Occupant Protection: Association of Occupant Injury Severity and GenderOver the past years, concern has been raised that women might not be adequately addressed in the development of passive safety for cars and the design of occupant restraint systems, like seat belts and airbags. The current range of anthropomorphic test devices ("crash test dummies") used in crash testing was seen as part of the problem in this context. Some studies that analysed U.S. crashworthiness databases came to the conclusion that females have a higher risk of sustaining injuries of MAIS2+ severity than their male counterparts.

On the Road with Autonomous Vehicles - Safe and reliableAn important challenge for the acceptance of autonomous driving is to ensure the safety of road users without risking a loss of speed. A team of scientists from the Fraunhofer Institute for Experimental Software Engineering IESE, the Fraunhofer Institute for Cognitive Systems IKS, and the University of York has now developed a dynamic risk management system as part of a ref-erence safety architecture. This provides a vehicle with a better understanding of current driving hazards. AI capabilities are used to analyze and account for influencing factors such as the driving behavior of other road users.

Using a wide-angle stereo camera, the sensing system enables collision damage mitigation braking at intersections and on single-track roads. With its enhanced safety equipment, the new ELF is the first light-duty truck in Japan to be equipped with braking that not only mitigates collision damage from the front, but also for right and left turns at intersections.

The GST test system consists of the Soft Car 360 - an impactable dummy vehicle target attached to a low-profile robotic platform designed to be run over by vehicles. In this article we will delve into the history of this solution, which has had a significant impact of the development of active safety systems globally.

Exploring new Methods for increasing Safety and Reliability of Autonomous VehiclesA new study finds human supervisors have the potential to reduce barriers to deploying autonomous vehicles. When we think of getting on the road in our cars, our first thoughts may not be that fellow drivers are particularly safe or careful - but human drivers are more reliable than one may expect. For each fatal car crash in the United States, motor vehicles log a whopping hundred million miles on the road.

Virginia Tech Transportation Institute and NEC demonstrates Intersection SafetyThe Virginia Tech Transportation Institute (VTTI) and NEC Corporation of America (NEC) announced they have combined private 5G and artificial intelligence (AI) to create a roadway warning system that could potentially saves lives. VTTI and NEC's research have created the potential to identify dangerous traffic conditions and hazards, such as the approach of pedestrians or animals, to provide warnings to drivers. These tests were conducted from January to March 2023 in Blacksburg, Virginia on the Virginia Smart Roads, one of the only facilities in the world that can conduct these advanced tests.

New Research shows Self-driving Cars can make Traffic slowerA new study finds that “connected” vehicles, which share data with each other wirelessly, significantly improve travel time through intersections but automated vehicles can actually slow down travel time through intersections if they are not connected to each other. The culprit? Safety.
