Abstract:
Advanced safety system that introduced in this project paper is Vehicle Collision
Avoidance System (VCAS). This system help driver sense the danger, issues early
warning, controlling vehicle when avoiding collision and reduce the vehicle crash
impact. Parameters that involved in VCAS are vehicle speed and front car object
relative distance. Both parameters then used by three modules in VCAS that is
Vehicle Speed Converter, Calculate Time to Impact and System Control. Modelsim
XE II 5.7 g software used in design and simulates VCAS due to capability of software
supporting design that used VHDL programming language. Results from all three
modules that finished simulate are then compared to actual results acquired from
formula calculation method. Those compared result modules are according to desired
initial design although several adjustments need to be made. Successful of this system
can motivate more advanced safety system to be developing at Malaysia.
