3 What is the challenge?

4 Mobility as social challenge Inspirating factors for development 1 Zero Emission 2 Demographic pressure 3 Risk of accidents Fuel-consumption reduction Reducing emission Support of insecure leaders Increase the elderly mobility Avoidance of the accidents by reducing the effect of human mistakes 4 Increasing traffic density Management of transport process Comfortable, time-saving travel 5 Assistance systems Intelligent sensors for appropriate process Intelligent actuators (steering, brakes, etc.) Source: VDA What is the challenge? 4

5 Multi-level approach There is no one single good solution Optimization of the components and the whole conventional drive train system Introduction of new alternative fuels, drive systems, enhance energy recuperation Control of vehicle groups on different levels: traffic control, platoon control, fleet control What is the challenge? 5

6 Mobility as social challenge Technology is available Longitudinal control Transverse control Parking, maneuvering ACC traffic-jam assistant emergency braking assistant Lane-changing assistant, lanekeeping assitant Automated parking assistant Lighting Drive supervision Environmental supervision Adaptive long-distance lighting, adaptive cornering ligths Fatigue supervision Traffic sign detection Source: VDA What is the challenge? 6

7 Technical background Systems available nowadays Traffic-jam pilot Highway pilot Advanced Driving Assisatance Google car Pikes Peak Emergency Brake Assistance Source: VDA What is the challenge? 7

8 Technology is available since a long time Chaffeur II demonstrator in 1999 What is the challenge? 8

9 Increase level of automation and co-operative control Increase safety Reduce fatalities Increase efficiency Communication is introduced in vehicles Telematics Increase of level of assistance / automation Reduce emissions Support competiveness Governments are requested to provide a framework What is the challenge? 9

10 Vehicle - driver Change in driver s responsibility Levels of automatization The driver controls the vehicle, both longitudinally and transversely. No active intervening system. The role and responsibility of the driver just like today The driver controls the vehicle, either longitudinally or transversely. The intelligent systems intervene in the other direction. The driver constantly supervises the systems. The intelligent systems take the control in both longitudinal and transversal direction for a given time. The role and responsibility of the driver change, legal background The driver don t have to constantly supervise the system. The intelligent system fully takes control, intervenes, even in critical situations. The driver has enough time to take control. The vehicle is fully automated, the driver does not have to supervise the system. Only driver Driver support Partially automated Highly automated Fully automated Level Level of of automatization What is the challenge? 10

11 Mobility as social challenge Change in driver s responsibility TODAY 2017 TOMORROW < 2020 FUTURE > 2020 Lane departure warning Longitudinal control Emergency brake system Active steering Object detection in dead spot ACC + LKA Automated driving: The driver can do other activities Autonomous driving: Low following distance, lower fuel consumption DRIVER IS PART OF THE VEHICLE CONTROL FAIL SAFE SYSTEM DRIVER IS INACTIVE FAIL TOLERANT SYSTEM Source: Volvo, Knorr-Bremse What is the challenge? 11

12 Technical background Technology is ready - is it enough? Architecture Communication Rendundant central control unit Redundant communication in the car and with the outside (V2V, V2I) Power supply Redundant, galvanically separated energy storage and supervision system Sensors Redundant or error-tolerant sensors to supervise the condition of the vehicle Actuators What is the challenge? Redundant or error-tolerant intervention elements in the vehicle (steering wheel, brake, etc.) 12

13 Non-technical aspects Vienna treaty (1968) Basic requirements from 1968: All vehicles shall have a driver The driver shall control the vehicle all the constantly 23rd of March, 2016: A modification to the principles above, gives permission for automatization if the driver can overrule and turn it off What is the challenge? 13

14 How things will be combined? Platooning is a good example! Vehicles are travelling in a platoon are: Co-operatively controlled (communication among the members) Utilizing the road infrastructure in a more efficient way Reducing the fuel consumption and emission of the set of the vehicles Minimizing driver s fatigue and thus Probability of the accidents will be reduced What is the challenge? 14

15 In some sense: yes Optimal bio-intelligent system Transfered goods and navigation system Primary environment observer Redundant observer Transfer of the motion demand Motion coordination Biomechanical Motion realization What is the challenge? 15

16 Architecture in more technical way Corresponds to the bio-intelligent system Physical separation Functional separation CABIN Only Electrical Interface New operating philosophy: sidestick,... ACC, lane follower, autonomous driving Collision avoidance speed vector MMI (Man-Machine Interface) Automation of inputs Predictive input correction DRIVELINE What is the challenge? Translation to powertrain component inputs ESP, ESP with steering Powertrain co-ordination Reactive input correction Mechatronic subsystems: steering, engine, transmission... Execution 16

17 Models of Mobility will Change Non-technical questions will also appear Source: Technologiereview, VDA Can we take away the enjoyment of driving from the driver? As different to the other co-operatively drivable vehicles (plane, boat, rail) we must be ready to manage the vehicles to handle the dangerous situations while having human participants with unperfect and very different abilities? What is the base of decision if we must choose from two bad options? Liability and legal concerns remain open for a while New business models/players will appear New concerns will rise: how can we guarantee, that autonomous vehicles will not be put in non-proper use, etc. Number of test/use cases can exponentially increase Model of operation 17
