Empowering Vulnerable Road Users in C-ITS
2018 IEEE Globecom Workshops (GC Wkshps), 2018Almost 50% of people dying on the roads are vulnerable users. Pedestrians and cyclists are among the main road traffic crash victims. Despite the recent advances in traffic safety during the last decades, the number of fatalities is still high and its reduction is considered a priority by the United Nations.

Advanced Protection for Vulnerable Road Users
SAE Technical Paper Series, 2005<div class="htmlview paragraph">There is increasing international interest in collision avoidance and more recently in safety systems for ‘Vulnerable Road Users’ (VRUs). The aim of the ‘Advanced Protection for Vulnerable Road Users’ (APVRU) project was to develop a sensor system capable of detecting VRUs, distinguishing them from the road ...

Vulnerable Road Users Detection Using V2X Communications
2015 IEEE 18th International Conference on Intelligent Transportation Systems, 2015Vehicle to vehicle (V2V) communications allow to sharing real-time information among the vehicles that circulate on the nearby road areas. These communications systems are today in an early stage of development and the effort are focused into two directions, on one hand, the development of the communications infrastructure to support the information ...

Pose Based Trajectory Forecast of Vulnerable Road Users
2019 IEEE Symposium Series on Computational Intelligence (SSCI), 2019In this article, we investigate the use of 3D human poses for trajectory forecasting of vulnerable road users (VRUs), such as pedestrians and cyclists, in road traffic. The forecast is based on past movements of the respective VRU and an important aspect in driver assistance systems and autonomous driving, which both could increase VRU safety.

[Knee injuries of vulnerable road users in road traffic].
Der Unfallchirurg, 2007The purpose of this study was to assess the risk of knee injuries among vulnerable road users, such as pedestrians, bicyclists and motorcyclists.Two different periods (years 1985-1993 and 1995-2003) were compared. Inclusion criteria were furthermore Abbreviated Injury Scale knee 2-3 (AIS(knee)).

THE CONTRIBUTION OF ITS TO ROAD SAFETY OF VULNERABLE ROAD USERS
2016Vulnerable Road Users (VRUs) are the weakest link in the transport system in terms of road safety. Strictly speaking, ''vulnerable'' users are users are cyclists and pedestrians (including children, the elderly, and the disabled). In broader terms, motorcycle drivers are also considered vulnerable.
