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

The method described in the patent application aims to control secondary collision avoidance in vehicles, specifically focusing on avoiding secondary collisions that may occur after a side collision with another vehicle.

  • While the autonomous vehicle is stationary, it identifies the positions of other vehicles and obstacles around it in advance.
  • In the event of a side collision by another vehicle, the autonomous driving controller adjusts the driving torque and braking torque of the vehicle to prevent a secondary collision with other vehicles or obstacles.
  • The goal is to minimize passenger injury by proactively avoiding potential secondary collisions.

Potential Applications: - Autonomous vehicles - Collision avoidance systems - Vehicle safety technology

Problems Solved: - Minimizing the risk of secondary collisions after a side collision - Enhancing passenger safety in vehicles

Benefits: - Improved vehicle safety - Reduced risk of injury in the event of a collision

Commercial Applications: Title: Advanced Collision Avoidance System for Autonomous Vehicles This technology can be utilized in the automotive industry to enhance the safety features of autonomous vehicles, appealing to consumers looking for advanced safety measures in their vehicles.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does this method differ from traditional collision avoidance systems? This method focuses on preventing secondary collisions that may occur after an initial side collision, which is a unique approach to vehicle safety.

2. What impact could this technology have on the insurance industry? This technology could potentially lead to reduced insurance claims and payouts due to its ability to prevent secondary collisions and minimize the severity of accidents.


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.
