Abstract:
This work describes recent advances in the analysis of driver aggressiveness in real road environments, based on on-board sensors, and Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) with GPS information. In order to provide driver behaviour identification, a low-cost hardware architecture had been developed to retrieve Controller Area Network (CAN) Bus information. These data, combined with the IMU and the GPS, allow to provide driver behaviour identification. Therefore, features such as steering angle, throttle pressed percentage, linear accelerations, etc. are fused to classify driver behaviour through an expert system. This development has been exposed in real-traffic situations, with 10 different drivers. Tool showed, will allow researchers, drivers, and insurance companies to better understand risky driving behaviours.
