The work is part of a multiyear program to foster the development, evaluation, and deployment of forward crash avoidance systems. The work performed during the first two years of this program addressed adaptive cruise control and warnings based upon the motion and proximity of preceding vehicles in the path of travel. The technology-related work for the third year was focused upon the addition of braking to an UMTRI prototype of an ACC system. The objective of the work is to provide test results and system-development experience showing the engineering and human factors issues posed by braking as a supplement to ACC or within a medium-deceleration crash avoidance function.
