- Test procedures such as EuroNCAP, NHTSA’s FMVSS 127, and UNECE 152 all require specific pedestrian to vehicle overlaps. These overlap variations allow the vehicle differing amounts of time to respond to the pedestrian’s presence. In this work, a compensation algorithm was developed to be used with the STRIDE robot for Pedestrian Automatic Emergency Braking tests. The compensation algorithm uses information about the robot and vehicle speeds and positions determine whether the robot needs to move faster or slower in order to properly overlap the vehicle. In addition to presenting the algorithm, tests were performed which demonstrate the function of the compensation algorithm. These tests include repeatability, overlap testing, vehicle speed variation, and abort logic tests. For these tests of the robot involving vehicle data, a method of replaying vehicle data via UDP was used to provide the same vehicle stimulus to the robot during every trial without a robotic driver in the vehicle.
