Design of Driving Assistance System for Racing Car Applied in Electric Baja SAE China

As an all-terrain racing car, electric Baja racing involves more complicated working conditions than ordinary roads. However, the speed control of the car mainly depends on the driver's judgment and perception, which will increase the safety hazards during the race. The existing driving assistance system seldom involves all-terrain racing. Based on the actual situation of electric Baja racing in Wuhan University of Technology, this paper designed and developed a driving assistance system. Data acquisition and processing were realized by various sensors, single chip microcomputer and chip, broadcasted in the form of voice. The accuracy of the system was proved by theory and experiment. The research can effectively give early warning judgment to the driver, improve the off-road performance and obstacle avoidance ability of electric Baja racing car, and improve the energy efficiency of the car.
