  2. Collision avoidance system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collision_avoidance_system

    In its basic form, a forward collision warning system monitors a vehicle's speed, the speed of the vehicle in front of it, and the distance between the vehicles, so that it can provide a warning to the driver if the vehicles get too close, potentially helping to avoid a crash. [3]

    Forward collision warning (FCW) combined with automated emergency braking (AEB) reduced the incidence of rear-end collisions by 49 percent. ... It's not just low-speed crashes that are prevented ...

  4. Automated emergency braking system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automated_emergency...

    AEB differs from forward collision warning: FCW alerts the driver with a warning but does not by itself brake the vehicle. [4] According to Euro NCAP, AEB has three characteristics: [5] Autonomous: the system acts independently of the driver to avoid or mitigate the accident. Emergency: the system will intervene only in a critical situation.

    Forward collision warning (FCW) monitor the speed of the vehicle and the vehicle in front of it, and the open distance around the vehicle. [21] FCW systems will send an alert to the driver of a possible impending collision if gets too close to the vehicle in front of it. [21] These systems do not take control of the vehicle, as currently, FCW ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vehicle_safety_technology

    Speed warning systems are designed to alert the driver of the vehicle when they have exceeded the speed limit. To do this, GPS technologies are used to triangulate the vehicle's location; along with a record of speed limits in the area, the system uses built-in speed sensors to notify the driver when they exceed the speed limit. If the list of ...

  7. Collision avoidance in transportation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collision_avoidance_in...

    A simple collision avoidance system. In transportation, collision avoidance is the maintenance of systems and practices designed to prevent vehicles (such as aircraft, motor vehicles, ships, cranes and trains) from colliding with each other. They perceive the environment with sensors and prevent collisions using the data collected from the sensors.

    When compared to the European Euro NCAP, the NHTSA rating system lacks forward collision warning and automatic emergency braking systems, lane departure warning systems, driver monitoring systems, and other active and passive component designed to also protect pedestrians and bicyclists, according to NTSB.
