Understanding The Stages of How The TSS Pre-Collision System (PCS) Works | Toyota 

This video will explain and provide a clear understanding of the different stages of the Toyota Safety Sense (TSS) Pre-Collision System (PCS) and what you could experience from the inside the vehicle. There are different stages of the PCS system and a better understanding of how the system works can be a benefit to the driver.
The Pre-Collision System (PCS) is one of the technologies that Toyota has packaged together in a suite of active safety technologies called Toyota Safety Sense (TSS). There are three different types of TSS systems (TSS-C, TSS-P, TSS 2.0) and the technologies in each can vary by model and year. Please visit Toyota.com/safety-sense or check your owner’s manual for model specific features, guidelines and limitations.
The PCS system uses an integrated forward-facing camera and grille-mounted radar, or laser system designed to help mitigate or hopefully avoid certain frontal collisions. TSS 2.0 enhances this system with the addition of low-light detection for pedestrians, plus daytime detection of bicycles.
Vehicle Detection
When PCS determines that the possibility of a frontal collision with another vehicle is high, it prompts the driver to take evasive action and brake by using an audio and visual alert. If the driver notices the hazard and brakes, PCS may use Brake Assist to provide additional braking force.
If the driver does not brake in a set time and the system determines that the possibility of a frontal collision with another vehicle is extremely high, the system may automatically apply the brakes, reducing speed to help mitigate the impact or avoid the collision entirely if possible.
Pedestrian and Bicycle Detection
Under certain conditions, if the Pre-Collision System determines that the possibility of a frontal collision with a pedestrian or bicycle is high, it prompts the driver to take evasive action and brake by using an audio and visual alert. If the driver notices the hazard and brakes, the system may use Brake Assist to provide additional braking force.
If the driver does not brake in a set time and the system determines that the risk of collision with a pedestrian or bicycle is extremely high, the system may automatically apply the brakes, reducing speed to help mitigate the impact or avoid the collision entirely if possible.
For TSS 2.0, PCS is designed to detect bicycles in daytime situations, as well as designed to detect vehicles and pedestrians in both daytime and low-light situations.
Although demonstrated on the 2019 Toyota C-HR, this feature is available on various other Toyota models. See owner’s manual for model specific guidelines and limitations.
