fuzzy driver model

What is it about?

Determination of the handling properties of a vehicle may be restrictive in some situations. A vehicle model coupled with a driver model may be necessary and even unavoidable to analyse the real road behaviour in the most basic form. Therefore, a fuzzy logic based controller has been investigated for potential application in modelling driver. The controller was modified to account for peripheral vision characteristic of human eye, as an input. The simulation is carried out in the Matlab© programming environment using a Simulink© vehicle model. Both longitudinal and lateral controls were applied in the study.

Why is it important?

The paper adds novel approaches to the limited existing published work on driver steering model using fuzzy logic.
