Portable GNSS/INS Data Collection with RT Backpack
RT-Backpack: Portable Pedestrian Tracking for Vehicle Safety Testing
The RT-Backpack is a purpose-built accessory designed to enhance the capabilities of the RT-Range systems, offering a powerful and convenient solution for car-to-pedestrian tracking during advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and autonomous vehicle development. This lightweight, self-contained backpack solution provides real-time, high-precision positioning data, making it an essential tool for vehicle-to-pedestrian (V2P) safety testing.
Developed to effectively support engineers and researchers in accurately evaluating pedestrian detection and avoidance systems, the RT-Backpack delivers objective and quantifiable measurements of the relative position between a vehicle and a pedestrian target. The backpack is thoughtfully equipped with a secure and stable mount for an RT device and an integrated battery, thereby offering uninterrupted operation even in demanding live testing environments.
Thanks to its advanced GNSS/INS integration, the RT-Backpack allows the user, whether acting as a pedestrian or another type of vulnerable road user, to move naturally and comfortably while simultaneously collecting highly accurate positional data. The comprehensive data captured through this innovative technology enables detailed analysis of how vehicles effectively detect and respond to real-world pedestrian behavior across a wide variety of scenarios and various environmental conditions.
One of the key benefits of the RT-Backpack is its portability and ease of use. It can be quickly set up and comfortably worn by test participants, and its rugged build ensures durability in outdoor test environments. The backpack supports real-time data transmission and seamlessly integrates with existing RT-Range systems, providing synchronized measurements between vehicles and pedestrian targets.
The RT-Backpack is an invaluable tool for automakers, researchers, and safety engineers who are dedicated to enhancing pedestrian safety technologies. By enabling precise and dynamic data collection in complex and varied testing scenarios, it plays a crucial and significant role in the development of reliable Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) features, while also helping to meet the evolving regulatory standards aimed at ensuring vehicle safety for all road users.
