Abstract: The teaching generally provide for an overrunable test vehicle for dynamic vehicle testing of advanced driver assistant systems. The overrunable test vehicle comprising a chassis with a control section defining a cavity, the control section having a first profile height, and a carrier section having a second profile height less than the first profile height, the carrier section including a mounting area configured to receive a soft target. The overrunable test vehicle including one or more unpowered casters supported by the chassis in the carrier section, two or more drive mechanisms at least partially disposed within the cavity of the control section having an electric motor and a drive wheel. The overrunable test vehicle also including a control system disposed within the cavity of the control section and in communication with each electric motor to operate each electric motor to provide propulsion to the overrunable test vehicle.

Abstract: An overrunable test vehicle including an electronically-controlled anti-slip braking system for reducing wheel slip during rapid deceleration comprising: a chassis, at least one electric motor connected to a first axle, a hydraulic braking system connected with the chassis and at least a second axle, a rotational speed sensor for determining a rotational speed of a connected axle, a ground speed sensor, and a controller connected with the electric motor, the hydraulic braking system, the rotational speed sensor, and the ground speed sensor. The controller is configured to calculate a difference between the rotational speed of the axle and the ground speed of the chassis to determine a slip threshold of the wheels, actuate the hydraulic brake system to apply a first stopping force, control at least one motor parameter of the electric motor to apply a second stopping force.
