At a glance
-
Prevention of rear-end collisions
The danger is detected in time and the driver is warned visually and acoustically of an impending collision.
-
Quick response
In an emergency, braking is initiated immediately.
-
Pedestrian and cyclist detection
The integrated detection extends the system’s functionality to other road users.
By far – a safe system
Autonomous Emergency Braking[Van-LimitsSystem] makes MAN vans even safer and helps significantly reduce the risk of accidents on the road. It monitors the traffic ahead, warns visually and acoustically of insufficient distance and initiates automatic emergency braking if necessary. In combination with an automatic gearbox, even full braking to a standstill is possible[Van-30kmhLimit]. Rear-end collisions can thus be avoided and the consequences of accidents significantly reduced.
High safety by means of continuous monitoring
Autonomous Emergency Braking[Van-LimitsSystem] combines information from a radar sensor at the front of the vehicle and a camera in the windscreen, continuously monitoring the traffic ahead: The system detects the distances, positions and speeds of vehicles ahead, as well as pedestrians and cyclists. In the event of an impending collision, the driver is first warned by a visual and acoustic signal.
If the driver does not react to the warning, he is alerted to an impending rear-end collision by a brief single brake pulse. If the driver then steps on the brake, full braking power is immediately available. If the driver does not brake hard enough, Emergency Brake Assist[Van-LimitsSystem] increases the brake pressure so that the vehicle can stop before the obstacle.
In situations where a collision is unavoidable, the driver is also supported by automatic emergency braking – with an automatic gearbox, even to a standstill[Van-30kmhLimit]. Autonomous Emergency Braking[Van-LimitsSystem] therefore reduces the impact speed and can mitigate the consequences of a collision.
