Car Safety Assessment Program New Europe (Euro NCAP) will enter autonomous emergency braking technology (AEB) in the testing criteria. Because, from the results of their surveys, such as Mercedes-Benz, Honda, Volvo and Infiniti have used it, while Jaguar, Range Rover, Audi and Lexus as optional.

when the driver behind the guardMercedes-Benz named AEB technology with Pre-Safe and Honda’s Collision Mitigation Braking System melabelnya. The function of this system alerts the driver if they are at a pace that does not comply with the safe distance for braking, seen from the distance between the car driver to objects in front of him. It uses the radar images and video to give you a road in front of the car complete, accurate, and real-time.

If the driver ignores the warning indicated, the AEB will make the car brakes on a regular basis, as well as preparing for other safety systems in cars (airbag, ABS, and others).

“Data shows that globally AEB system performance can reduce accidents by 27 percent. However, despite the introduction of active safety technologies can reduce deaths and injuries resulting from driving accidents, availability of AEB in Europe is far from standard,” wrote the Euro NCAP in a release, as quoted Autoblog.

ways to avoid incident AEBThe survey showed that 79 percent of cars sold in Europe has not completed the AEB, and 66 percent of manufacturers do not offer the AEB system in every new model they are marketed.

Michiel van Ratingen, Secretary General of Euro NCAP, said, “Accelerating the implementation of this technology will realize EU targets to cut road deaths 50 percent by 2020. For this reason, Euro NCAP decided to include the availability of the AEB provide an assessment based on the number star of the 2014 production vehicles and so on, and further hope that the European governments require AEB for all types of new vehicles. “
