Depending on the speed and intensity of the braking maneuver, this often comes down to fractions of a second in order to avoid rear-end collisions.<br \/>\nExisting systems, such as the adaptive brake light, which signals emergency braking, or driver assistance systems (e.g., distance assist), are not able to communicate a vehicle\u2019s braking readiness to following traffic through optical signals.<br \/>\nThe invention presented here addresses exactly this issue and provides following drivers with valuable additional reaction time by signaling the driver\u2019s braking readiness (foot off the accelerator, hovering over the brake pedal) through existing, standard lighting technology (third brake light). In this way, rear-end collisions in road traffic can be reduced.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Up to now, drivers of motor vehicles can only recognize that the cars in front of them are actively braking and reducing speed by the illumination of their brake lights.
