“…This makes car designers have to pursue a compromised A-pillar design method (while meeting the requirements of the NCAP collision avoidance test, the width of the A-pillar should be reduced as much as possible). Normally, the width of the Apillar of a car is about 8cm, resulting in a 6.8° blind spot on the left side of the driver and a 2.3° blind spot on the right side [4] , as shown in Figure 1.…”

For safety reasons, the current car's A‐pillars are generally designed to be relatively wide, causing a large visual blind area and resulting in a great safety hazard in driving process[1]. This paper presents a visual display system for the A‐pillar to eliminate the blind area, which combines face detection, pupil detection, gaze calculation and image extraction module, and achieves displaying effect of scene moving with people and seamless splicing. Only the head position is calculated in traditional methods because the head position cannot represent the gaze direction, causing a large spliced error. In this paper, when calculating the spliced image, gaze calculation algorithm is added to the visual system, which greatly improves the calculation accuracy of the spliced image, reaching 1.6°, and improves final splicing performance.

This article presents a short description of mathematical driver models. In the literature, there are no models that are generally considered fully satisfactory for use in analysing drivers’ behaviour in emergencies. This paper presents a concept of model, which includes two sub-models related to the driver’s defensive manoeuvres—avoiding the obstacle and braking. This article describes a model used for a simple road situation—a single obstacle (pedestrian) appearing on the road in front of the vehicle. In the model, the method of artificial potential fields was used, but it was enriched with the concept of safety zones around the vehicle and obstacles for three variants of the proposed shape, namely a rectangle, a circle, and an ellipse. In the simulations, parameters important for the model’s operation were used. The proposed model can be used for the simulation of human behaviour in specialised programs for accident reconstruction and in the future in assistant systems.
