“Today, the U.S. Department of Transportation’s National Highway Traffic Safety Administration NHTSA finalized a new Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard that will make automatic emergency braking (#AEB), including pedestrian AEB, standard on all #PassengerCars and #LightTrucks by September 2029.” This is undoubtedly a major development in the automotive industry! 🚗 💨 NHTSA projects that this new standard, FMVSS No. 127, will save at least 360 lives a year and prevent at least 24,000 injuries annually. The proposal by NHTSA to mandate AEB comes nearly seven years after Euro NCAP - For Safer Cars, Vans & Trucks's timeline. So, what are the notable differences between the two? ✅ Firstly, NHTSA's #PedestrianAEB requirement applies only to pedestrians, whereas Euro NCAP's pedestrian AEB must cover both pedestrians and cyclists. ✅ Secondly, NHTSA mandates that pedestrian AEB must function at night. ✅ Thirdly, there are differences in operational conditions: - NHTSA requires #VehicleAEB to operate at speeds of 90 miles per hour or below, with the mandate to avoid collisions at speeds of 62 miles per hour or less with another vehicle. For pedestrian AEB, the requirement is 45 miles per hour or below, even if the pedestrian AEB system cannot entirely prevent accidents. - Euro NCAP demands that vehicle AEB operates fully to prevent collisions at speeds of up to 30 kilometers per hour, and at least halves collision speed at speeds of up to 60 kilometers per hour. Euro NCAP's pedestrian AEB requirement necessitates complete avoidance of pedestrian collisions at speeds of up to 60 kilometers per hour and avoidance of cyclist collisions at speeds of up to 30 kilometers per hour. #NHTSA #FMVSS #AEB #PedestrianAEB #NightCondition #RoadSafety #EuroNCAP #LifeSavingTechnologies

“This is a much welcome development. The decision to make AEB and PAEB mandatory is a significant acknowledgment that increased automation will make cars safer, “ says Veronika Nihlén, Zenseact's Head of Communications. The U.S. Department of Transportation’s National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration NHTSA) has decided that automatic emergency braking (AEB) and pedestrian AEB (PAEB) will be mandatory on US roads. The rule creates a new safety standard, stating that all new passenger cars and light-duty trucks must have AEB and PAEB as standard equipment starting from September 1, 2029. Under the new rules, all cars must be able to stop automatically to avoid hitting a vehicle ahead at speeds up to 62 miles per hour/100 kilometers per hour and must also detect pedestrians – even in darkness. The car's brakes will automatically engage at speeds up to 90 mph/145 kph if a crash with a car in front is likely, and up to 45 mph if a pedestrian is detected. According to NHTSA, the new standard will “save at least 360 lives a year and prevent at least 24,000 injuries annually.” Read the press release here: https://lnkd.in/edJNcTMV #towardszerofaster #carsafety #automation #NHTSA

Big step forward from National Highway Traffic Safety Administration NHTSA! Their new rule focuses on reducing serious injuries and saving lives by making vehicles safer for pedestrians. The proposed standard requires passenger vehicles to be designed to minimize the risk of injuries from head-to-hood impacts in crashes. As pedestrian fatalities continue to rise, this is exactly the kind of action we need to make our roads safer for everyone. #pedestriansafety #NHTSA #SaferRoads #VisionZero

National Highway Traffic Safety Administration NHTSA has finalized a rule requiring cars and light trucks weighing less than 10,000 pounds to come equipped with automatic emergency braking (AEB) systems by 2029. In addition to the ability to "stop and avoid contact with a vehicle in front of them" at speeds up to 62 mph, AEB systems must also be able to detect pedestrians and brake automatically at speeds up to 90 mph when a collision with a lead vehicle is imminent and up to 45 mph when a pedestrian is detected in its path.

Hot off the press 📣 The U.S. Department of Transportation’s National Highway Traffic Safety Administration NHTSA finalized a new Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard that will make automatic emergency braking (AEB), including pedestrian AEB, standard on all passenger cars and light trucks by September 2029. NHTSA projects that this new standard will save at least 360 lives a year and prevent at least 24,000 road injuries annually. As part of the larger #ADAS ecosystem, AEB uses sensors to detect the vehicle’s environment and either warn the driver or, if needed, automatically apply the brakes to avert a crash. This is where automotive semiconductor solutions, such as indie’s radar and computer vision products, will play a vital role in advanced driver assist features and help significantly reduce rear-end crashes and road user injuries and fatalities.
