Abstract
Advanced Driver Assistance System or ADAS are systems used to help the driver in the
driving process. When designed with a safe Human-Machine interface, it should increase
car safety and more generally road safety. Such systems were trying to play a great role
in achieving the top safety for the driver. And according to many statistics and researches
done on accidents that happen due to collision between cyclists and cars, my main project is
to work on detecting the critical situations for the driver, thus informing him/her about the
accident that may happen. Using special sensors in the car itself and by calculating the car
dynamics, in addition to using data from the smartphone of the cyclist; one can be able to
know the critical situation for the car. Fusion occurs between dierent sensors to detect this
situation; so in this project, radar and GPS data were fused together to detect the case where
the cyclist is about to hit the car, thus we can give out a warning. iBeacon was studied and
analyzed for the usage in the fusion, but there were some problems in the initialization, so it
was not used. The system can prevent accidents between bicycles and cars, especially in the
case of door opening, intersections or blindspot. So the future collisions between cyclists and
motor vehicles at cornering situations in the crossing areas are to be prevented. Because of
their narrow silhouette and often high speed, cyclists are often overlooked by-turning motor
vehicles. A driver assistance system for cyclists‘ detection can reduce this risk. The results
throughout the project showed that such a system can work perfectly but with some errors
xation, as it was proved that GPS is not considered a reliable tool because it gives a range
of accuracy error. So nally, two systems were created as simulation; an ideal system and
a real system which contains the errors from the GPS and the radar. Afterwards, some
technical details were added to the real system to be able to overcome the errors and reach
the same output as the ideal one.
