Patent attributes
A collision mitigation system for a vehicle includes a plurality of cameras, a radar sensor and/or lidar sensor, and a control that may process data captured by the cameras, radar sensor and/or lidar sensor. When the vehicle is moving and responsive at least in part to a determination that the vehicle is approaching an object present forwardly of the vehicle, the control is operable to control application by an automatic emergency braking system of a vehicle brake of the vehicle to mitigate collision with the object. Responsive to determination that a following vehicle is following the vehicle and when the determined following vehicle is within a threshold distance from the vehicle and is approaching the vehicle above a threshold rate of approach, the control adjusts automatic emergency braking of the vehicle to mitigate collision at the rear of the vehicle by the determined following vehicle.
