Purpose and goal
The aim is to increase road safety by developing advanced steer-by-wire (SbW) technology for ADAS systems through shared control between the driver and the vehicle´s systems. The primary goal is to develop and test steering strategies for SbW systems through theoretical and empirical tests. An empirically based benefit analysis will illustrate the potential benefits on a larger scale. Testing will make the result relevant and the leap to customer benefit small.
Expected effects and result
The results will include new knowledge, publications, patents and practical implementations of SbW technology in future vehicles, evaluated and reviewed through the academic processes. The project will generate a technical doctorate, which guarantees the knowledge building in the field of shared vehicle control and in SbW technology.
Planned approach and implementation
The project will consist of 5 sub-projects with aim to - Build a prototype car that is tailored to the needs of the project - Accident analysis and scenario generation as a basis for evaluation - Develop algorithms and strategies for the regulation of SbW that enable shared regulation - Carry out testing of algorithms on a test track with test subjects and prototype vehicles - Carry out a utility analysis based on the project´s findings during testing
