Honda is developing a very unique piece of technology that can minimize congestion. Japanese car giants
have not experienced higher sales as some competitors recently, but that did not stop them from beginning the project to break ground.
Usually, motorists are now able to predict high levels of traffic through their satellite navigation system, and follow alternate routes. Honda's method allows drivers to avoid traffic is somewhat different. Essentially Honda traffic the system can detect whether the person driving will cause traffic. There will be a warning signal to the driver, it is recommended to go to the other in order to prevent traffic jams, keeping the vehicles moving around them.
Sitting in traffic is a frustrating activity for any motorists. It is even more difficult when there seems to be no fundamental reason for this, such as road works. This happens more often than not for most drivers. By the time wasted and the fuel. Natural environment further damaged with start-stop culture in cars as nothing more emissions. Accidents are also increased, with the rear collisions occur frequently.
But will Honda traffic system really make a difference? What justifies them to do this particular type of system? Exeter University conducted a study back in 2007, as to why the motion is. Their results showed that the congestion was not just because of the mass of the traffic congestion. Studies have shown that they were due to naturally slow down a driver for drivers to slow down. This means that is the type of chain reaction, meaning drivers drive more slowly, eventually leading to a complete standstill. Honda system complements these studies. This helps the driver to speed up, if necessary to ensure that they are never the driving pace, which is slower than required.
Honda's system is the world first. No other system currently detects driving patterns to avoid traffic jams. As the driver accelerates and brakes are closely watched. Using a special type of intelligence, if the pattern is considered to be potentially create traffic, warning signals will be sent to the driver by driving a color display.
Honda's system will connect the system to the cloud servers, which works in conjunction with the adaptive cruise control (ACC) Honda. Adaptive cruise control is automatically synchronized with the speed of the other car further down the road. This helps to keep a safe distance between vehicles at all times.
Testing has already begun for Honda in the motion of the system. It was completed in partnership, Research Center for Advanced Science and Technology Department with the University of Tokyo. Without the adaptive cruise control system in Honda have been positive. The average speed of vehicles was increased by 7 percent. Fuel efficiency has been improved by 3%. However, addition of Honda in the cloud technology and adaptive cruise control speed of vehicles increased by 23 per cent and 8 per cent increase in fuel efficiency.
Road tests of any real environment has not been. Honda plans a real life road test at some point during the year. It is believed that the trials will be held in Italy in May, and Indonesia.
Will it make a difference? It will need to be set within a large number of vehicles in order to make a real impact on our roads. Honda technology has great potential and a great concept. In an ideal world, we will see these technologies in our cars in the near future.
