The Bendix Wingman Fusion – a radar and camera collision mitigation system (CMS) available on commercial vehicles – was evaluated in two separate test series to determine its performance in simulated rear collision scenarios. In the first series of tests, evaluations were conducted in daytime, nighttime, and rainy conditions between 15 to 58 miles per hour (mph) to evaluate the performance of the audible and visual forward collision warning (FCW) system in a first-generation Bendix Wingman Fusion CMS while approaching a stationary live vehicle target (SLVT) in a 2017 Kenworth T680. A second test series was conducted with a 2017 Kenworth T680 traveling at 50 mph in daytime conditions approaching a decelerating vehicle to evaluate the Bendix Wingman Fusion CMS on the truck. Both test series sought to determine the maximum distance the system would warn prior to the test driver swerving around the SLVT or moving vehicle target.
