Each year, about 1.35 million people are killed in crashes on the world’s roads, and as many as 50 million others are seriously injured, according to the World Health Organization. In the United States, fatalities rose drastically during the pandemic, leading to the largest six-month spike ever recorded, according to estimates from the U.S. Department of Transportation. Speeding, distraction, impaired driving and not wearing a seatbelt were top causes.
Artificial intelligence is already being used to enhance driving safety: cellphone apps that monitor behavior behind the wheel and reward safe drivers with perks and connected vehicles that communicate with each other and with road infrastructure.
Acusensus, based in Australia, is among the companies that employ artificial intelligence to address road safety. Its cameras — “intelligent eyes,” as Acusensus calls them — use high-resolution imaging in conjunction with machine learning to identify dangerous driving behaviors that are often difficult to detect and enforce.
“We’ve got technology that can save lives,”
Mark Etzbach, the company’s vice president of sales for North America.
In regions where precise and relevant data exists, the report noted, “A.I. can identify dangerous locations proactively before crashes happen.” In Bellevue, Wash., a recent assessment used advanced A.I algorithms and video analytics at 40 intersections
Introduction to artificial intelligence
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a branch of computer science that aims to create intelligent machines capable of performing tasks that typically require human intelligence. These tasks include learning, reasoning, problem-solving, perception, language understanding, and decision-making. The overarching goal of AI is to develop systems that can emulate or simulate human intelligence, enabling them to adapt, learn from experience, and perform tasks autonomously.
The field of AI encompasses a broad spectrum of approaches and techniques, ranging from rule-based systems and symbolic reasoning to more recent advancements in machine learning and neural networks.
Artificial Intelligence has seen rapid advancements in recent years, with applications in various industries such as healthcare, finance, transportation, and entertainment. As AI continues to evolve, it holds the potential to bring about transformative changes in how we live, work, and interact with technology.
Let’s go through the role of artificial intelligence in each of the following:
- In-Vehicle:
Artificial Intelligence (AI) in vehicles is designed to prevent accidents by providing an additional layer of safety. AI systems can detect and respond to potential hazards on the road in real time. Some of the ways AI is used to prevent accidents in vehicles are as follows:
- Automatic Emergency Braking(AEB):
AEB automatically applies the brakes in case of a sudden stop by a vehicle in front of it. It uses a combination of sensors, cameras, and AI algorithms to detect potential collisions and automatically applies the brakes if necessary. AEB systems mostly use radar and vision sensors to identify potential collision partners ahead of the ego vehicle. These systems often require multiple sensors to obtain accurate, reliable, and robust detections while minimizing false positives. To combine the data from various sensors, multiple-sensor AEB systems use sensor fusion technology.
![](https://pragyatmika.co.in/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/pic1.jpg)
AEB works in conjunction with the Forward Collision Warning (FCW) system. FCW alerts the driver by sound or a visible sign on the dashboard. Generally, FCW activates before AEB kicks in. First, the FCW warns the driver about the obstacle ahead, and if the driver fails to take appropriate action, the automatic braking system intervenes.
![](https://pragyatmika.co.in/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/pic2.png)
Glance through the points below to understand the automatic emergency braking system’s working mechanism.
- The sensors and/or cameras constantly monitor the distance between your car and the obstacle (moving car, pedestrian, etc.) ahead.
- If the distance reduces rapidly, for instance, if the vehicle in front brakes suddenly, the system immediately triggers a warning.
- The driver receives an alert message via an audio or visual medium.
- If you are too late to react, the AEB comes into action and automatically applies the brakes.
- The ECU (Electronic Control Unit) monitors your input and can detect when you are off the throttle and applies the brakes manually. So, AEB will not kick in unnecessarily.
- The Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) helps AEB stop/slow down the vehicle efficiently.
- The entry-level AEB systems work only at slow speeds. They can be helpful when you drive in the city.
- The more sophisticated automatic braking systems work across a wider speed range. Hence, they may avoid or mitigate the intensity of a high-speed collision.
- The most advanced AEB systems can also detect stationary objects, moving pedestrians, cyclists, and cars
2.Driver Monitoring:
Driver Monitoring using AIoT refers to the use of artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things (IoT) to monitor and analyze driving behavior. AIoT delivers real-time information about driving patterns, performance, and safety, making it possible to improve road safety and reduce accidents. AI algorithms are used to analyze data from sensors, cameras, and other devices installed in vehicles, enabling the system to quickly identify behaviors of interest such as speed, acceleration, deceleration, and more. This information is then transmitted over the internet, allowing for instant analysis and actionable responses. By continuously monitoring driving behavior, AIoT-based systems can help drivers stay alert and focused, reduce fatigue, and avoid dangerous driving behaviors.

2.Smart Surveillance:
AI enhances surveillance systems by providing intelligent analytics. This includes tracking objects, identifying patterns, and generating alerts for unusual activities. Smart surveillance systems equipped with AI can reduce false alarms and improve response times.
a computer vision-based accident detection and rescue system uses the pre-trained Yolo v3 model for accident identification. The Yolo model is trained in a different situation to detect accidents like rainy, foggy, low-visibility, etc.
