This work is part of a three year program to foster the development, evaluation, and deployment of forward crash avoidance systems. The efforts during this first year have focused on operational testing of a passenger car equipped with a baseline autonomous intelligent cruise control system, also known as 'adaptive cruise control' (ACC). To aid in evaluating and comparing ACC with other types of speed and headway control, on-road measurements have been made while driving using conventional cruise control, manual control (normal driving), as well as with the ACC system. The objective and subjective results obtained this year are from a population of 36 driver-participants that was balanced for gender, age, and experience with cruise control. The report presents technical results and information that support preliminary conclusions and recommendations concerning: simple design methods for speed and headway control; evaluation of system performance as a function of range, range rate and velocity; methods for evaluation of operational field experience; future studies aimed at obtaining improved results for ACC systems.
