“…The physical environment is a very important factor to consider when attempting to design equipment capable of improving the driver's decision-making or behaviour because it is exteremely dynamic environment [9,10,27]. Recently, significant improvements and models were developed in the area of vehicular communication systems [2,6,8,21,25]. In fact, vehicle-to-vehicle communication (V2V) and vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) are considered as a key concept to keep roads safe [11].…”

“…Using image sensors is very important to provide the driver with the required information and warns the driver whenever necessary. In [1,2], they described the most important information, which needs to be collected, such as other vehicle's speed, direction, distance, size and type. All of this information is necessary to utilize these functions.…”

Abstract. Recently, significant improvements have been made in the area of vehicular communication systems. Furthermore, vehicle-to-vehicle communication is considered a key concept for keeping roads safe. An efficient implementation of these systems is necessary to ensure the safety of driving situations and to reduce the collision rates. This paper proposes a ContextAware Driver Assistance System that links drivers with the physical environment surrounding them using multiple types of sensors and traffic systems as well as considering the senior driver's difficulties and the system processing time. This is achieved by developing a warning system that assists drivers to avoid collisions and improve their response times. The proposed system architecture consists of a set of components to process the user's request such as parking assistance, and to provide responses and advices when needed. These components include communication, knowledge exchange, knowledge update, and contexthistory. Also, it includes other processes such as context-history manipulation, hazard detection, and hazard detection control. The main goal of the proposed system is to reduce the number of car accidents and improve driver's decisions. The NXT Robotic environment is used to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed system.
