Vehicular communication systems are computer networks in which vehicles and roadside units are the communicating nodes, providing each other with information, such as safety warnings and traffic information. They can be effective in avoiding accidents and traffic congestion. Both types of nodes are dedicated short-range communications (DSRC ...
Intelligent transportation system. An intelligent transportation system ( ITS) is an advanced application that aims to provide innovative services relating to different modes of transport and traffic management and enable users to be better informed and make safer, more coordinated, and 'smarter' use of transport networks.

Some head units have built-in stereo amplifiers. Other car audio systems use a separate stand-alone amplifier. Every amplifier has a rated power level sometimes noted on the head unit with the built-in amplifier, or on the label of a stand-alone unit. Coaxial speakers: These are the most common type of car speakers and are often factory-installed.
Ford calls its hands-free driving system BlueCruise and offers it on a handful of its vehicles. BlueCruise allows for hands-free driving on most U.S. highways that don’t have traffic signals or ...
A self-driving car, also known as an autonomous car (AC), driverless car, robotaxi, robotic car or robo-car, [1] [2] [3] is a car that is capable of operating with reduced or no human input. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] Self-driving cars are responsible for all driving activities, such as perceiving the environment, monitoring important systems, and controlling ...
Advanced driver-assistance systems ( ADAS) are technologies that assist drivers with the safe operation of a vehicle. Through a human-machine interface, ADAS increase car and road safety. ADAS use automated technology, such as sensors and cameras, to detect nearby obstacles or driver errors, and respond accordingly.
The ESA Seeker autonomous rover during tests at Paranal [ 1] Vehicular automation involves the use of mechatronics, artificial intelligence, and multi-agent systems to assist the operator of a vehicle such as a car, lorry, aircraft, or watercraft. [ 2][ 3] A vehicle using automation for tasks such as navigation to ease but not replace human ...
Digital tachograph. A digital tachograph in operation, with a driver card inserted. A digital tachograph is a device fitted to a vehicle that digitally records its speed and distance, together with the driver's activity selected from a choice of modes. In Europe, it succeeded the analogue tachograph as a result of European Union regulation 1360 ...
