Adaptive cruise control (ACC) is an enhancement of conventional cruise control systems that allows the ACC equipped vehicle to follow a forward vehicle at a pre-selected time gap by controlling the engine, power train, and/or service brakes. This SAE Standard focuses on specifying the minimum requirements for ACC system operating characteristics and elements of the user interface. This document applies to original equipment and aftermarket ACC systems for passenger vehicles (including motorcycles). This document does not apply to commercial vehicles. Furthermore, this document does not address future variations on ACC, such as “stop&go” ACC, that can bring the equipped vehicle to a stop and reaccelerate. Future revisions of this document should consider enhanced versions of ACC, as well as the integration of ACC with Forward Collision Warning (FCW).
The Safety & Human Factors Steering Committee reports to the Motor Vehicle Council. The steering committee oversees SAE standard, recommended practice, and information report development and maintenance of its subcommittees, which include safety-related topics involving driver performance and interactions with vehicles and driving automation systems. The steering committee and subcommittees are responsible for human factors challenges in evaluation methods, human-machine interface design criteria, and user-automation system interaction. The steering committee provides input to the ISO TC22/SC39 Road Vehicle - Ergonomics subcommittee.
* Redlines comparisons are available for those standards
listed in the Revision History that contain a radio button. A
redline comparison of the current version against a revision is
accomplished by selecting the radio button next to the standard and
then selecting 'compare'. At this time, Redline versions only exist
for some AMS standards. SAE will continue to add redline versioning
with ongoing updates to SAE MOBILUS.

SAE MOBILUS supports the use of the AND, OR and NOT BOOLEAN operators ONLY function with the Advanced Search.
Wild Cards
Using the asterisk, ( * ) allows you to search for a partial word. For example, entering a keyword search of aero* will search for any word beginning with aero.
Using the question mark, ( ? ) allows you to search for a word with a single character wildcard. For example, searching for t?re would match both tire and tyre
Using Quotes
Words in double quotes " " are treated as a phrase. Conducting a search for "heat model" will return all results in which the exact phrase "heat model" is found, while "heat modeling" would NOT be included.
A term combined with a phrase will be joined with an OR operator.
Searching for Standards
When searching for a standard please use the entire Document Number assigned, which includes the abbreviation. A space can be used, or omitted between the abbreviation and number.
