Abstract:
A system and method provide for collision avoidance by alerting a driver of a trailing vehicle of the presence of a leading vehicle in response to a predetermined condition. In accordance with one embodiment, the system may be mounting to the leading vehicle and may alert a distracted driver of the trailing vehicle that a rear impact is anticipated by a calculation including a speed differential between the trailing vehicle and the leading vehicle and a distance between the trailing vehicle and the leading vehicle. In accordance with another embodiment, the system may enhance driver awareness of the leading vehicle on a road shoulder by detecting the trailing vehicle within a predetermined area and activating a warning such as a strobe light.

Claim (Index 1):
A vehicle mounted collision avoidance system comprising:\n at least one sensor for mounting to a leading vehicle and operative to detect at least one variable selected from a group consisting of a distance to a trailing vehicle, a speed of the trailing vehicle and a speed differential between the leading vehicle and the trailing vehicle; a controller for determining whether a predetermined condition exists based on the at least one variable; and an alert for alerting a driver of the trailing vehicle of a possible collision, wherein the controller is further operative to activate the alert upon detecting the predetermined condition.
