Acoustic Perception in Intelligent Vehicles using a single microphone system

Passive acoustic sensing utilizes the ability of sound to travel beyond the line-of-sight to understand the surroundings. This provides an advantage over the currently used sensors in Intelligent Vehicles that can sense obstacles within their line-of-sight only. Recently, a localization based approach has been implemented to take advantage of...

Acoustic recognition of motorized vehicles with a moving listener

New measures have to be taken to combat fatalities caused by traffic accidents. Intelligent vehicles have the potential to increase safety, but depend heavily on their automated perception ability.<br/>Acoustic perception, an unused sensing modality in this field, has potential for the detection of nearby vehicles, an ability both human drivers...
