Survey about Feasibility of Requirements for Next-Generation Urban Transportation System

抄録

To make it easier for bus users, including wheelchair users, to get on and off the bus, a survey was conducted to help develop an automated control technology that stops the bus so that the gap between the bus entrance and the bus stop is minimized. Section 1 reports the results of an investigation about the permissible gap and step between the bus entrance and the bus stop. Sections 2 and 3 describe the performance of recognition technology used for controlling the accurate arrival of the bus at a bus stop. Section 4 describes the performance of the arrival control using the recognition technology described in Section 3.
