Abstract
An emergency steering system for a vehicle includes a memory including instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to: receive information corresponding to an environment external to the vehicle; identify an obstacle in the environment external to the vehicle using the information; determine a distance between the vehicle and the obstacle; determine whether a collision is imminent; in response to determining that a collision is imminent, determine whether the vehicle can move within a lane of travel to avoid the collision; in response to determining that the vehicle can move within the lane of travel to avoid the collision, determine a trajectory of travel for the vehicle; generate a steering assist angle command based on the trajectory of travel; and control position of a steering mechanism of the vehicle using the steering assist angle command and a measured steering angle.
