Toyota: Collision-Avoidance Typed PCS
The Collision-Avoidance Support PCS is an autonomous vehicle system that detects pedestrians using camera and radar sensors. The system will stop the vehicle using automatic braking to avoid collisions with pedestrians. In the future, the use of wireless communication between vehicles and roadside infrastructure could be used to extend the Collision-Avoidance Support PCS system to include cases when the pedestrians are not directly in the field of view of the camera and radar sensor (e.g., pedestrians around the corner of a building, behind a parked vehicle, etc).
The Collision-Avoidance Support PCS vehicles will be operated by Toyota personnel in the ITS World Congress parking lot. Congress attendees will be able to ride these demonstration vehicles so to experience the driver assistance feature of the system including the automatic braking. Online pre-registration at https://toyota-pcs.secure.force.com/ is required. Showing a printout of the pre-registration at the Toyota booth in Orange County Convention Center are necessary.
