Chinese SUV manufacturer Great Wall Motors has selected UK company 7207 Delphi to provide a suite of active safety technologies for its next-generation SUVs. The Great Wall Haval series of SUVs have been the best-selling SUV in China for 14 consecutive years.
 
Beginning in 2019, Delphi will supply its intelligent forward view camera (IFV), mid-range radars (MRR) and short-range radars (SRR) to Great Wall Motors for its SUV products.

Delphi’s IFV offers vehicle manufacturers a scalable architecture for their forward-looking safety system. The camera uses a single imager and enables target classification, sensing and tracking capability, required for multiple safety functions including lane departure warning, forward collision warning, automatic headlight control and pedestrian detection.

The company’s high performance SRR offers 360-degree sensing and is able to effectively identify objects and distinguish space in complex and disorderly environments. The SRR supplied to GWM features a safe exit alert feature that prevents a collision between the vehicle and cyclists when passenger or driver exits the vehicle, while the SRR enables advanced emergency braking in urban driving and basic adaptive cruise control.

    Reducing detection costs benefits intersection management
    The continuing, favourable performance-versus-cost situation concerning detection and monitoring technologies is driving the proliferation of intelligence across road networks. The effective and safe management of intersections is a focus for network operators and systems manufacturers alike. The most complicated of road environments, and statistically among the least safe, intersections enjoy particular emphasis in longer-term work on cooperative infrastructure solutions. However there are current developm

    Adaptive cruise control can mitigate phantom traffic jams, says Ford
    Phantom traffic jams can be minimised through adaptive cruise control (ACC) technology, says Ford. These traffic jams occur when one driver hits the brakes and causes a chain reaction of other drivers tapping their brakes which causes traffic flow to halt. Ford conducted a test alongside Vanderbilt University researchers on a closed test track involving 36 vehicles across three lanes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2GYfXxVn2Oc The motor company says the main causes of phantom jams are human fa

    With the exception of Generation Y (1977-1994), all other generational groups are becoming more sceptical of self-driving technology, which poses a new challenge to car manufacturers and technology developers, according to the J.D. Power 2017 US Tech Choice Study. The study was carried out in January-February 2017 and is based on an online survey of more than 8,500 consumers who purchased/leased a new vehicle in the past five years. “In most cases, as technology concepts get closer to becoming reality, cons
