Advancing Vehicular Intelligence: A Comparative Study of IoV and ADAS Technologies

The Internet of Vehicles (IoV), integrated with Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), positions transportation toward the future with connectivity, safety, and efficiency in their core. IoV operates in a V2X communication constellation allowing exchange of data in real time between vehicles, infrastructure, and clouds for reduction of congestion and accidents thereby enabling immediate countermeasures. Meanwhile, this technology allows localized decision-making through intelligent sensors and algorithms thus boosting the awareness and receptiveness of the two operators. The only joint paradigm is hugely transformative, permitting an evolutionary succession of isolated safety enhancements to sort into an integrated, interactive ecosystem capable of predicting and relieving traffic hazards before they happen. However, realizing this interplay requires consideration for challenges pertaining to network latency, cybersecurity, standardization, and regulatory establishment. The paper tends to cover a critical view of the architectures, functions, and applications of IoV with ADAS, documenting the empowering facets while at the same time revealing limitations. Ultimately, they represent their connection as being the conduit toward roads that are safer, more efficient, and more sustainable globally. The fusion evokes something transformational.
