Simulation System for Assistance in Driving using Force Feedback on Direction and Acceleration Commands

摘要

In this project, the design and construction of a simulator to avoid potential driving collisions is presented. These potential driving collisions are avoided by generating a force feedback through acceleration and direction commands. With this objective, a testing cockpit has been designed taking into consideration aspects related to ergonomics and setup of elements like a real car. The simulator was created using the free version of the software "Unity", additionally, algorithms of path tracking and collision probability evaluation have been developed. These algorithms are responsible for the calculation of force feedback outputs, which allows users to acknowledge the possible collisions.
