Iiit Hyderabad's Iraste Project Featured In International Road Federation (irf)

hyderabad, india, November 6, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — The iRaste project of IIIT Hyderabad and its Center for Applied Artificial Intelligence Research (INAI) has been cited in the prestigious 2023 Annual Yearbook of the International Road Federation (IRF) India Chapter.

The book’s section ‘Improving Driver Behavior through Collision Avoidance Systems’ cites the ongoing work under the iRaste project (INAI and iHub-Data), which has been used to improve 340 buses in Nagpur city and Telangana city. Collision avoidance devices have been installed on 200 buses on inter-route routes. Warning sensor; data is recorded when a close accident (collision avoidance) occurs. We will also analyze all the data to identify gray spots and black spots on roads where accidents are likely to occur, and how to analyze these gray spots in collaboration with the Central Road Research Institute to reduce collision warning situations. identify. The ultimate goal is to reduce traffic accidents and fatalities.

The first pilot phase of the project, commonly referred to as Project Telangana – 20 or ts20, which has also been featured in the IRF yearbook, is a road safety project to be implemented in the city. hyderabadTelangana uses Collision Avoidance Systems (CAS) installed in fleets of vehicles. The purpose of this project was to study the impact of collision warning systems on driver behavior. Vehicles in this project traveled on the following roads: hyderabad and was observed for 6 months. This project included two phases. A control period observed drivers setting a baseline performance of their driving behavior, followed by an observation period in which changes in performance relative to baseline performance were observed. This report presents the research results and data analysis. With the presence of a CAS system, an average of 54% of drivers were observed to change their behavior and adopt safer driving behaviors, and of those who changed their behavior, the average improvement in driving behavior was approximately 34% . The analysis and results of various aspects of the study concluded that the use of collision avoidance systems leads to behavioral changes, i.e., improved safe driving among drivers. This research paved the way for the iRASTE project. The iRASTE project is his large-scale ADAS-based road safety project currently underway, involving over 350 vehicles. India.

This yearbook is a unique compilation of the country’s major road and road safety initiatives, actively collaborating with the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways and other government agencies. The International Road Federation as an organization has a very high reputation for its work in the field of road safety. Its past work has helped provide important information for shaping road policy. His IRF India Chapter Yearbook 2023 on Safe Roads and Safe Travel will influence many people to come forward and contribute to the cause of road safety. This will help reduce road fatalities.

Commenting on the validation of research by reputable institutions such as the International Road Federation (IRF), Professor CV Jawahar, Head of Research and Development, IIITH, said:The type is IndiaThe study, which used real data from 20 vehicles and drivers that covered 500,000 kilometers in six months, was featured in IRF Yearbook 2023. This research paved the way for his large-scale ADAS-based road safety project, the iRASTE project, which is currently underway. There are over 350 vehicles India. ”
