Crash Avoidance Metrics Partnership Crash Imminent Braking NHTSA / Honda Meeting November 16, 2009
Background • Crash Avoidance Metrics Partnership (CAMP) cooperative agreement • Initiated in 2005 • Task 2, Crash Imminent Braking • Initiated September 2007 • Planned completion August 2010 • Members: • Continental, Delphi Corporation, Ford Motor Company, General Motors Corporation and Mercedes-Benz
Crash Imminent Braking • Project Objectives • Develop and validate performance requirements and objective tests for imminent crash automatic braking systems • Establish preliminary safety estimates • Project Deliverables • Performance specifications for CIB systems • Test procedures for evaluating systems • Methodology for estimating benefits • Key Project Aspects • OEM & supplier participation • Multiple USDOT agencies and offices • Interdependent collaboration throughout project
Timeline Project Timeline: Start Sept, 2007 w/ 35 month duration Project Management: Throughout Project Scoping & Technology Selection: 1 year Test Vehicle Builds & Test Plans: 8 months Conduct Tests: 6 months Final Test & Benefits Methods: 10 months Expected Finish Date: August, 2010 CAMP - Crash Imminent Braking Consortium
Milestone Plan Task 1 Project Management Task 2 Target crash scenarios and development of preliminary functional requirements Task 3 Technology survey and synthesis of countermeasure candidates Task 4 Determine the initial minimum performance specifications Task 5 Preliminary evaluation and ranking of candidates Task 6 Development and fabrication of prototype systems suitable for testing Task 7 Development of objective test plans Task 8 Demonstration and validation of the objective tests Task 9 Finalization of the performance and test specifications Task 10 Finalization of the benefits Final Report CAMP - Crash Imminent Braking Consortium
Test Methods Evaluated • Vehicle-to to-Vehicle Crashes: • Opposite Direction - Front to Front • Rear End -Front to Back • Left Turn Across Path / Opposite Direction • Front to Front and Front to Right Side • Straight Crossing Path • Front to Left Side and Front to Right Side • Turning – Front to Left Side • Vehicle-to to-Object Crashes: • Pedestrian • Road Departure - Pole • Road Departure - Tree • Road Departure - Ground • Road Departure - Structure
Current Status • Baseline vehicle testing complete • Prototype vehicle developed • Initial prototype testing conducted • Evaluation ongoing • Completed real world operational assessment • Ongoing analysis • Final test development underway • Benefits analysis progressing
