Driver Awareness System Using RFID Technology: A collaboration in Senior Design Projects

Abstract

Road traffic safety refers to the methods and measures used to prevent road users from being killed or seriously injured. Typical road users include: pedestrians and vehicle passengers. A collaboration work with a Telecommunication industrial partner in senior design graduation projects considers enhancing road safety. In this work, Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology is used in order to develop driver awareness systems against pedestrian crossing, foggy weather collisions, construction road site, and bridge crash. This paper will focus on the awareness system developed against pedestrian crossing.
