The Toyota Motor Corporation will roll out a new set of active safety technologies in 2015 designed to help prevent or mitigate collisions across a wide range of vehicle speeds.
The technologies will be available in the form of two “Toyota Safety Sense” packages that will be launched in 2015, and offered across most passenger models and grades in Japan, Europe, and North America by the end of 2017.
The two packages will be offered based on the vehicle type – a “C” package for compact cars and a “P” package for mid-sized and high-end cars, Toyota said. 
The C package features three proprietary active safety technologies: a Pre-Collision System (PCS), which uses a camera and laser radar to detect objects ahead of the vehicle; a Lane Departure Alert, which alerts the driver if the vehicle deviates from the lane; and an Automatic High Beam, which automatically switches between high beams and low beams so as to not distract other drivers.
The P package, on the other hand, incorporates the three above-mentioned technologies and also includes a pedestrian detection function with the PCS. In addition, the package offers Radar Cruise Control functionality, which uses millimetre-wave radar to detect the speed of preceding vehicles and adjust vehicle speed accordingly.
