrains. Thus, a new rating methodology is developed and explained in details. The study starts with an analysis of benchmark data and a detailed evaluation of the functionalities and rating of AVL-DRIVE(TM) ADAS. Five different common manoeuvres are investigated, explained, discussed and evaluated.
