This program's primary objective is the development of practical performance guidelines or specifications for rear-end collision avoidance systems. This work focuses on light vehicles only and emphasizes autonomous in-vehicle-based equipment (as opposed to cooperative infrastructure-based equipment.) The Task 3 report 'Test Results' presents the results of the tests carried out on existing collision-avoidance systems. These systems were tested to determine limits, boundaries, and capabilities of the systems, to help in formulating performance requirements relative to IVHS safety needs, and to eliminate technologies that are not appropriate as potential rear-end collision countermeasures. Covered in the report is the plan for testing, contacts made with suppliers, and overview of the instrumentation, results, and summary. The existing systems selected for testing were to be complete systems consisting of all components and subsystems needed for sensing, data processing and interfacing with the driver and/or vehicle.
