AUTOMATIC BRAKING SYSTEM INCLUDING LASER MODULE AND IMAGE CAPTURING MODULE AND VEHICLE HAVING SAME
First Claim
1. An automatic braking system for a vehicle, comprising:
- a laser module configured for emitting a laser beam along a forward direction of the vehicle and receiving the reflected laser beam;
an image capturing module configured for capturing a road image in front of the vehicle;
a braking module configured for slowing the vehicle; and
a control module electrically connected to the laser module, the image capturing module, and the braking module;
wherein when an intensity of the reflected laser beam is greater than a pre-set value, the image capturing module is controlled by the control module to capture the road image;
when the control module decides that there are human characteristics in the road image, the control module activates the braking module.

Abstract
An automatic braking system includes a laser module, an image capturing module, a braking module, and a control module. The laser module emits a laser beam along a forward direction of a vehicle and receives the reflected laser beam. The image capturing module captures a road image in front of the vehicle. The braking module slows the vehicle. The control module is electrically connected to the laser module, the image capturing module, and the braking module. When an intensity of the reflected laser beam is greater than a pre-set value, the image capturing module is controlled by the control module to captures the road image. When the control module decides that there are human characteristics in the road image, the control module activates the braking module.
