Pre-sense detects collision hazards around the car and initiates specific safety measures. A given vehicle may have only front, front and rear or 360° options.
If a problem is identified, the system may intervene with the Electronic Stabilization Control (ESC) system in the event of a skid. If a collision is imminent, the system warns the driver with visual, acoustic and haptic warnings and, if necessary, it will provide braking assistance to reduce vehicle speed or even a full brake application to avoid the collision. The system would then pretension the seat belts to reduce the driver or front passenger forward or lateral movements; close the side windows and sliding sunroof; and finally activate the hazard lights.
