ABSTRACT:
A method and arrangement for emergency braking of a vehicle includes a detection system on the vehicle which detects obstacles located in or near the direction of motion of the vehicle and generates corresponding data, sensors on the vehicle which generate data representing characteristic parameters of the condition of the vehicle, and an evaluating unit which determines, from the data on the obstacles and the parameters of the condition of the vehicle, target values for controlling the motion of the vehicle and, only upon determining that an impending collision of the vehicle with an obstacle is no longer avoidable by any action on the vehicle by steering or braking, triggers an automatic emergency braking for rapid deceleration of the vehicle.
