Security of tomorrow- Audi’s engineering Part 1

by Sweta

The arms race with safety and assistance systems revolves continues unabated. In current models like the Audi A6 raised the already available armada of helpers, the question of whether the driver actually still drives himself. But this is only the beginning. In the coming years we will be the vision of autonomous driving still a bit closer, as pointed Audi now on a technical workshop.

On its test track at the Munich airport, Audi has granted journalists tangible insight into the future assistance novelties. Some of those already working in practice and experiential techniques will be fairly soon, however, others come only in the medium used. In the near-assistance systems are primarily at feature enhancements that are based on existing sensor systems.

So there are many current Audi models already radar-based sensors in the front and rear, which are hergenommen for these enhancements. To the radar-based, future helpers include an intersection assistant and a rear Ausparkassistent. Here the front and back cover, two radar sensors the vehicle lateral range to measure distance, speed, and expected travel distance of vehicles in the cross traffic and to interpret. So before the driver can see the traffic, he is already at the “groping” in the street warned visually and acoustically before crossing road users.

In addition, the assistants are supplemented by a video camera with wide angle lens, and thus can get a visual display of the multimedia display in the center console, across moving traffic. Another complementary scenario is still a fairly wide lying in the future car-to-X communication. This could then communicate with other cars, cars and traffic lights and then the wlan wizard crossing warning of a possible crash scenario still significantly predictive.
