Abstract

A forward collision avoidance system of a vehicle includes a detector configured to detect an obstacle positioned ahead in a traveling direction of the vehicle; a processor; a memory coupled to the processor and storing an algorithm that, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to: estimate a gradient of a road on which the vehicle is traveling, and determine a braking strategy of the vehicle based on the estimated gradient, a position of the detected obstacle and a velocity of the vehicle; and a controller configured to control braking of the vehicle based on the braking strategy of the vehicle determined by the processor.
