    This document outlines an overview of adaptive cruise control (ACC) systems. It begins with a brief history, describing the development of cruise control systems from early 20th century speed governors to modern implementations that began appearing in cars in the 1970s. The core components and functioning of ACC systems are then explained, including sensors that detect preceding vehicles and allow the vehicle to automatically adjust speed to maintain a safe distance. Potential advantages like reducing driver fatigue and traffic accidents are presented, along with some limitations. The document concludes by noting future developments may include vehicle-to-vehicle communication to allow for more cooperative adaptive cruise control systems.

    Invention of Cruise control


    HISTORY
    1910 speed control with centrifugal governor
    Modern cruise control - Ralph Teetor-1945

    First car in 1958

    Started in cars from 1974


    CRUISE CONTROL
    Cruise control - automatically controls the speed
    of a motor vehicle.

    Also known as speed control or auto cruise.

    Adjusting the throttle position to maintain a


    speed set by the driver
    ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL
    (ACC)
    Advanced version
    Keeps at steady speed
    Using sensors for detection
    Keeps safe distance
    Intelligent control
    Collision avoidance system
    MAIN COMPONENTS ACC
    Switches and pedals

    Processor or mini
    computer

    Sensor

    Electronic vacuum
    actuator
    WORKING OF ACC
    Switch on ACC.
    Set speed.
    Sensors detects vehicle ahead.
    Decelerate to ahead vehicle speed.
    Keeps safe distance
    Collision avoidance system
    When the danger of a collision is
    detected, it provides a red warning light
    that flashes on the windshield.

    The system provides an audible alert


    when it senses a reduction in traffic
    speed in vehicles ahead.
    ACCELARATION & DECELARATION
    ACC Accelerator
    Actuator controls the throttle
    CONTROL OF ACC
    BRAIN: Mini computer.
    Senses throttle position.
    Senses accelerator position.
    Adjust throttle
    Senses ahead vehicles
    LIDAR is Light Detection And Ranging.
    A laser diode was used to generate the light
    signal.
    RADAR is Radio Detection And Ranging
    It is operated by radiating energy into space and
    detecting the echo signal reflected from target

    While RADAR target is the cars rear spoiler the


    stereo camera is constantly captures all objects in
    its field of view.
    It includes millimeter wave radar linked to a
    640x480 pixel stereo camera

    ACC COMPONANTS IN A CAR
    DEALING WITH SWITCHES
    FEATURES
    Maintains a safe, comfortable distance between
    vehicles without driver interventions
    Maintains a consistent performance in poor
    visibility conditions.
    Maintains a continuous performance during road
    turns and elevation changes
    Alerts drivers by way of automatic braking.
    ADVANTAGES
    Its very useful for long driving.
    The driver is relieved from the task of careful
    acceleration, deceleration and braking in
    congested traffics.
    Can avoid unconsciously violating speed limits.
    Reduction in accident rate.
    Reduction in driver fatigue.
    Increased fuel efficiency.
    DISADVANTAGES
    Cost
    Not for heavy traffic
    Dangerous in slippery roads
    Encourages the driver to become careless.
    The ACC systems not respond directly to the
    traffic signals.
    FUTURE ASPECTS
    Co-Cooperative Adaptive cruise control or
    CACC is already being tested in California .

    ACC respond to the distance and speed of the


    car ahead ,CACC communicate with two or
    more cars and work together to avoid collision.

    Communication is quicker, reliable and


    responsive.
    ACC EQUIPED VEHICLES
    Ford fusion series
    Jaguar
    Mercedes Benz
    Volkswagen
    Audi
    Chevrolet cruze (India)
    CONCLUSION
    Current system ranges 150 meters can stop and
    slows if any obstruction
    Fully autonomous car is probably not viable in the
    foreseen future.
    Near by vehicles would be in constant
    communication with each other and act co-
    operatively.
    It will probably take decades, but car accidents
    may eventually become almost as rare as plane
    crashes are now.
