Recently, Tesla's lawsuit against the Internet celebrity Big V "Xiao Gang Senior" has frequently appeared on the hot search, on the grounds that the latter used the information network to carry out defamation and violated Tesla's right to reputation.
In April last year, "Xiao Gang Senior" did an emergency braking test (AEB) on the Tesla Model 3, and the results showed that tesla did not respond when facing a stationary fake car and a dummy at a speed of 50km/h, and directly hit it.
So, can Tesla's automatic emergency braking recognize pedestrians and successfully brake? In this regard, some car owners personally did a verification test.
On the evening of January 31, a blogger nicknamed "Zhao bowen" posted several videos on a platform, standing in front of the car and personally testing Tesla's AEB emergency braking system.
First, he tested his Model 3's judgment on pedestrians ahead when autopilot assisted driving was turned on. The video shows that the Model 3 detects the owner at a distance of 50km/h and slowly brakes.
Subsequently, he tested whether the vehicle could brake in front of a real person without turning on the Tesla Autopilot, only through the vehicle's AEB emergency braking system. The owner of the car stands directly in the middle of the road, this Tesla in front of the owner, the car issued a brake alarm, while the automatic emergency braking function started, less than 1 meter away from the owner of the car to successfully brake.
According to the data, the blogger of this live test Tesla AEB is a game live broadcast self-media, with more than 500,000 fans on a video platform.
He said that the reason for doing this test is to smash lies, seek truth from facts, and condemn the irresponsible test of a tens of millions of fans, "Big V", Xiao Gang.
Of course, this test is extremely risky, as AEB emergency braking is not 100% successful. This feature is designed to give emergency braking to avoid or mitigate collisions as much as possible when the driver has not had time to step on the brake pedal and when it is less than a safe distance from the vehicle or pedestrian in front.
The speed of the vehicle, the road environment or the wet and dry ground, the ground material, etc. will have an impact on the braking distance, so we remind everyone not to use real tests.
