The company plans to install the system into its new models introduced next year.
It said: 'Pre-crash safety consists of three elements. The pre-crash sensor uses millimeter-wave radar to sense vehicles and obstacles on the road ahead, and an electronic control unit (ECU) to determine whether or not a collision is imminent based on the position, speed and travelling course of the object.'
The pre-crash seatbelt will then retract the seatbelt in advance to restrain the passenger immediately after an unavoidable collision is identified. The system also reduces collision speed.