![](https://pragyatmika.co.in/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/yu-3.png)
The accident detection and rescue system is an integrated accident detection and rescue system that uses an on-board unit (OBU) to identify and notify about vehicle accidents. All accident-related information like speed, type of vehicle involved in an accident, airbag status, etc., are gathered through various sensors and sent to the cloud. Then, machine learning approaches are used to predict the accident. A Wi-Fi web camera is pre-installed to the highway, which continuously monitors the vehicle passing through the road and sends it to the cloud. At the cloud, a video analysis is completed through the deep neural network. If the accident is detected, information is sent to the nearby control room. a convolutional neural networks (CNN)-based accident detection system. This model has two classes, named accident and non-accident. Live video of a camera is continuously transferred to the server where CNN is used to classify the video into two categories: accident and non-accident. The accuracy of the accident detection model is 95%. This system only detects accidents and does not consider the rescue operation The pre-trained Yolo v3 model was used for accident identification. The Yolo model is trained in a different situation to detect accidents like rainy, foggy, low-visibility, etc. The image augmentation techniques to increase the dataset size. The model’s input is the live video from the camera, which is configured on the road.
This module uses the capabilities of IoT and AI to detect an accident and its intensity. Various sensors are used to collect accident-related information such as location, force, etc., and identify accidents. In order to minimize the false alarm rate, deep learning techniques are used.

![](https://pragyatmika.co.in/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/ph-1024x334.png)
Initially, the accident-related information is sent through the IoT kit and send it to the server for processing. Instead of using the cloud or server for processing the collected data, this approach uses the fog computing to process the information locally. This method employs a machine learning methodology to detect accidents, which may not provide acceptable accuracy due to the complexity of the input video data.
major limitation of this approach is that the camera is located on the dashboard, which may be damaged during the accident. This approach relies only on the camera and does not use any IoT module, which may increase the false positive rate.
- Sensors:

- Proximity Sensors:
- Proximity Sensors: AI-driven proximity sensors can detect objects or obstacles in the vehicle’s vicinity, helping in parking and avoiding collisions.
A proximity sensor is a component that is designed to detect the absence or presence of an object without the need for physical contact. They are non-contact devices, highly useful for working with delicate or unstable objects that could be damaged by contact with other types of sensors.
This non-contact operation also means that most types of proximity sensors (excluding types such as magnetic proximity sensors) have a prolonged lifespan. This is because they have semiconductor outputs, meaning that no contacts are used for output.
Proximity sensors are designed to provide a high-speed response (the interval between the point when the object triggers the sensor and the point when the output activates). Different types use varying sensing technologies but they all have the same purpose.
Proximity sensors play a crucial role in various applications across different industries. Here are some reasons why proximity sensors are important:
- Non-Contact Sensing: Proximity sensors allow for non-contact sensing, which means they can detect objects without physically touching them. This feature is particularly useful in applications where contact could damage the object or where cleanliness is essential.
- Accurate Positioning: Proximity sensors provide accurate positioning information, allowing precise control of machinery and equipment. They can detect the exact position of an object, ensuring precise movements and preventing collisions.
- Reliable Object Detection: Proximity sensors offer reliable object detection, even in harsh environments. They can detect objects regardless of their material or surface properties, making them suitable for a wide range of applications.
- Fast Response Time: Proximity sensors have a fast response time, enabling quick detection and response to changes in the proximity of objects. This feature is crucial in applications where real-time monitoring and control are required.
- Versatile Applications: Proximity sensors find applications in various industries, including manufacturing, automotive, robotics, and security systems. They are used for object detection, distance measurement, position sensing, and more.
The sensor works by emitting an electromagnetic field or a beam of electromagnetic radiation and looks for changes in the field. The sensor then provides an output to a connected device.
Operating Principles
Detection Principle of Inductive Proximity Sensors:
Inductive Proximity Sensors detect magnetic loss due to eddy currents that are generated on a conductive surface by an external magnetic field. An AC magnetic field is generated on the detection coil, and changes in the impedance due to eddy currents generated on a metallic object are detected.
Other methods include Aluminum-detecting Sensors, which detect the phase component of the frequency, and All-metal Sensors, which use a working coil to detect only the changed component of the impedance. There are also Pulse-response Sensors, which generate an eddy current in pulses and detect the time change in the eddy current with the voltage induced in the coil.
(Qualitative Explanation)
The sensing object and Sensor form what appears to be a transformer-like relationship.
![](https://www.ia.omron.com/support/guide/41/img/intro_1.gif)
The transformer-like coupling condition is replaced by impedance changes due to eddy-current losses.
The impedance changes can be viewed as changes in the resistance that is inserted in series with the sensing object.
(This does not actually occur, but thinking of it this way makes it easier to understand qualitatively.)
Detection Principle of Capacitive Proximity Sensors
![](https://www.ia.omron.com/support/guide/41/img/intro_2.gif)
Capacitive Proximity Sensors detect changes in the capacitance between the sensing object and the Sensor. The amount of capacitance varies depending on the size and distance of the sensing object. An ordinary Capacitive Proximity Sensor is similar to a capacitor with two parallel plates, where the capacity of the two plates is detected. One of the plates is the object being measured (with an imaginary ground), and the other is the Sensor’s sensing surface. The changes in the capacity generated between these two poles are detected.
