Introduction to Suzuki ASV technologies

摘要

"The safety of vehicles"-this is the top priority theme for Suzuki's R&D activities. Broadly classified, the safety of vehicles has two aspects: active safety and passive safety. Active safety refers to helping the driver drive his/her carsafely. while passive safety concerns protecting the driver and passengers from serious injuries when the car is involved in an accident.The Suzuki Advanced Safety Vehicle (ASV). now under research and development. will have: (1) a navigation system, and (2) a vehicle distance warning system as active safety devices; and a mini-car airbag system that serves as a passive safety' feature.Some of the achievements of this R&D project are summarized in this report.Under the slogan "Vehicles friendlly to humans," Suzuki will remain actively committed to research into and development of human-to-machine interfaces and systems to warn and protect other vehicles and pedestrians.
