Objective Tests for Crash Imminent Automatic Braking

Preliminary testing will be conducted on existing automatic braking performance to assess the current state-of-the-art and to develop test procedures. Technology selection will be finalized and prototypes will be developed. Testing will begin on advanced automatic braking systems to address the crash problem previously identified. A road trip will be initiated to assess advanced radar/LiDAR/camera performance in real-world driving conditions.
