Texas CAV Task Force

Automated Emergency Braking (AEB)

« Back to Glossary Index

a system that can detect an impending forward crash with another vehicle in time to avoid or mitigate the crash. The system first alerts the driver to take corrective action and supplements the driver’s braking to avoid the crash. If the driver does not respond the AEB system may automatically apply the brakes to assist in preventing or reducing the severity of a crash (10).
