Pro-active head restraint is a new automotive safety device. It can make a pre-estimation of the occurrence possibility of rear-end collision. Thus, the whiplash injury can be effectively reduced or even prevented. One of the key elements in rear-end collision avoidance system is to establish an effective safety distance mathematical model. Based on the running state of front car, the related calculation models of safety distance are established by means of dynamical and kinematical analysis of vehicle braking process and following process. Taken randomness of parameters into consideration, the fuzzy relations between these parameters should be validated by means of fuzzy theory. By using the MATLAB software, the study shows that safety distance model and the methods used to determine parameters are reasonable, and the false alarm can be effectively minimized.
