Common-sense approach to avoiding near-miss incidents of pedestrians suddenly crossing narrow roads

摘要

This study focused on pedestrians suddenly crossing narrow roads. In order to avoid a near-miss incident while walking, we have used a common-sense reasoning approach to eliminate the risk of pedestrian behavior. We believe that common-sense knowledge is an important approach to safely driving on narrow roads in Japan. There are three types of near-miss incidents based upon past observations. We have demonstrated a new type of support system on an iPhone as a guide to safe driving.
