• Abstract:
  The research in this report used three test scenarios to evaluate the automatic emergency braking (AEB) performance of four light vehicles when presented with a test surrogate designed to emulate a bicyclist or motorcyclist as the principal target vehicle (POV). Two motorcycle and two bicycle test surrogates, and two lateral overlaps per POV type, were used for each test scenario. Time-to-collision values at the onset of the test vehicle's forward collision warning and automatic braking initiated by the AEB systems are presented.
