Abstract:The Crash Avoidance Metrics Partnership (CAMP) was formed by Ford and General Motors in 1995 to accelerate the implementation of crash avoidance countermeasures in passenger vehicles to improve traffic safety. The CAMP Light Vehicle Enabling Research Program brings together BMW, DaimlerChrysler, Ford, General Motors, Navigation Technologies, Nissan, Toyota and Volkswagen in four cooperative research projects with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) to advance the safety research objectives of the Department's Intelligent Vehicle Initiative. This report describes the progress made in the third year of this three-year cooperative research program. Progress in the four projects is described in this report: Forward Crash Warning Requirements, Driver Workload Metrics, Enhanced Digital Maps for Safety, and Vehicle Safety Communications. The first project continued development of human factors for a Forward Collision Warning system. The second project completed test data collection. The third project completed all activities and is reported in a separate report. The fourth project continued activities in support of the use and standardization of Dedicated Short Range Communications (DSRC) for safety.
