Vehicle collision system and method of using the same

A method is provided for use with a vehicle collision system. The method includes identifying one or more objects along a side surface of the vehicle, determining a highest threat object based on the vehicle's trajectory relative to the one or more identified objects, calculating a time-to-collision between the highest threat object and the side surface of the vehicle, determining a remedial action by comparing the time-to-collision with at least one threshold, and initiating the remedial action to avoid a collision between the side surface of the vehicle and the highest threat object. 提供了种结合车辆碰撞系统进行使用的方法。该方法包括识别沿着车辆的侧表面的个或多个物体，基于车辆相对于所识别的个或多个物体的轨迹确定威胁最高的物体，计算威胁最高的物体与车辆的侧表面之间的碰撞时间，通过将碰撞时间与至少个阈值进行对比来确定补救动作，以及启动补救动作以防止车辆的侧表面与威胁最高的物体之间的碰撞。
