DARPA 무인차 대회 우승과 구글 자율주행 자동차로 유명한 세바스찬 스런 스탠포드대 교수는 18살이 되던 해에 가장 친한 친구를 교통사고로 잃었고, 그것을 계기로 계기로 무인차 개발에 나서게 되었다고 한다. 현재 대부분의 교통사고는 운전자의 과실로 발생하며, 기계의 보조나 자동제어가 있다면 대부분 예방할 수 있다. 또한 자동으로 차선을 유지하고 차간거리를 유지하게 해준다면 도로의 교통 수용량을 2배 내지 3배로 높일 수 있으며, 도로에서 보내는 시간과 연료를 절약할 수 있다. 현재 지능형 자동차 및 도로 인프라 기술은 이러한 운전자의 안전성, 편의성, 교통 효율성, 에너지 절약을 달성하기 위한 자동차와 인프라 간의 협력형 ITS(C-ITS: cooperative ITS) 방향으로 기술개발이 이루어지고 있으며, 본 고에서는 이와 관련된 차량 자동유도 요소 기술 및 동향에 대해서 살펴본다.

This paper describes the development of unmanned vehicle remote control system which is configured with steering and accelerating/braking hardware to improve the sense of reality and safety of control. Generally, in these case of the remote control system, a joystick-type device is used for steering and accelerating/braking control of unmanned vehicle in most cases. Other systems have been developing using simple steering wheel, but there is no function of that feedback the feeling of driving situation to users and it mostly doesn't include the accelerating/braking control hardware. The technology of feedback means that a reproducing the feeling of current driving situation through steering and accelerating/braking hardware when driving a vehicle in person. In addition to studying feedback technologies that reduce unfamiliarity in remote control of unmanned vehicles, it is necessary to develop the remote control system with hardware that can improve sense of reality. Therefore, in this study, the reliable remote control system is developed and required system specification is defined for applying force-feedback haptic control technology developed through previous research. The system consists of a steering-wheel module similar to a normal vehicle and an accelerating/braking pedal module with actuators to operate by feedback commands. In addition, the software environment configured by CAN communication to send feedback commands to each modules. To verify the reliability of the remote control system, the force-feedback haptic control algorithms developed through previous research were applied, to assess the behavior of the algorithms in each situation.

The important goal of the unmanned vehicle technology is on controlling the direction and speed of the vehicle with information acquired from various sensors, without the intervention of the driver, until the vehicle reaches to its destination. In this paper, our focus is on developing an unmanned conveyance system by exploiting low-cost sensing technology for indoor factories or warehouses, where the moving range of the vehicle is limited. To this end, we propose an architecture of a scalable automated conveyance system. Our proposed system includes a number of unmanned conveyance vehicles, and the efficient control mechanism of the vehicles without neither conflicts nor deadlock between the vehicles being simultaneously moved. By implementing the real prototype of the system, we successfully verify the efficiency and functionality of the proposed system.

This paper introduces a vision based autonomous mini mobile robot that is an approach to produce real autonomous vehicle. Previous autonomous vehicles are dependent on PC, because of complexity of designing hardware, difficulty of installation and abundant calculations. In this paper, we present an autonomous motile robot system that has abilities of accurate steering, quick movement in high speed and intelligent recognition as a stand-alone system using a mono camera. The proposed system has been implemented on mini track of which width is 25~30cm, and length is about 200cm. Test robot can run at average 32.9km/h speed on straight lane and average 22.3km/h speed on curved lane with 30~40m radius. This system provides a model of autonomous mobile robot adapted a lane recognition algorithm in odor to make real autonomous vehicle easily.

Understanding lane markings in a live video captured from a moving vehicle is essential to build services for intelligent vehicles such as LDWS(Lane Departure Warning Systems), unmanned vehicles, video-based car navigation systems. In this paper, we present a novel approach to recognize the color of lane markings and the lane number that he/she is driving on. More specifically, we present a background-color removal approach to understand the color of lane markings for various illumination conditions, such as backlight, sunset, and so on. In addition, we present a probabilistic network approach to decide the lane number. According to our experimental results, the proposed idea shows promising results to detect lane number in a various illumination conditions and road environments.

본 연구에서 개발한 KARV-2의특징은 저가의 소형시스템이다. 4인승 소형지프차에 모든 컨트 롤시스템을 장착하고도 외부에 별로 표가 나지 않을 정도임에도 그 성능 면에서는 고속도로를 자율주행할 수 있다는 점이다. 첨단기술의 개발과 더불어 이 차량의 성능도 계속 개선될 것이다. 언젠가는 궤도 위를 달리는 기차와 같이 정확하고 안전하게 주행할 수 있어, 탑승자는 마음놓고 그저 신문을 읽거나 음료수를 마시면서 스쳐 가는 경관을 즐길 수 있는 시기가 곧 도래할 것 으로 믿는 다. 이를 위하여는 차량작동의 신뢰도 향상이 절대 전제조건이다. 앞으로는 일기조건 이나 주야에 관계없이 마치궤도 위를 달리는 기차처럼 안전하게 주행할 수 있는 시스템의 개발이 필요하다. 또한 고속도로가 아닌 시내주행을 위해서는 노면표식인식, 도로표지판 인식, 신호등 인식 등 해결되어야 할 문제들이 산적해 있는 상황이다.

In this research, the main theme is the system integration of driving simulator and unmanned vehicle. The total system is composed of the mater system and the slave system. The master system has a cockpit system and the driving simulator. The slave system means an unmanned vehicle, which is composed of the actuator system the sensory system and the vision system. The communication system is composed of RS-232C serial communication system which combines the master system with the slave system. To integrate both systems, the signal classification and system characteristics considered DSP(Digital Signal Processing) filter is designed with signal sampling and measurement theory. In addition, to simulate the motion of tele-operated unmanned vehicle on the driving simulator, the classical washout algorithm is applied to this filter, because the unmanned vehicle does not have a limited working space, while the driving simulator has a narrow working space and it is difficult to cover all the motion of the unmanned vehicle. Because the classical washout algorithm has a defect of fixed high pass later, fuzzy logic is applied to reimburse it through an adaptive filter and scale factor for realistic motion generation on the driving simulator.

Recently, interest in unmanned vehicles, autonomous vehicles and connected cars has increased, and autonomous driving capability is also increasing. Depending on the autonomous driving ability, the maximum number of steps is divided into 6 steps. The higher the step, the less the involvement of the person in the running, and the person does not need to be involved at the highest stage. Today's autonomous vehicles have been developed in stages 4 to 5, but solutions are not clearly defined in case of an accident, so only the test run is possible. Such an accident occurring during traveling is almost inevitable, and it is judged who has made a mistake in case of an accident, which increases the punishment for the accident. Although a black box is used to clarify such a part, it is easy to delete a photographed image, and it is difficult to solve an accident such as a hit-and-run. In this paper, we design a driving record system using black chain to solve such an accident.
