Abstract
The numbers of cars on roads are increasing continuously. Consequently, streets and motorways are becoming more and more crowded and the risk of accidents is rising. In spite of the fact that in recent years cars have been made more efficient and capable, the driver behind the wheel is often overburdened with traffic situations. Therefore, scientists and engineers are challenged to develop a car which is safer and less stress-burdened than today. This paper outlines some future developments of such a more autonomous car within the next 15 years. The approach describes the roadmap for this “Cognitive Car” suggested by RWTH Aachen University.
