Volvo are conducting a large field test with the aim of preventing any injury or accident in a Volvo by 2020.
Around 100 Volvo V70 and XC70 cars have been fitted with state-of-the-art technology which will monitor how people deal with different driving situations.
The technology will monitor the drivers behaviour whilst driving and analyse how this changes depending on the situation. The great thing about this test is that it allows other things to be happening at the same time so they are spending their money in the right way.
Cameras will examine how the driver’s eyes and head move during the journey whlist combining the data with other safety features of the car. The cameras are placed both at the front and back so it can really look into exactly what the driver is up to.
One of the key points that was stated that in order to move towareds a crash-free future we are going to have to look into how drivers are actually behaving.
Sweden are one of the main places that are going to be doing this with over 150 vehicles being equipped with it all. In addition, 275 vehicles in Europe will get less advanced equipment and another 1,000 responses will be secured by letting the drivers fill in a survey,” says Trent Victor, research leader for Road User Behaviour at SAFER.
“This project gives us an opportunity to prove the effectiveness of today’s range of preventive safety features and it will also help our engineers develop future safety solutions,” continues John-Fredrik Gr¶nvall.
Is it really possible that this kind of thing could lead to people not crashing when driving. This will use existing safety technology to really help with the future of driving as if this prevented an accident from happening it would be brilliant.
Of course it is obvious that a lot of people are just not interested in getting a Volvo which is why of course you could look into getting BMW Cars. The BMW 1 series has got to be the way forward on this so you should really look into getting one of these. Of course you could always go after used cars as these can also prove to be help you out a lot. You should decide on this one.
