“The cure for the common convoy.”

Jon Howard, Stephen Kerschner, Austen Haines, Collin Goodruff

Page 2: The H 4

Develop a method to detect and avoid obstacles while maintaining formation.

Define technique to be utilized

Display warning and suggested collision avoidance method to driver.

Detect on-coming traffic and factor into decision process.

Based on Simplicity

Utilizes Multi-use

Technology

Comparatively Inexpensive

Allows for Easy Black-Out

Maneuverability

50km/hr = 13.89m/s

Time to react: 50m/13.98meters per second = 3.6 seconds to react

Turning Time = 2.5 seconds

This leaves 1.1 seconds to relay orders

Stopping time is 8.86 seconds at 50km/hr
