Abstract

This paper introduces a concept for advanced driver assistance by means of a redundant architecture including all System components spanning from environment perception to vehicle controllers. Concepts like Dickmanns et.al. show that automation can be sophisticated enough to drive fully autonomously in certain environments. The concept described here uses automation to introduce a virtual driver redundant to, but not excluding, the human driver. The first part of this paper is an overview of the project framework based on a model of the driver cognition. After that the use of a multiagent technology for the generation of a virtual driver will be described into more details. A decision control and its use to optimize the driver's command depending on his fitness and the confidence of the vehicle. The final part shows some preliminary results and concludes towards future work and research issues.
