The purpose of the present study was to compare and analyze the differential effects of in-vehicle electronic device usage types(searching for targeted destinations in navigational purpose, watching TV in entertain purpose, and dialing a cellular-phone in phone-usage purpose) on driver's front-to-rear-end collision avoidance behavior, and to find effective collision warning format for this behavior. The result indicated that (1) the drivers showed more impaired collision avoidance performances when they were asked to search the name of targeted destination than the other task requirements, and (2) auditory warning appeared to be most effective among the other types of warning. In particular, it was suggested that the "Visual-Only" collision warning could induce most undesirable result when the drivers were engaged in both visual and auditory information processing.

This driving simulation study examined the effect of driver's state driving anger(SDA) on collision avoidance(CA) and situation awareness(SA), as well as the moderating effect of driver's positive and negative affect(PA and NA) on the relationship between the driver's SDA and SA. The results showed the followings. First, high SDA group collided with the leading vehicle more frequently than low SDA group. Second, neither the driver's trait driving anger(TDA) nor PA/NA yielded significant changes in SA after SDA was induced. Third, high SDA tended to lower SA but this tendency was observed only when the driver's NA was high. These results suggested that SDA than TDA is a significant deteriorating factor of the driver's SA, and more importantly, SDA should be considered with other affect-relating variable such as NA in explaining the effect of SDA on driver's SA and CA.

Except the collision avoidance performance related to the rapid lane change, the 4WS vehicle has better dynamic stability and handling performance than the conventional 2WS vehicle which has close relation with the driver's safety, a 4WS conrol method with the effect of steering wheel angular velocity is proposed based on the fact that the driver steers abruptly the steering wheel to avoid the collision. And the effects of the proposed 4WS control method are investigated on the dynamic stability and handling performance by using the ISO lane change test code.

최근 자동차의 안전성을 한층 강조하는 ASV 개념의 도입이 보편화되면서 이를 구현하기 위한 여러가지 기능들이 고안되어 지고 있는데, 그 중에서도 추돌경보 및 회피기능, 야간보행자 검지기능, 후측방 장애물검지 기능, 차간거리 일정유지 제어기능 등에 있어서 공통적으로 주행중 거리계측이 필요하다. 본고에서는 ASV기술에서 필요하고 또한 중요한 핵심기술인 차량탑재용 거리계측기술에 대하여 현재 실용화되어 있거나 실용가능성이 있는 기술을 수단과 방식으로 나누어 각각의 원리와 특징에 대해 소개하였다. 수단으로서는 초음파, 레이저, 밀리파를 제시하였으며, 방식으로는 펄스시간차방식, 진폭변조 및 위상복조방식, 주파수변조방식을 소개하였다. 또한 비젼은 이들과는 계측원리와 신호처리가 매우 상이하고 본특집에서 별도로 상세히 소개될 것이기 때문에 간략히 소개하였다.

Recent advanced sensors and communication technologies have been widely applied to advanced safety vehicle (ASV) for reducing traffic accident and injury severity. To apply the advanced safety vehicle technologies, it is important to quantify the safety benefits, which is a fundamental for justifying application. This study proposed a methodology for quantifying the effectiveness of the advanced driver assistant system (ADAS), and applied the methodology to lane departure warning system (LDWS) and automatic emergency braking system (AEBS) which are typical advanced driver assistant systems. When the proposed methodology is applied to 2008-2010 gyeonggi-province crash data, LDWS would reduce about 10~14% of relevant crashes such as head-on, run-off-the road, rollover and fixed-object collisions on the road. In addition, AEBS could potentially prevent about 50% of total rear-end crashes. The outcomes of this study support decision making for developing not only vehicular technology but also relevant safety policies.
