Abstract

Precise docking at bus stops is a key technical requirement for achieving the practical implementation of the next-generation Advanced Rapid Transit (ART) transportation system. Among the control methods for precise docking that are being studied in this research and development project, the road surface guidance lines described in this article are regarded as an effective means of reducing control error. However, some concerns remain, such as their use on roads not used by buses, on which they may cause needless driver confusion. This study investigated guidance lines for precise docking that are readable by cameras mounted on ART vehicles, and conducted several verification experiments to confirm their safety. The effect of this precise docking system on the driving behavior of ordinary vehicles and the recognition rate of these guidance lines were investigated in experiments held at a test course.
