According to the survey of the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways, approximately 1.5 lakh people die on Indian roads every year. As we step into the future, the rise of automated driving and Advanced Driver Assist Systems (ADAS) offers a transformative solution with an average of 4 accidents averted per month/ truck. It promises to reshape the way we navigate the world.
Traditional mobility woes
- Fuel Inefficiency: Traditional mobility methods heavily rely on fossil fuels, contributing to higher costs of fuel emissions. The inefficiency of fuel consumption not only drains our resources but also requires major maintenance costs.Â
- Safety Concerns: Despite the advancement in road safety regulations,90% of road accidents happen due to the cause of human error. Distracted driving, fatigue, and recklessness contribute to a staggering number of lives lost and injuries sustained each year.Â
- Impact on Lives and Economy: Beyond the human toll, road accidents have a significant impact on economies around the world. Medical expenses, property damage, and lost productivity create a financial burden that affects businesses
The rise of automated driving
Enter Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), a suite of technologies designed to enhance driver safety and improve vehicle efficiency. This autonomous vehicles technology encompasses a range of features, all working in harmony to create a safer driving experience. Cameras, dash displays, warning signals, sensors, emergency braking, and danger recognition are just a few of the safety features of an ADAS-equipped vehicle. Utilizing these safety features lowers the possibility of being in an accident, potentially saving our life, money and time.
- Gradual Transition to Autonomy
ADAS serves as the stepping stone towards autonomous vehicles. By gradually introducing automation into various aspects of driving, paving the way for a future where vehicles can navigate leading to higher driver and product safety. This evolution is shaping the landscape of logistics as we know it.
- Collision Avoidance Systems
One of the primary advantages of ADAS is its ability to prevent collisions. With sensors and cameras detecting obstacles in real time. Collision avoidance systems can reduce accidents by up to 80%, and reduce harsh Breaking by 20% – 30%. This technology acts as an extra set of vigilant eyes, significantly reducing the risk of crashes.
- Coaching to drivers
Utilizing personalized feedback, coaching for safe driving behaviour is facilitated through Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS). These systems offer tailored guidance to drivers, fostering safer habits on the road. By analyzing real-time driving data and providing instant insights, ADAS encourages responsible driving practices, enhancing overall road safety and contributing to a more secure driving environment.
- Enhancing Convenience and Comfort
ADAS doesn’t just focus on safety, it also aims to enhance driving convenience. The adaptive cruise control maintains a safe following distance from the vehicle ahead by giving suggestions accordingly. This feature not only reduces driver stress but also contributes to smoother traffic flow.
- Cost reduction
ADAS offer a dual advantage of reduced costs through smoother breaking and enhanced fuel efficiency. ADAS technology anticipates potential collisions, facilitating gentler braking patterns that extend brake lifespan and lower maintenance expenses. Moreover, features like adaptive cruise control promote consistent driving, curbing aggressive acceleration and braking, which optimizes fuel usage and leads to cost savings.Â
