Modelling the Process of Controlling an Automated Steering Maneuver

Abstract

Automated steering maneuvers have the potential to further reduce collisions in automobile traffic. High torques on the steering wheel and steer-by-wire are two concepts to prevent unwanted interference by the human driver during such maneuvers. Yet both methods lack controllability required by regulations in case of a false alarm, which is required by regulations. This paper tackles the problem of controllability by structuring the process of overriding a maneuver. Six chronological elements are presented which open up new specific research areas each. Research so far is sorted into this process and possible future research is evaluated for each element.
