Objetivo
To demonstrate the feasibility of a miniaturized and integrated obstacle detection system based on laser technology, to be used for automotive applications, particularly Intelligent Cruise Control and Anticollision.
To develop and make available the technology of small,eye-safe, solid-state microchip lasers with fast risetime and high peak power.
To develop solutions for efficient laser beam scanning, which can withstand vibrations and guarantee long lifetime, integrating microoptics and micromechanics.
To support the industrial evaluation of technologies for driver support functions, by a comparative assessment of the developed solution, and a review of application trends.
A functional prototype of a compact laser-based system for obstacle detection on-vehicles is to be developed. New microsystem technologies are to be used to address the requirements of reliability, detection performance in adverse visibility, eye safety, and cost effectiveness.
The key technologies are an eye-safe microchip laser at 1,5 um wavelength, and a beam-scanning system based on micromachined lenses and flexure structures for actuation. Original signal processing circuits will be developed, where time-of-flight and correlation techniques are integrated, aiming to improve the operation in bad atmospheric conditions. A technical evaluation, including real-field tests, and an overall assessment of the solution will be performed.
The system for obstacle detection will be the core component for driver support functions, with an high impact on safety, traffic efficiency and driving comfort. New application areas are also anticipated such as instrumentation, industrial automation and security systems.
