The SCBS system uses a laser sensor mounted at the top of the windshield glass to scan for other vehicles or obstacles in front of the car when travelling at speeds of around 4-30 km/h. If a potential collision is detected, the system reduces the brake rotor (or disc) travel distance so that braking is faster when the driver applies the brake. If the driver fails to apply the brake or manoeuvre to avoid an impending collision, the system will then automatically apply the brake while also reducing the engine output.
