VEHICLE COLLISION MANAGEMENT SYSTEM RESPONSIVE TO A SITUATION OF AN OCCUPANT OF AN APPROACHING VEHICLE

摘要

Described embodiments include a system, method, and vehicle. A system includes a collision management algorithm utilizable in determining a management of a possible collision between a collision-managed vehicle and an approaching vehicle. The collision management algorithm is responsive to sensor-acquired data descriptive or indicative of at least one occupant of the approaching vehicle. The system includes a damage mitigation circuit configured to determine in at least substantially real time a collision mitigation strategy applicable to the collision-managed vehicle. The collision mitigation strategy is determined in response to (i) the collision management algorithm, (ii) sensor-acquired data descriptive or indicative of at least one occupant of the approaching vehicle, and (iii) a predicted likelihood of a collision between the collision-managed vehicle and the approaching vehicle. The system includes an instruction generator circuit configured to generate a collision management instruction responsive to the determined collision mitigation strategy.
