Key Product Launches in Automotive Safety Market – 2007
Collision avoidance is a key development area – Europe’s first system using Radar + Camera
sensor fusion for Emergency braking

Driver Alert Control (DAC) Park4U Semi-autonomous Parking


Production Models : S80, V70 and XC70 Production Models : VW Touran, Tiguan
Sensor Used : CMOS Camera Sensor Used : Ultrasonic sensors
Developed by : Volvo, Mobileye Developed by : Valeo
System Functioning : LDW camera monitors distance System Functioning : The system measures a parallel
between the car and the road lane markings to determine parking space and guides the car into the gap taking steering
whether the driver risks losing control or not. control, with the driver required to just accelerate or brake.

Collision Warning with Automatic Braking PathFindIR – Automotive Night Vision


Production Models : S80, V70 and XC70 (Aftermarket) *
Sensor Used : Camera + Radar Sensor Used : Far Infra-red camera
Developed by : Volvo, Mobileye, Delphi Developed by : FLIR + NAV-TV
System Functioning : Sensor fusion of radar and System Functioning : PathFindIR is an autonomous,
camera data for obstacle detection with initial audio and video stand-alone camera system that uses thermal imaging for
warnings followed pre-charging of the brakes or automatic- improved road visibility in night driving conditions. The system

Only Features that Play a Role During the Actual E of the
Crash Are Perceived to be Contributing to Safety
Respondents perceive technologies (ABS, Seatbelts, Airbags) traditionally associated with accident scenarios to play an important part in
vehicle safety. Technologies not primarily associated with accident scenarios are perceived to be not as important to vehicle safety.
