CAPCHOC: Vehicle system to detect pedestrians on a short range
Description
This system based on a capacitive sensor integrated in the front face of a vehicle allows to detect a pedestrian (by modification of the electric field generated by the sensor on a short range) and offer the capability to trigger a protection device before the impact (e,g airbag…).
The capacitive sensor is coupled with a signal treatment software which allows to accurately discriminate the presence and the distance of a pedestrian.
Benefits:
- Short range detection of a pedestrian before impact and low sensitivity to the environment constraint (rain, saline smog…)
- High selectivity of the pedestrian detection via a powerful discrimination of the type of obstacle
- Optimized analysis of the approach parameter (vehicle speed, distance)
- Easiness to integrate the sensor system (metallic screen)
