Vehicle-to-Person Interaction: A Survey

Resumen

Our society requires the usage of roads and highways, among others means, to move a high amount of objects and living beings every day. Therefore, it is very challenging to preserve the safety when fast and powerful vehicles have to share these crowded public ways with slow and vulnerable subjects. Fortunately, the trend is that regulating authorities are introducing technological advances on new and existing structures, so that automotive vehicles and other users of public ways can coexist together, with a certain level of safety.
In this work, we make a survey of the previous situation, focused on the case of the relationship between pedestrians and automobiles, and we present the current technologies available in this field of research.
