Draft proposal to add provisions for 2-step HMI for Cat. C ACSF systems while keeping the main performance of the system e.g. rear sensor range, critical situations, minimum distance and minimum operating speed, etc.

Initial draft proposal towards the definition of a “General Classification System” to replace the “Determination of the acceptable operational domain". The classification system would allow regulators to specify specific conditions under which a given system operates and thereby more clearly define the regulatory requirements. For example, a system defined as “highway” might require safe operation on roadways equipped with a physical separation that divides the traffic moving in opposite directions and which have at least two lanes in the direction the vehicles are driving. Moreover, since such roadways are prohibited to cyclists and pedestrians, a system classified as “highway” would not require pedestrian or cyclist detection (at least not to the degree that an urban system would). The proposal envisions a Class I, II, III, … nomenclature.

Initial proposal for “external” (roadway, speed, etc.) and “internal” (driver availability recognition, data recording, transition request protocols, etc.) for Category B2 ACSF (Level 3 lane keeping systems).

OICA/CLEPA review of industry positions on provisions for the proposed regulation on light vehicle AEBS.

To support and prepare the introduction of Cyclist-AEB systems and the appropriate consumer tests of such systems, TNO set up a project with passenger car manufacturers and suppliers with the support of research and development partners (such as BASt and 4activeSystems) to develop a testing system and test protocol for CATS, Cyclist-AEB Testing System. This report describes the setup of the project and the approach that was followed from the start in June 2014 to the conclusion in June 2016. Moreover, the report summarises the most important results out of the project.
