    Abstract: A potential collision is predicted by comparing estimates of the time-to-brake (TTB) and the time-to-turn (TTT) of a host vehicle (10) with a computed time-to-collision (TTC) (24; 64, 66, 76). The collision is deemed to be unavoidable when the smaller of TTB and TTT is greater than TTC. The TTT estimate is based in part on the lateral acceleration capability of the vehicle (10), and the lateral acceleration is initialized to a low value corresponding to its instantaneous capability (52), and is set incrementally higher than the actual lateral acceleration when the driver initiates evasive turning (54). The TTT and TTB estimates are increased by the time required to pre-charge the vehicle brakes (70, 80) so that brake pre-charging can be automatically initiated (74, 84) when required to optimize collision mitigation due to braking.

    Abstract: A lane change assist system (20) and method (80) are provided for assisting the driver of the vehicle in maneuvering a lane change. The system (20) includes a range sensor (24) mounted on a vehicle (10) for sensing range to an object (42) in a side detection zone (34) adjacent to one side of the vehicle (10). The system (20) also includes a controller (40) for determining when the side detection zone (34) is clear for the vehicle (10) to change lanes based on the sensed range signal. The controller (40) determines whether there is sufficient space to initial a lane change maneuver based on the sensed range signal and generates an output signal indicative thereof. An output is provided to warning lights (26, 28) indicative of the determined state for initiating the lane change maneuver.
