| Honda Columbus Ohio This led to the creation of new motorcycle design concepts aimed at making motorcycles more visible to other motorists. Honda places the highest priority on safety in the development of motor vehicles. |
| Honda San Antonio In addition to providing drivers with driver safety training Honda is proactively pursuing practical solutions in the areas of active safetyaccident avoidance; Honda Columbus Ohio. passive safety minimizing injuries in the event of an accident and precrash safetyanticipating accidents and mitigating injuries when a collision is unavoidable. |
| Honda San Francisco Honda has participated in the Ministry of Land Infrastructure and Transportpromoted Advanced Safety Vehicle (ASV) project since Phase 1 (April 1991 March 1996) and in that time has developed and commercialized a number of advanced safety systems such as Honda Intelligent Driver Support System Collision Mitigation Brake System and Intelligent Night Vision System. Honda ASV3 technologies feature further advances in active safety and precrash safetyprogress toward the realization of Hondas goal of achieving Safety for Everyone in the real worldfor motorcycles automobiles and pedestrians alike. Honda San Antonio. Honda is participating in ASV verification trials being conducted by the Ministry from July 4 to October 28 2005 and plans to take part in the public demonstrations scheduled to be held in Hokkaido October 1213 2005. |
| Honda Accord Honda ASV3: Principal Technologies Motorcycle and Automobile Communication Technology Oncoming Vehicle Information Assistance System This system exchanges vehicle information between automobiles and motorcycles such as position direction and speed. Motorcycle riders can view information about vehicles near them on a display and can receive information through an inhelmet audio system. Honda San Francisco. Drivers can view information on the status of motorcycles in their vicinity and receive warnings on their navigation system display. |
| Honda Boston Example Motorcycle Displays Intersection Stop & Go Assistance System Motorcycles This system analyzes images from the camera mounted on the front of the motorcycle to detect stop signs and either line markings or road markings. Honda Columbus Ohio. If the rider does not slow down when approaching an intersection a warning appears on the motorcycles display screen and an audio warning sounds in the riders helmet prompting the rider to decelerate. |
| Honda Bergen In addition once the motorcycle has come to a stop the InterVehicle Communication System detects the position of any approaching vehicles assisting the rider in determining whether it is safe to proceed through the intersection. Automobiles Information on intersections that are without traffic signals is gathered from car navigation system data. Honda Columbus Ohio. Images from the vehicles cameras are analyzed to detect stop lines and stop signs. |
| Honda Car Based on the vehicles speed and distance to the stop line the system determines whether the vehicle is traveling at a speed that will enable it to stop by the time it reaches the stop line. Honda Columbus Ohio. If the vehicle is exceeding the appropriate speed the system issues an audio warning while signaling the driver to slow down with a sensory warning via the application of gentle intermittent braking. |
| Honda Denver Once the automobile has come to a stop the InterVehicle Communication System detects the position of any approaching vehicles and assists the driver in determining whether it is safe to proceed through the intersection. Motorcycle Technologies Conspicuity Enhancement Designs FACE Design The human brain exhibits a strong response to facial patterns especially to the eyes and mouth. Honda Columbus Ohio. Hondas new FACE design for ASV3 takes advantage of this to make motorcycles more noticeable to other motorists by modifying the front of the motorcycle so that it resembles a human face. |
| Honda Nassau The FACE design is the result of collaborative research and development efforts by Wako Research Center the Asaka R&D Center and Honda Research Institute Japan. In fact brain function measurements taken with fMRI (Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging) confirm that the FACE design elicits a response in the brain similar to that when a human face is seen. This design significantly improves motorcycle visibility. Honda Columbus Ohio. LONG Design Since the light from a conventional motorcycles headlights comes only from the center of the vehicle it is often difficult to judge a motorcycles distance and speedoften it seems to be farther away and moving more slowly than reality. |
| St Louis Honda, Honda Kansas City To achieve nearly the same level of visibility as automobiles ASV3 motorcycles are outfitted with two sets of highintensity LED lights at two different heights. Honda Columbus Ohio. This improves motorists ability to judge a motorcycles distance by approximately 10% and improve the ability to assess its speed by approximately 20% as compared with conventional motorcycles. Honda San Francisco. FACE LONG Rear View Assistance System The status of other vehicles approaching from behind is captured by a rearmounted camera and presented on the motorcycles display. Honda Accord. The system helps make maneuvers such as changing lanes safer by providing riders with information about vehicles approaching from the rear that are not easily seen in a rear view mirror. Honda Columbus Ohio. Automobile Technology Headon Collision Avoidance Assistance System When an approaching vehicle is hidden from view for example around a blind curve the system communicates with the oncoming vehicle to ascertain important information such as its position speed and steering wheel angle. |
