Combining radar and video data, the system improves
detection of other vehicles and speeds its own reaction time.
Combining radar and video data in this way improves
detection of other vehicles and reduces the system's reaction time.

Beer and
other LLNL researchers are working to create a coordinated and distributed smart network
of «nodes» or machines with AI capability, which could be applied to any type
of autonomous
vehicle, drone or robot that might need to network and perform
detection missions.
Blind Spot
Detection detects
vehicles behind the C - pillars and in
other blind spots; Lane Change Assist detects approaching
vehicles when changing lanes, and Rear Cross Traffic Alert detects close
vehicles while reversing, such as out
of a parking space or driveway.
On the
other hand, blind - spot
detection, a relatively simple technology for the aftermarket, is currently offered on only about 22 %
of new
vehicles, but J.D. Power research indicates that 60 %
of auto purchasers want it.
The long list
of active safety features includes Blind Spot
Detection, which works directly alongside Lane Change Assist and Blind Spot
Detection with Rear Cross Traffic Alert to warn the driver
of any surrounding
vehicles, passengers or
other objects that may lead to a collision if unnoticed while the car is in motion.
HLDI research has also found that blind spot
detection lowers rates
of insurance claims covering damage to
other vehicles.
Utilizing both a camera and a millimeter wave radar system, the available Lexus Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian
Detection uses sensors to detect
other vehicles and / or obstructions in front
of the
vehicle.
The Q50 possesses
other great safety technologies such as Around View Monitor with Object Moving
Detection; Back - up Collision
Detection; Lane Departure Warning; and Predictive Collision Warning, which warns drivers

vehicle ahead.
The new E-Class represents another major advance by Mercedes - Benz in all these fields as the saloon marks the series - production debut
of a series
of innovative technical features which can not be found in any
other car in this
vehicle category - from the drowsiness
detection system to automatic emergency braking when an accident is imminent, from Adaptive Highbeam Assist to the Active Bonnet with its reversible actuation mechanism, from the air suspension with electronically controlled damping to the trend - setting BlueTEC exhaust aftertreatment system.
Blind Spot
Detection (BSD) and Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA) are also available as options, using sensors to monitor the side and rear
of the cee'd for
other vehicles in the driver's blind spots and give the driver a visual or audible alert.
For example, autonomous
vehicle sensors will likely include: a wheel encoder sensor for monitoring the movements
of the car; GPS for navigation; cameras near the rear - view mirror for colour and
other identification; radar on the front and rear bumpers for identifying traffic; lane departure, rear collision and pedestrian alerts; and a spinning light
detection and ranging sensor on the roof that will be used for generating a 3D map
of the environment.
