Abstract: A system for detecting a run-over accident has sensors and a controller. The sensors provide collision detectors which is arranged on at least one of front and rear of a vehicle. The controller provides a collision determining module which determines an existence of a collision based on a detection result of the collision detector. The sensors provide a run-up detector which detects that a tire of the vehicle runs up something. The controller provides a run-up determining module which determines an existence of a run-up based on a detection result of the run-up detector. The controller provides a run-over determining module which determines an existence of a run-over accident when the run-up determining module determines an existence of a run-up within a predetermined first time period from the collision determining module determines an existence of a collision.

Abstract: Disclosed is a vehicle speed control apparatus including: a speed limit information recognition unit recognizing a location and a speed limit of a speed limit point located in front of a vehicle; a storage unit stored with deceleration characteristic values including at least one driving characteristic; a deceleration characteristic select unit selecting the deceleration characteristic values corresponding to the location and the speed limit of the recognized speed limit point among the deceleration characteristic values stored in the storage unit; and a targeted acceleration calculation unit calculating a targeted acceleration necessary for a vehicle speed control up to the speed limit point based on the selected deceleration characteristic values. By this configuration, it is possible to precisely control the vehicle speed up to the speed limit point at an optimal speed.

Abstract: Flight management systems and control methods for meeting a required time of arrival (RTA) with reduced fuel burn. An example method can account for probabilistic wind forecast uncertainty in RTA calculations by reformulating the speed and thrust profile problem as a multi-stage stochastic program, using a wind forecast uncertainty model to generate scenario sets for the fuel optimization problem. The method can iteratively calculate a fuel-efficient advised air speed for achieving an RTA over a flight path with an arbitrary number of recourse points.

Abstract: A mobile device operable in multiple navigation modes and includes navigation devices, a mode selection module, and a power management module. The navigation devices provide respective data associated with at least one of movement, a position, and a location of the mobile device. Each of the navigation devices is individually operable in an active mode and at least one of an inactive mode and a sleep mode. The mode selection module receives the respective data and selects one of the navigation modes based on the data received from one of the navigation devices. Each of the navigation modes corresponds to different ones of the navigation devices operating in the active mode. The power management module, based on the selected one of the navigation modes, transitions the navigation devices between the active mode and the at least one of the inactive mode and the sleep mode.

Abstract: A method, program and system to establish tire monitoring of an auxiliary vehicle (2) from a main vehicle (1) is described. The main vehicle (1) detects tire monitor identities of tire monitors (6) of the auxiliary vehicle (2) by the main vehicle. The main vehicle (1) determines whether the auxiliary vehicle tire monitor identities are associated with an identified auxiliary vehicle. If the auxiliary vehicle tire monitor identities are associated with an identified auxiliary vehicle, tire monitoring for the auxiliary vehicle (2) is established on the basis of monitoring values stored for the identified auxiliary vehicle.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for controlling a vehicle. A safe envelope driving pattern is determined to control the vehicle in an autonomous mode. User identification data and sensor data are received from one or more sensors associated with the vehicle. A driver-specific driving pattern is determined based on the received sensor data and the user identification data. Operation of the vehicle is controlled in the autonomous mode based on the identification of the user in the driver's seat, the safe envelope driving pattern, and the user-specific driving pattern.

Abstract: Disclosed are algorithms and agent-based structures for a system and technique for analyzing and managing the airspace. The technique includes managing bulk properties of large numbers of heterogeneous multidimensional aircraft trajectories in an airspace, for the purpose of maintaining or increasing system safety, and to identify possible phase transition structures to predict when an airspace will approach the limits of its capacity. The paths of the multidimensional aircraft trajectories are continuously recalculated in the presence of changing conditions (traffic, exclusionary airspace, weather, for example) while optimizing performance measures and performing trajectory conflict detection and resolution. Such trajectories are represented as extended objects endowed with pseudo-potential, maintaining objectives for time, acceleration limits, and fuel-efficient paths by bending just enough to accommodate separation.
