Abstract
Within this article, the testing method EVITA (Experimental Vehicle for unexpected Target Approach) for the evaluation of anticollision systems is presented. Using this method, it is possible to generate scenarios in a real test drive which are typical for rear-end collisions without endangering the occupants and vehicles. Furthermore, the criterion of speed reduction is explained to evaluate the effectiveness of the system, and finally the latest results are described.
