Abstract
A method and apparatus of predicting a crash are provided. The method includes detecting coordinates of a target obstacle based on first coordinate information of a radar sensor and second coordinate information of an ultrasonic sensor, translating the second coordinate information to the coordinate system of the first coordinate information and generating translated coordinate information, estimating a position, speed, and acceleration of a vehicle if the vehicle is a predetermined distance from the target obstacle based on the translated coordinate information, determining a potential crash type between the vehicle and the target obstacle based on the estimated position, speed and acceleration of the vehicle, determining a three-dimensional movement trajectory based on the estimated position, speed and acceleration of the vehicle and the determined crash type, and predicting a crash point of the vehicle, a crash point of the target object and a crash time based on the three-dimensional movement trajectory.
