The vehicles selected are Skoda Fabia 1.4
litre petrol estates. These vehicles were selected after
an appraisal of the alternatives in the small family car
sector. They have a major advantage to the project work
in that they have an electric throttle (throttle-by-wire)
whose signal can be modified by the ISA software. The
map software is based on a digital road map covering the
whole country, although speed limits will only be encoded
as road attributes for all the roads in the specific trial
area and for the national roads elsewhere. The aim has
been to provide an ISA system that is fully integrated
into the car and that is as close to the "feel"
and design of a production system as possible for reasonable
cost. |
