Blind Spot Detection (BSD)

 

Blind Spot Detection warning aims to detect and warn the drivers about other vehicles of any type located out of sight.

Participating actors include vehicle drivers, who receive the presence of a vehicle in a designated blind spot location information on the in-vehicle display, road operators, who may signal the presence of a vehicle in the designated blind spot location, and service providers, who disseminate the information about the presence of a vehicle in the designated blind spot location to vehicle drivers.

 

The objective of Blind Spot Detection warning is to provide timely in-car driving assistance information on the presence of a vehicle in a designated blind spot location in the driving direction of the vehicle.

Business models

Taking into account various stakeholders’ views, a list of business model blueprints that address current or future challenges of urban areas, together with their operating and value-capture scenarios depicting the inner-workings of the business models, and the exchange of costs-benefits among stakeholders, have been created for the Blind Spot Detection warning servic

Architecture
ITS-G5

In case of ITS-G5 communication technologies the Roadside System, e.g. camera, detects vehicles in a blind spot and provides this information to the Roadside Unit. This information is further sent through the Communication Provider Back Office to the Service Provider Back Office. The Service Provider Back Office will then send those detection information using the Roadside Unit to reach the On-Board Units.

Cellular

In case of cellular communication technologies the Roadside System, e.g. camera, detects vehicles in a blind spot and provides this information to the Traffic Management System. This information is further sent through the Communication Provider Back Office to the Service Provider Back Office. The Service Provider Back Office will receive location data for Personal Information Devices. The Service Provider Back Office will then send those detection information using the Communication Provider Back Office.

Within the C-MobILE project the Blind Spot Detection service is implemented in four Deployment Sites: Bilbao, Bordeaux, and North Brabant.

Invisible
In Bordeaux the Green Priority service is implemented on a defined area containing five successive intersections approaching an hospital. The service provider is NeoGLS. In collaboration with Gertrude, when an RSU detects the presence of an equipped emergency vehicle, it forwards a priority request to the Traffic Light Controller, which will pass the lights to green at this traffic light, but also on the traffic lights ahead, to clear the way for the emergency vehicle until he reaches the hospital.
Bilbao
In Bilbao the Blind Spot Detection service is implemented using cellular communication technology. The service warns vulnerable road users (and specifically cyclists) about the risk of collision with other vehicles when they are approaching a blind spot in the city road network. CEIT is the service and App provider ensuring timely alerts to VRUs.

Note: This service is currently deployed as a proof of concept.

Bordeaux
In Bordeaux the Blind Spot Detection service is implemented using both cellular and ITS-G5 communication technologies. This service uses vehicle to vehicle communication to trigger alerts when a vulnerable road user (i.e. motorcyclist or cyclist) is detected and potentially out of sight for the vehicle driver. The service provider of BSD is NeoGLS and the service is available through the App “CTD – Connected Mobility”.

In North Brabant the Blind Spot Detection service is implemented (as a proof of concept) using cellular communication technology. The service warns vulnerable road users (and specifically cyclists) about the risk of collision with other vehicles when they are approaching a blind spot in the city road network. This service is ensured thanks to the camera detection system developed and deployed by Macq.