The objects that can be detected depend on their dielectric constant, but they include resin and water in addition to metals.
Detection Principle of Magnetic Proximity Sensors:
![](https://www.ia.omron.com/support/guide/41/img/intro_3.gif)
The reed end of the switch is operated by a magnet. When the reed switch is turned ON, the Sensor is turned ON.
2.Environment Monitoring:
Sensors equipped with AI can monitor road conditions, weather, and traffic patterns to provide real-time information and enhance driving safety. AIoT enables the collection and analysis of large amounts of data from various sensors and sources, allowing for faster and more accurate detection of accidents.
Components:
- Sensors:
-Accelerometers and Gyroscopes: These sensors can detect sudden changes in acceleration or orientation, which might indicate an accident.
-GPS Module: To track the location of the device.
-Temperature and Humidity Sensors: To monitor environmental conditions.
- AI Algorithms:
-Machine Learning Models: Train models to recognize patterns associated with accidents. You might use supervised learning with labeled datasets to train the models.
-Edge Computing: Perform some processing on the edge devices to reduce latency and send only relevant information to the cloud.
- IoT Devices:
-Microcontrollers (e.g., Arduino, Raspberry Pi): These can be used as the edge devices to collect data from sensors, process it, and send relevant information to the cloud.
-Connectivity Modules (e.g., Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GSM): Enable communication between the edge devices and the central server/cloud.
- Cloud Platform:
-Cloud Server (e.g., AWS, Azure, Google Cloud): Collect and process data from the edge devices. Host the AI models and manage the overall system.
-Database: Store historical data for analysis and reporting.
- Communication Protocols:
-MQTT, CoAP: Lightweight protocols suitable for IoT communication.
-HTTP/HTTPS: For communication with the cloud server.
-Data Collection
Considerations:
-Power Consumption: Ensure that the devices have sufficient power for continuous operation.
-Scalability: Design the system to handle an increasing number of devices.
-Security: Implement robust security measures to protect data transmission and storage.
-Regulatory Compliance: Ensure that the system complies with relevant regulations and standards.
- Techniques to Reduce Risk of Collision:
V2V (Vehicle-to-Vehicle) Communication: AI-enabled communication between vehicles can share real-time data about their positions and movements, allowing for collaborative collision avoidance.
![](https://pragyatmika.co.in/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/last.jpg)
V2V could capture and transmit these inputs, among others. By the time V2V arrives in cars, some may be stripped out for the sake of simplicity or cost-cutting.
-Vehicle speed
-Vehicle position and heading (direction of travel)
-On or off the throttle (accelerating, driving, slowing)
-Brakes on, anti-lock braking
-Lane changes
-Stability control, traction control engaged
-Windshield wipers on, defroster on, headlamps on in daytime (raining, snowing)
-Brakes on, anti-lock braking
-Gear position (a car in reverse might be backing out of a parking stall)
![](https://pragyatmika.co.in/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/ok-2.jpg)
As automotive technology continues to move towards fully autonomous vehicles, V2V is expected to follow a similar evolutionary path. Initially, the systems will provide a warning to the driver of the vehicle, but once systems are more mature, they may be able to control the vehicle by braking or steering around obstacles.
Obstacle detection is one of the primary areas for vehicle vision systems and, although great advances have been made, there are limitations. For example, a vision system would struggle to detect a hazard such as a broken-down vehicle or queue of traffic around a bend, but a V2V implementation would not be constrained by line-of-sight and could reliably detect such situations. In reality, the inputs from vision systems and V2V are likely to be merged in ‘sensor fusion’ for confirmation and to eliminate false notifications.
V2V would form a mesh network and dedicated short-range communications (DSRC) is one technology being proposed by organisations such as the FCC and ISO. This is similar to WiFi, as it operates at 5.9GHz and has a range of approximately 300 metres – which equates to around 10 seconds on a highway. However, with up to 10 ‘hops’ on the mesh the ‘visibility’ of the V2V system extends to around a mile, which gives plenty of warning on busy roads where the mesh can extend this far.
Early implementations of V2V are likely to be a ‘warning only’ system where a visual indicator or audible warning (or both) are given to the driver. These will rapidly increase in sophistication and may indicate the direction and proximity of the issue as well as its nature. With systems such as automated emergency braking (AEB) becoming more prevalent, it won’t be long before vehicles are able to bring themselves to a safe halt based upon an alert from the V2V system.
The feature of connected vehicleTechnology
What will connected car technology look like in the future? For consumers, it may be a self-driving car that gets them safely to their destination without a driver. For businesses, it may mean driverless trucks but concerns over cyber security attacks.
Concerns over the safety and privacy of connected car technologies are currently being debated and worked through on multiple levels – from private tech companies to government agencies. The ever changing needs of compliance raise questions, along with insurance and liability concerns in the case of accidents.
