Unlike the parking sensors studied, which issue warnings when the vehicle gets too close to a vehicle or other object, it doesn't depend
on driver response to be effective.
Course components include a video presentation, a course leader - guided discussion, and
Driver Response books for each participant.
And collision avoidance systems have a variety of capabilities, including audible alerts that
require driver response, automatic emergency braking and even steering the car out of harm's way.
«When looking
at driver response, deceleration rates were more gentle when presented with the countdown timers, and we did not find that drivers accelerated to try to beat the light — those are positives for safety.
The HMI system is even capable of «learning» driver preferences and habits to
anticipate driver responses in specific environments and situations.
Forward Collision Warning - Plus warns the driver if impact appears imminent, and
assists driver response by deploying brakes
The Koenigsegg website states: «To supplement the energy from the combustion engine and to allow for torque vectoring, regenerative braking,
extreme drivers response, reverse and energy conversion, there are three YASA developed electric motors.
The electronic stability and traction control systems on all Camry models have also been rebooted to allow
more driver response and control.
Extensive track testing was done to ensure that Collision Prevention Assist met targets for when warnings were given to the driver and data was analysed to
understand driver response to these warnings.
«The effects can be additive, synergistic or antagonistic and it is generally not possible to extrapolate from single - to multiple -
driver responses», Prof. Riebesell explains.
AdvanceTrac ESC constantly monitors road conditions and
driver responses, adjusting engine power and applying ABS to help keep all your wheels firmly planted.
If there is
no driver response, the system triggers a brief brake application as a tactile alert.
That said, lowering of the engine has contributed to lowering the centre of gravity of the DB9 as a whole improving handling and
driver response.
This system reads road conditions and
driver response, continuously adjusting the damper settings to deliver a composed and comfortable ride quality
