Volvo S60 – Pedestrian Detetection with Full Auto Brake

10 02 2010

“The all-new Volvo S60 is sculpted to move you. It looks and drives like no other Volvo before and the car’s technology will help you to be safer and more confident behind the wheel,” says Stephen Odell, President and CEO of Volvo Cars. (www.volvocars.com)

But what really attracted my attention to this car, is it’s new Pedestrian Detection technology which combined with Full Auto Brake (already seen in other cars) could potentially save many lives on the road. If I am not mistaking, the car can use the Full Auto Brake only at speeds lower than 30 km/h.

Here are two photos of this car and a video which shows its new computing capabilities in action.
