On vehicle data acquisition system

The goal of this paper is to present a vehicle data acquisition system. This system is a part of the Car Transport Safety project that is aimed at modern methods in the vehicle transportation systems. The goal of the project is to reduce hazardous situations on the roads by analyzing behavior of the driver and identifying the degradation of driver's abilities. The goal of the vehicle data acquisition system is to create a publicly available data archive taken from the operation of a real car under various real conditions of the driver and the road. The data is collected from a vehicle's communication bus and from an image acquisition system. Data is processed with the aim to analyze it and reveal changes in a driver's abilities and to eventually alarm the driver or passenger(s).
