Problems solved by technology

[0006] The danger here is that in the case of recurring false warning signals, the driver tends to ignore them, so that in the event of a truly dangerous situation there are serious consequences and the device is not used
In addition, in the event of false emergency braking, there is a risk of a rear-end collision caused by vehicles driving behind, which is also unacceptable in the case of non-collision hazards.
[0007] As a consequence it is therefore now either permissible to accept a significant efficiency limit or an increase in the number of false warning signals / reactions of such collision warning / consequence reduction systems

Embodiment Construction

[0044] figure 1 The main elements of a device 10 according to the invention for avoiding a collision or for reducing the severity of a collision resulting from a collision are shown. For a better understanding of the conceivable interactions between the device 10 and the components involved in the state of motion of the vehicle 22, see also here figure 2 .

[0045] The device 10 according to the invention comprises an input unit 12 , a detection unit 14 , a measurement unit 16 , a control unit 18 and an output unit 20 .

[0046] The input unit 12 is used for inputting traffic-related metrics and for determining traffic-related threshold values. The input unit 12 can be designed, for example, in the manner of a diagnostic PC. The traffic situation-related measure can be, for example, the expected reaction time of the driver. From the entered traffic-state-related metrics, a traffic-state-dependent threshold value is then determined. Furthermore, it is possible to select v...
