VSI Labs And FLIR Are Studying Whether Thermal Cameras Can Make Cars Safer

摘要

FLIR Systems has contracted VSI Labs to help study how thermal sensors can enhance automotive safety. VSI reports thattests completed in December 2019 at the America Center for Mobility near Detroit, MI showed that thermal sensors,developed by FLIR, combined with radar created an effective automatic emergency braking (AEB) system that can detectpedestrians, estimate their distance from a vehicle, and stop the vehicle at a safe distance.
