Delco Electronics is developing advanced collision warning system technology to improve driver safety using systems engineering techniques. The approach is to integrate emerging low cost, millimeter-wave and microwave object detection sensors with existing vehicle electronic systems. Integration is performed while giving careful attention to the human factor aspects of driver warnings. The paper reports on two vehicles integrated with Delco Electronics FOREWARN Systems that employ front and rear sensors together with vehicle data and a collision avoidance processor to make split second intelligent assesments of collision threats. Appropriate driver warnings are made by audio, visual, and tactile means.
