The invention discloses an
automatic control system which is capable of preventing a driver from mistakenly stepping on an accelerator to cause a
traffic accident. The
automatic control system capable of effectively preventing mistaken stepping on an accelerator comprises a
distance measurement module, a speed sensor, an acceleration sensor, a
microprocessor and an audible and visual alarm, wherein the
distance measurement module is used for measuring distance S between a self car and a front car or an obstacle, and the
microprocessor calculates the current critical safe
braking distance S0 according to information obtained by the speed sensor and a road sensor, assigns a safety factor a and marks a safe
braking distance S1. When S is bigger than S0 and smaller than S1, the alarm sounds an alarm to remind the driver to take some measures. When S is smaller than S0, if the driver steps on the accelerator, an
electronic control unit (ECU) comprehensively processes information acquired by the acceleration sensor and other
system information, whether the driver mistakenly steps on the accelerator is judged, if the driver mistakenly steps on the accelerator, an instruction is output to adjust the opening degree of an air valve and
cut off an
oil supply system to enable the air valve to lose
efficacy, and the fact that the car speeds up to move forward due to the fact the driver mistakenly steps on the accelerator in
panic is avoided.
