Zusammenfassung:A motor vehicle crash sensor system for activating an external safety system such as an airbag in response to the detection of an impending collision target. The system includes a radar sensor carried by the vehicle providing a radar output related to the range and relative velocity of the target. A vision sensor is carried by the vehicle which provides a vision output related to the bearing and bearing rate of the target. An electronic control module receives the radar output and the vision output for producing a deployment signal for the safety system.
