Abstract:
A system and method for mitigating or avoiding risks due to hazards encountered by platooning vehicles. The system and method involve interrogating, with one or more sensors, a space radially extending from a lead vehicle as the lead vehicle travels over the road surface, perceiving the environment within the space, ascertaining a hazard caused by an object in the space, and causing a following vehicle, operating in a platoon with the lead vehicle, to take a preemptive braking action to avoid or mitigate risks resulting from the hazard caused by the object in the space.

Claim (Index 33):
A system operating on a lead vehicle in a platoon with a following vehicle, the system configured to:\n (a) ascertain a hazard caused by an object in a space adjacent the lead vehicle from data generated by one or more sensors on the lead vehicle; (b) determine a preemptive action for the following vehicle, the preemptive action for avoiding or mitigating a risk associated with the hazard; and (c) relay one or more commands to the following vehicle indicative of the determined preemptive action, wherein the following vehicle is arranged to implement the preemptive action in response to the relayed one or more commands
