FORD Build Intelligent Vehicles
The Oval continues to deepen intensively developing intelligent vehicles that can connect wirelessly, and is the first build prototype automobile demonstration.
"Ford believes that intelligent vehicles that can talk to each other through advanced Wi-Fi connections are the next frontier with regard to technological applications in the prevention of accidents. Not only could revolutionize the driving experience, but have the potential to help in the reduction of many collisions, "said Sue Cischke, vice president of Sustainability, Environment and Safety Engineering at Ford. These vehicles could prevent 81% of minor incidents which reduced violence generates no injuries to passengers.
This new technology, in which Ford has worked for more than a decade, allows vehicles to "talk to each other" wirelessly, using radio signals Wi-Fi or specific short-wave frequencies. Unlike the case with devices such as radar, identifying risks only within their own vision, the Wi-Fi-based radio systems to detect potential risks at 360 degrees even when the driver's view is obstructed.
Some applications allow drivers to receive alerts when a vehicle is directed to a collision with another at an intersection if a vehicle running ahead suddenly slows, or traffic patterns change, p. eg., on entering a highway with heavy traffic. The system can also warn the driver against the risk of collision when changing lanes, approach a car or other vehicle lost control.
Ford continues to research and investing their best human and technological resources to develop ever more efficient products and safe for users of vehicles.
