Abstract

A laser sensor is being developed which is capable of determining distance and azimuth at a bandwidth that is sufficiently high for automotive applications. Here, it is assumed that this sensor is attached to an automobile, and provides continuous information about nearby objects. This information is processed through a "decision algorithm". If a collision is imminent, the algorithm sets a desired lateral acceleration while simultaneously braking as hard as possible. This paper describes the controller for this event assuming that the steering and/or the brakes can be automatically controlled. For the covering abstract see ITRD E116488.
