Development of adaptive cruise control systems, "Preview Distance Control".
Position paperMr. Masayoshi Ito
Mitsubishi Motors Corporation
 
Mr Ito will discuss ACC systems with emphasis on the purpose of ACC systems, the relationship with the driving situation and the actual operation of the system. He will discuss the effects of ACC in terms of reduction of the driver’s operation (gas and brake pedal) and go into alternative products to account for the collision avoidance function (distance warning system, advanced safety vehicle including surround hazards monitoring).
 
Curriculum Vitae
 
Mr. Mayashi Ito joined Mitsubishi Motors Corporation in 1987 where he has been mostly involved in electronically controlled chassis component development such as traction control systems, electronically controlled four-wheel drive systems, independent brake force control and drive torque distribution control systems.
Since November 1996, Mr. Mayashi Ito is engaged in research in AHS at AHSRA. Before, he was engaged in operational test of AHS at the Joshin-etsu Express way and the test truck of the PWRI. AHSRA is the Advanced Cruise Assist Highway System Research Association, a prominent Japanese consortium investigating Automated Highway Systems (AHS) as well as smaller-scale driver assistance systems.
Mr. Ito has a Bachelor degree in Electronics of the Gifu University.
