Abstract
Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture are disclosed herein that mitigate hard-braking events. An example apparatus at least one memory; instructions; and processor circuitry to execute the instructions to: determine a danger level associated with an object, the danger level indicative of a first measure of damage corresponding to a trajectory of the object compared to a trajectory of a vehicle; determine, based on the first danger level, a danger measure based on at least one of a position of the object, a velocity of the object, an acceleration of the object, a direction of travel of the object, a weight or mass of the object; and generate instructions to transmit to a steering system or a braking system of the vehicle based on the determination.
