Abstract

Increased traffic safety depends on the differentiation in warning, steering actuation, braking interventions as well as the possible passive safety measures in critical situations. Continental built up a test vehicle to develop active safety measures based on radar and camera information. The system focuses on rear end collisions and uses next generation automotive CMOS camera and radar technology to avoid collisions or to reduce their impact severity. The paper describes the networking and the benefit of the additional information, generated by sensor fusion in emergency situations. Key aspects are changes in brake preparation and crash adaptation and the influence of the driver’s behaviour, compared to conventional beam sensor based safety systems.
