Hardware Simulation of Camera-Based Adaptive Cruise Control Using Fuzzy Logic Control

The situation of monotonous and high speed in highway will increase the risk of accidents. Drivers need to adjust the vehicle speed for safe-distance maintain. A device that can help drivers set a safe distance with the vehicle in front is known as adaptive cruise control (ACC). The ACC is a subsystem of advanced driver assistance systems (ADASs) that serves to assist the driver during cruise driving. This study presents the hardware simulation of camera-based ACC. Fuzzy logic is used to get smoother experimental car movements so that it is like a real vehicle. The results from hardware simulation show that camera-based ACC simulation and the fuzzy logic control can work according to the design. The results of ACC testing with a constant leading-vehicle speed have a success rate of 75%, while testing with a changing leading-vehicle speed has a success percentage of 60%.
