Vehicle collision judging system for controlling brake actuation

摘要

A collision judging system for a vehicle comprises a subject vehicle position estimating means for estimating the position of the subject vehicle after a lapse of a preset time from a certain braking start time, on the assumption that the braking is starting at such braking start time, an obstacle position estimating means for estimating the position of an objective obstacle after the lapse of the preset time, and the judging means for judging whether or not the position of the subject vehicle estimated by the subject vehicle position estimating means and the position of the obstacle estimated by the obstacle position estimating means coincide with each other. Thus, the judgment of collision can be performed with the avoidance of the collision by the driver's operation being taken into consideration, leading to an improved feeling of driving operation.
