Fully Informed Vulnerable Road Users [PDF]
Proceedings of the 21st International Conference on Information Integration and Web-based Applications & Services, 2019 Vulnerable Road Users (VRUs) are all those with an increased vulnerability on the road, in particular non-motorised ones. Until now, the emphasis has been in politics more focused on drivers, vehicles and infrastructures. However, recent developments show a shift in other directions, with researchers now devoting efforts to improve VRUs' safety. Hence,
