Autonomous cruise control (ACC; also called adaptive cruise control, radar cruise control, traffic-aware cruise control or dynamic radar cruise control)[citation needed] is an optional cruise control system for road vehicles that automatically adjusts the vehicle speed to maintain a safe distance from vehicles ahead.

Control is based on sensor information from on-board sensors. (No existing system makes use of satellite or roadside infrastructures nor of cooperative support from other vehicles.) Cooperative Adaptive Cruise Control (CACC) further extends the automation of navigation by using information gathered from fixed infrastructure such as satellites and roadside beacons, or mobile infrastructure such as reflectors or transmitters on the back of other vehicles.[citation needed]

Such systems may use a radar or laser sensor or a stereo camera setup allowing the vehicle to brake when it detects the car is approaching another vehicle ahead, then accelerate when traffic allows it to.

ACC technology is widely regarded as a key component of any future generations of intelligent cars. They impact driver safety and convenience as well as increasing capacity of roads by maintaining optimal separation between vehicles and reducing driver errors. Vehicles with autonomous cruise control are considered a Level 1 autonomous car, as defined by SAE International.[1]

Adaptive cruise Control does not provide full autonomy: the system only provides some help to the driver, but does not drive the car by itself.[2]

Europe is the main market for Adaptative Cruise control, in 2016.[3]

Laser-based systems do not detect and track vehicles in adverse weather conditions nor do they reliably track dirty (and therefore non-reflective) vehicles. Laser-based sensors must be exposed, the sensor (a fairly large black box) is typically found in the lower grille, offset to one side.

Radar-based sensors can be hidden behind plastic fascias; however, the fascias may look different from a vehicle without the feature. For example, Mercedes-Benz packages the radar behind the upper grille in the center and behind a solid plastic panel that has painted slats to simulate the look of the rest of the grille.

Single radar systems are the most common. Systems involving multiple sensors use either two similar hardware sensors like the 2010 Audi A8[4] or the 2010 Volkswagen Touareg,[5] or one central long range radar coupled with two short radar sensors placed on the corners of the vehicle like the BMW 5 and 6 series.[6]

A more recent development is the binocular computer vision system, such as that introduced to the US market in model year 2013 by Subaru. These systems have front-facing video cameras mounted on either side of the rear view mirror and use digital processing to extract depth information from the parallax between the two cameras' views.

Assisting systems

Radar-based ACC often feature a precrash system, which warns the driver and/or provides brake support if there is a high risk of a collision. Also in certain cars it is incorporated with a lane maintaining system which provides a power steering assist to reduce steering input burden on corners when the cruise control system is activated.

Multi-sensor systems

Systems with multiple sensors can practice sensor fusion to integrate the data from to improve safety and/or driving experience. GPS data can inform the system of geographic features such as a freeway offramp. A camera system could notice driver behavior such as brake lights and/or a turn signal. This could allow a following car to interpret a turn signal by an exit as not requiring the following car to slow down, as the leading car will exit.[7] Multi-sensor systems could also take note of traffic signs/signals and not, e.g., violate a red light while following a vehicle that crossed before the signal changed.

Predictive systems

Predict systems modify speed based on predictions of other vehicles' behavior. Such systems can make earlier, more moderate adjustments to the predicted behavior, improving safety and passenger comfort. One example is to predict the likelihood of a vehicle in a neighbouring lane moving in front of the controlled vehicle. One system predicts a lane change up to five seconds before it occurs.[8]

Timeline

ACC radar antenna
  • 1992: Mitsubishi was the first to offer a lidar-based distance detection system on the Japanese market with its Debonair. Marketed as "Distance Warning", this early system warns the driver, without influencing throttle, brakes or gearshifting.[9][10]
  • 1995: Mitsubishi Diamante introduced laser "Preview Distance Control". This early system controlled speed through throttle control and downshifting, not by applying the brakes.[9][11]
  • 1997: Toyota offered a "laser adaptive cruise control" (lidar) system on the Japanese market Celsior.[12] It controlled speed through throttle control and downshifting, not by applying the brakes.
  • 1999: Mercedes introduced "Distronic", the first radar-assisted ACC[citation needed], on the Mercedes-Benz S-Class (W220)[13][14] and the CL-Class.[15]

  • 2006: Audi introduced Full speed range ACC plus on the Audi Q7. It had low-speed mode, warns the driver of a potential collision, and prepare emergency braking as needed.[27] The system supplied by Bosch was available in the 2008 Audi A8, the Audi Q5, 2009 Audi A6 and the new 2010 Audi A8. The Audi A4 was available with an older version of the ACC that did not stop the car completely.
  • 2006: Nissan introduced "Intelligent Cruise Control with Distance Control Assist" on Nissan Fuga.[28] It pushes the gas pedal against the foot when the navigation system observes an unsafe speed.

Vehicle models supporting adaptive cruise control

The three main categories of ACC are:

  • Vehicles with Full Speed Range 0MPH are able to bring the car to a full stop to 0 mph and need to be re-activated to continue moving with something like a tap of the gas pedal.
  • Vehicles with Traffic Jam Assist / Stop & Go auto resume from standstill to creep with stop and go traffic.
  • Vehicles with Partial cruise control cuts off & turns off below a set minimum speed, requiring driver intervention.
  • Vehicles with fully automated speed control can respond to traffic signals and non-vehicular on-road activity.
