"Modern Car Technologies (ModTech)" is a system engineering company active in developing advanced systems for car manufacturing companies. You, as a "System Engineer" in ModTech, have been asked to design a "Vehicle Collision Avoidance System (VCAS)". This system is a technology used to help drivers to avoid a crash. It can also help to reduce the intensity of an accident. By using various kinds of sensors including radar, laser (LIDAR), and cameras, a VCAS system can detect moving dangers in front and side, fixed dangers, and pedestrians to avoid a crash. VCAS includes several sub-systems including forward avoidance collision system, early approaches collision avoidance system, alarm system, autonomous emergency braking system, automated lane keeping system, etc. Figure 1 shows an example of a VCAS which has been proposed based on Internet of Things (IoT).

Provide a technical report that contains the following:

1- A review of different VCAS systems currently in use or proposed in the literature. The review needs to be supported by good references including publications (journal and conference papers, books), data sheets, etc. The review should include the VCAS systems, sub-systems, advantages and disadvantages, technologies, and elements.

2- A design of a VCAS system that incorporates at least two main sub-systems. The system design should include the system controller, sensors, and any other elements required for the system operation. The design should be compatible with the data communication system used in automobiles and automotive standards.

3- A proof of concept of one of the subsystems discussed in (2).

4- Validation of the operation of the subsystem developed in (3) and comment on the results.

5- Proposal for the next phases of development to include:

A- The use of an advanced controller instead of the current one (Support your proposal with references).

B- The use of other methods of data transmissions such as wireless and Internet of Things (Support your proposal with references).
