Abstract:
A computer-implemented method for protecting a vehicle from a directed energy attack is provided. The method includes receiving, at the vehicle, a beam of directed energy, determining a threat level of the beam of directed energy, and causing the vehicle to automatically execute at least one evasive maneuver when the threat level of the beam of directed energy is greater than a predetermined threshold.
