VEHICLE ANTI-COLLISION SYSTEM Russian patent published in 2015 - IPC G08G1/16 

FIELD: physics, navigation.

SUBSTANCE: invention is intended to prevent collision of vehicles. When monitoring the surrounding space, a first initial state is obtained for a first object (18) located in the surrounding space (14) as a reference point during a first stopping event, wherein the initial state includes an indication of the initial position of the first object (18). During a second stopping event (S1), a determination (S2) is made of whether a vehicle (10) has moved between the first and second stopping events by a given minimum distance and/or whether a given minimum time has passed. The initial state is refreshed (S3) by indicating the position of at least a second object (18) located in the surrounding space (14) as a reference point if it is determined that a vehicle (10) has moved between the first and second stopping events by a distance exceeding the given minimum value and/or that a time greater than the given minimum time has passed. The actual position of the second object (18) is determined (S5) as the actual state for further intent to begin movement. A possible collision situation is detected (S6) if comparison of the actual and the initial state yields a distance greater than a given value. The invention also relates to an anti-collision apparatus.

EFFECT: warning a driver on presence of objects in the surrounding space.
