Continuing to pour money into research and development new jaguar and land rover driving assistive technology

Driver Assistance

(January 6, 2015) British luxury car brand jaguar land rover always praise on investment and development in the field of driving, the "360 - degree virtual windshield city" and "virtual with car navigation" is to reduce the accidents, jaguar and land rover developing a new concept of technology. In addition, the jaguar land rover also committed to the promotion of unmanned vehicles, bring good driving experience for drivers. Through the study of these projects, jaguar land rover is designed to the latest vision technology is introduced into the public's daily life, in both drivers, pedestrians and other road users demand at the same time, also provide the commercialization of global significance for urban traffic solutions.

"360 - degree virtual city windshield" view big different

Today, provide for drivers pillar and the roof outside without sunscreen all 360 vision technology has become a reality, this is the new start of jaguar and land rover research project - "360 - degree virtual windshield" city. The technology, by giving the car pack each pillar of the car on A screen, which can real-time display are located around the body A, B, C column corresponding blind area in the pictures taken by camera. When the vehicle steering, overtaking or passing through the intersection, transparent car column will automatically response system, make the car around column produces perspective effect.

Equipped with advanced display transparent car column can not only make roads all around the be clear at a glance, more important is through the auto mobile virtual windshield screen aperture, cause the attention of the driver in time, to some extent, is also to ensure the safety of other vehicles and pedestrians.

Jaguar land rover technology research and development director Wolfgang Epple, said: "our ultimate goal is to reduce the happening of the accident, improving urban driving experience, jaguar land rover team is developing the technology, not only can improve the driving vision, can timely provide the required information for drivers." This way of information display will not distract the driver, but make it always pay attention to the road ahead, to help the rider to calmly deal with all kinds of bad road conditions.

With car "" virtual auxiliary navigation path

Through data interconnection with the cloud, can give full play to the 360 - degree virtual windshield another potential city. When connected to the city infrastructure and supporting business, virtual city windshield can provide various kinds of information from oil to the available parking space, make the driver of the whole. In addition, networked cars will also be able to improve the navigation function, using the reference more eye-catching landmark such as bars, shops, to help the driver driving choices, rather than merely relying on the road or street name.

To jaguar land rover, the most direct and most effective way of navigation, or is to follow a car knows best route guide - so the r&d team is developing with car navigation "virtual" technique, namely in the driver's front windshield falls out of a car virtual images, with the driver to the destination. Imagine the driver if it can be freely without having to see road signs in the city, also do not need in distracted driving to find a parking space, it will be a matter of how comfortable at home. If the head-up display all information will be presented to the driver, so they don't need to go to another easily, searching, and eye can always focus on the road ahead.

Promotion of "unmanned driving" benefit the public

Of interest in using the advanced level of technology transfer at the same time, the jaguar land rover is committed to the promotion of unmanned vehicles, mainly participated in by the British government authorities, Britain's leading automotive technology companies of the UK and the relevant academic institutions Autodrive league two key parts of the project: the first is to develop and test a new generation of driving auxiliary (ADAS) technology, and in Milton Keynes and coventry real road conditions, through the half range auto test with the technology. Second, the development and evaluation by the UK AutoDrive project designed for pedestrian environment light automatically cockpit, jaguar land rover's researchers for the human-machine interface (HMI) strategy, and dominate the commissioning of the cockpit technology in real environment.

Dr, Wolfgang Epple said: "we need to make everyone believe that a unmanned or almost completely unmanned vehicle is safe and reliable, and can bring good ride experience."

Jaguar land rover is working on a new generation of assistive technology in ensuring the driving pleasure at the same time, can also be driver needed, will automatically switch to the vehicle driving condition, and the goal is to help the rider to improve the ability of automatic driving, and finally realize the vehicle road and off-road driving function of demand.

Whether use the transparent roof supporting technology for the driver to provide 360 degrees outside vision, or through the falls out in front of the virtual cars for the driver in the busy city road auxiliary navigation, or for unmanned vehicles, jaguar land rover has always focused on looking forward to the development of science and technology innovation, its vision is to provide a kind of diversified technology choice, between different road users to truly satisfy, give attention to both their needs.
