June 2024, Pengfei Lin, a D3 student from our laboratory, had the opportunity to present his research at the 35th IEEE Intelligent Vehicles Symposium (IV 2023), held in Anchorage, Alaska, USA. The conference, renowned for gathering experts from academia, industry, and government agencies, focuses on the latest advancements in Intelligent Vehicles and Infrastructure, providing a significant platform for sharing new ideas and technological breakthroughs.
Pengfei presented his paper titled “Time-to-Collision-Aware Lane-Change Strategy Based on Potential Field and Cubic Polynomial for Autonomous Vehicles.” His research, aiming to enhance the safety of autonomous vehicle lane-changing maneuvers, has shown promising results, reducing the length and curvature of lane change trajectories significantly, ensuring smoother and safer transitions on expressways. The innovative approach combines the potential field method with a cubic polynomial, optimizing the lane-changing process under high-speed conditions.
The attached photos show Pengfei enthusiastically discussing his work with other conference attendees during the poster session. His participation not only showcased our lab’s cutting-edge research but also enabled him to exchange ideas with leading figures in the field, contributing to his academic and professional growth.
