Validation of Shared Control Strategies for Critical Maneuvers in Automated Driving Systems

This research presents the validation of shared control strategies for critical maneuvers, including overtaking in low visibility and lateral evasive actions, in automated driving systems. The proposed approach focuses on the lateral control of the vehicle and involves a modular architecture with an arbitration module and shared control algorithms. The validation is conducted using a dynamic simulator with real drivers, demonstrating improved safety and user acceptance compared to no shared-control support.
