Volvo V40 (2012). Sistema Detección de Peatones

Pedestrian Detection with full auto brake is a technology that can detect if a pedestrian steps out into the road in front of the car. In an emergency situation the driver first receives an audible warning combined with a flashing light in the windscreen's head-up display. If the driver fails to react to the warning and a collision is imminent, full braking power is automatically applied. The technology can avoid a collision with a pedestrian at speeds up to 35 km/h if the driver does not react in time. At higher speeds, the focus is on reducing the car's speed as much as possible prior to impact.
