Abstract
A vehicle safety system performs close-in incipient collision detection that combines high sample rate near-field sensors with advanced real-time processing to accurately determine imminent threats and the likelihood of a collision before a collision occurs. This allows applicable countermeasures to be deployed based upon the probability of a collision, while also taking into account the type of threat and the impending impact's location on the vehicle. This radically new approach will soon transform the passive safety market to greatly reduce injuries from automotive crashes and save lives.
