Publication number: 20230054608Abstract: Techniques are described that enable automatic emergency braking (AEB) for a path-crossing target when a collision between a host vehicle and the target that is deemed imminent. Based on whether an acceleration of the host vehicle is above a threshold. Based on the acceleration, and, optionally, a location of the target relative to a crossing path (e.g., whether a portion of the target is within a suppression zone), an AEB system of the host vehicle is either activated or not activated, for example, suppressed. This suppression of the AEB system may include gating or nulling an AEB activation signal to prevent an emergency braking event. By managing the AEB system in a path-crossing scenario, many common false-positive AEB events (warnings, alerts, and/or braking) may be avoided. Furthermore, intentional vehicle maneuvers that comply with normal driving etiquette or rules can still be allowed for operator and passenger comfort, without risking safety.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 19, 2021Publication date: February 23, 2023Inventors: Wen-Yu Kuo, Yu Han
