Standard ACC is a well known driver assistance system that eases driving by longitudinal control of a vehicle. ACC Stop and Go is capable to handle a largely increased set of driving situations on highways, rural roads and partly in urban environment. However, driving scenarios exist that are not fully supported by ACC Stop and Go as the system is limited in e.g. road type classification and curvature prediction. Forward looking sensors offer a detailed representation of the environment. However, they are limited in sensing range. The laserscanner has a detection range of approx. 200 m, a wide horizontal field of view and a high angular resolution. The paper outlines the sensing range and the field of view of a single Ibeo laserscanner. Digital maps deliver off-line data with quasi unlimited range. This information is more abstract and less detailed than the laserscanner data. Thus, digital maps providing additional information complement the description of the surrounding. Ibeo extends its ACC Stop and Go in cooperation with NAVTEQ with map support to optimize the system performance.
