METHOD FOR CONTROLLING SECONDARY COLLISION AVOIDANCE OF VEHICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240336259 titled 'METHOD FOR CONTROLLING SECONDARY COLLISION AVOIDANCE OF VEHICLE

    • Simplified Explanation:**

The patent application describes a method for controlling a secondary collision avoidance system in a vehicle. It involves identifying the positions of other vehicles and obstacles around the vehicle while it is stopped, and then controlling driving and braking torques to avoid secondary collisions after a side collision.

    • Key Features and Innovation:**
  • Method for identifying positions of vehicles and obstacles around a stopped vehicle.
  • Control of driving and braking torques to prevent secondary collisions.
  • Focus on minimizing injury to passengers in the event of a collision.
    • Potential Applications:**

This technology could be applied in autonomous vehicles, enhancing their safety features and collision avoidance capabilities. It could also be integrated into advanced driver assistance systems in traditional vehicles.

    • Problems Solved:**

The technology addresses the issue of secondary collisions that may occur after an initial side collision, reducing the risk of further damage and injury. It aims to improve overall safety on the roads.

    • Benefits:**
  • Enhanced collision avoidance capabilities.
  • Minimization of injury to passengers.
  • Improved overall safety on the roads.
    • Commercial Applications:**

Potential commercial applications of this technology include integration into autonomous vehicles, advanced driver assistance systems, and fleet management solutions. It could be marketed to automotive manufacturers and technology companies in the transportation industry.

    • Questions about the Technology:**

1. How does this technology differ from existing collision avoidance systems in vehicles? 2. What are the specific algorithms used to identify positions of other vehicles and obstacles around the vehicle?


Original Abstract Submitted

a method for controlling a secondary collision avoidance of a vehicle, includes, while an autonomous vehicle is stopped, identifying the positions of another vehicle and an obstacle around the vehicle in advance, and when a side collision occurs by another vehicle, controlling, by an autonomous driving controller, a driving torque and a braking torque of the vehicle to avoid a secondary collision with a vehicle other than another vehicle or the obstacle which may occur after the side collision, minimizing injury to passengers.
