Abstract

Safet is the most important issue while driving. Man traffic accidents occur because of insufficient safe distance. With the advancement of technolog, there are cars with a front distance safet warning sstem. Some of them are with fied safe distance regardless of the speed of the car. Other advanced distance detection sstems switch between different modes such as high speed and low speed. In this paper, we proposed a driving safet sstem which can dnamicall adjust the safe distance between vehicles depending on the speed and weather conditions. This sstem can be used to determine and maintain safe distances both in front and rear of a car. This idea has obtained an invention patent of Taiwan. A car with this sstem can be driven more safel.
