ABSTRACT

Although automated assistance in driving emergencies aims to improve the safety of our roads by avoiding or mitigating the effects of road traffic accidents, the behavioural implications of such systems remain unknown. While steps have been taken earlier in this book to model system behaviour following the introduction of a Pedestrian AEB system via the application of Distributed Cognition to driving emergencies, the purpose of this chapter is to implement Phase 2 of the Systems Design Framework to highlight issues within design strategies used for other AEB systems, as highlighted in Figure 5.1.
