Abstract

An intelligent emergency braking system for a vehicle includes a camera, an ultrasonic transceiver of a parking aid system, and a computer. The camera is configured to provide captured image data, and the transceivers are configured to provide transceiver data. The computer processes the image and transceiver data and invokes automatic braking if the following conditions exist: the confidence with which the computer calculates that a detected object is a person or is an object vehicle exceeds a first predetermined level, and the ultrasonic transceiver provides the computer with transceiver data consistent with the object detected through the captured image data.
