Demo Station Name: Vision-Based Lane Departure Warning System based on Blackfin
Demo Description: Increased safety awareness of Drivers and new rating methods introduced by NCAP (New Car Assessment Program) will accelerate the adoption of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) in future vehicles. ADAS Systems will make driving safer and more convenient. One basic function for most Vision based active safety features is a Lane Detection System. This feature is known as Lane Departure Warning (LDW) or Lane Keeping Assist (LKA) which warns the driver of any unintended departure of a vehicle from its current lane, thus helping to avoid road accidents. This demo showcases a robust vision-based LDW system implementation running on a Blackfin-561 platform with utilization below 20% performance of this device. A camera captures the road scene ahead of the vehicle and BF-561 processes the images to detect lane markings on the road and warns of any departure from the current lane. The distribution of analog video signals to and off the processing board is enabled via ADI’s automotive qualified Video Decoder ADV718x und Encoder ADV7179.
AUTOMOTIVE # 12
Demo Station Name: Airbag System
Demo Description: Accelerometers from Analog Devices, pressure sensors and a chip set from Infineon are used in this setup to demonstrate how a typical Airbag System works. The visitor can simulate a “crash” by hitting a cylinder which will cause an airbag to deploy. The demo also underlines the complementary product portfolio of Infineon and Analog Devices for Airbag Systems and why it makes them ideal partners for cooperation in this area.
Demo Station Name: AnyBot QB Telepresence Robot (courtesy of AnyBots, Inc. Mountain View, CA US)
Demo Description: Join a meeting, pop into a coworker’s cubicle, greet visitors, check inventory at the warehouse, or take a factory tour without leaving your office or home. QB is a remote-controlled telepresence robot that has a speaker, microphone, camera, and video screen. Users have total access and presence using a laptop with internet access and a headset. Navigation is aided by inertial, laser and visual sensors. ADI iSensor technology is key technology used for self-balance and image stabilization. The user sees real-time video from the robot’s head and the guidance system takes care of avoiding furniture and people. Featured ADI product inside this design: iSensor ADIS16364 Inertial Measurement Unit.
Nine Degrees of Freedom Motion Sensor
The ADIS16405 iSensor® Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) provides a simple, cost-effective method for integrating accurate, multi-axis inertial sensing into industrial systems including unmanned vehicles, platform control, digital compassing and navigation. The ADIS16405 includes a triaxial gyroscope, a triaxial accelerometer, and a triaxial magnetometer and combines industry-leading iMEMS® technology with signal conditioning that optimizes dynamic performance. Factory calibration characterizes the sensor for sensitivity, bias, alignment, and linear acceleration. As a result, the ADIS16405 has its own dynamic compensation for correction formulas that provide accurate sensor measurements over a temperature range of −40°C to +85°C. The magnetometer employs a self-correction function to provide accurate bias performance over temperature, as well.
In Farnell's Electronica booth, an interactive demo will enable visitors to capture dynamic motion and view it on a screen using a small affordable fully integrated unit. They can begin to conceptualize how their end product can be differentiated from competition using precise stabilization and control of machinery, or navigation/tracking for vehicles, personnel, robotics, and industrial machines.
