Abstract

The concept of a sensor-based support system for drivers of road vehicles is outlined and subsequently refined step by step. The refinement steps emphasize the necessity to treat this problem on a conceptual rather than on a signal processing level. Moreover, this approach emphasizes the systems aspect. As a consequence, the challenge to AI is seen at the systems level. Various recent developments are pointed out which support the hypothesis that a combination of recent progress in formal logic, natural language processing, knowledge representation, and image sequence understanding can contribute substantially to experimental as well as theortical work in the design of driver support systems.
