ABSTRACT
A fuzzy logic based automatic braking system is proposed using distance and relative speed sensors as inputs and brake-pressure as output. Heuristic rules have been developed and implemented. The controller monitors the deceleration rate of the vehicle to prevent tire lock-up and the consequent loss of directional stability. The system offers the flexibility of setting the separation distance. Simulation of the controller for driving into a stationary or moving objects shows that the system is performing well. It also uses an anti lock braking system to decelerate the vehicle and a throttle on-off controller to accelerate the vehicle and maintain a fixed separation distance and drive behind the object in a tracking mode
A collision avoidance judging section is provided which, based on a relative connection between own vehicle and preceding vehicle, carries out a judgment as to whether or not a possible collision is avoidable by operating at least one of a steering wheel and a brake pedal, and a collision avoidance estimating section is provided which, based on the relative connection, carries out an estimation as to whether or not, after expiration of a predetermined time from the time of detection of the relative connection
