Evasion Assistant
Principle
The Evasion Assistant can support the driver in
making evasive manoeuvres in certain situations,
for example, when obstacles or persons sud‐
denly appear.
General
The system issues warnings and intervenes to
provide support if there is a possibility to take an
avoidance manoeuvre to the side. Sensors moni‐
tor and detect the clearance in front of the vehi‐
cle. If the vehicle is equipped with side radar sen‐
sors, the areas next to the vehicle are also
monitored. The system then utilises the detec‐
ted free space to take the avoidance manoeuvre
by steering the vehicle safely and precisely in the
direction specified by the driver by means of
supporting steering wheel movements.
