Abstract

The authors describe an experimental project designed to test the feasibility of using the latest technological devices to aid the motorist in avoiding urban traffic congestion. The basic objectives are to design, install, and operate a system that will provide real-time information to motorists in their vehicles; to evaluate the driver's response to the information provided; to evaluate the utility of using vehicles as a source of information on traffic conditions; and to evaluate a computer-assisted method of combining real-time traffic information from various sources. The experiment is taking place in the Smart Corridor, a 13-mile (20 km) stretch along the Freeway between Santa Monica and downtown Los Angeles. Twenty-five vehicles, equipped with an in-vehicle navigation system using a modified Etak map display to show traffic congestion information, will be used. After a system overview, descriptions are given of the vehicle system, the central system, and the communication system, and details of the experimental evaluation are given.<>

探路者系统设计

作者描述了一个实验项目，旨在测试使用最新技术设备帮助驾车者避免城市交通拥堵的可行性。其基本目标是设计、安装和操作一个系统，向车辆中的驾驶者提供实时信息;评估驾驶员对所提供信息的反应;评估使用车辆作为交通情况资料来源的效用;并评估一种计算机辅助的方法，将各种来源的实时交通信息结合起来。这项实验在智能走廊进行，这条走廊沿着圣莫尼卡和洛杉矶市中心之间的高速公路延伸了13英里(20公里)。将使用25辆配备车载导航系统的车辆，该系统使用改进的Etak地图显示来显示交通拥堵信息。在系统概述之后，给出了车载系统、中央系统和通信系统的描述，并给出了实验评估的细节
