That is standard in many vehicles, when I first got my license, I unfortunately got into a situation where I didn’t see pedestrians walking over a crosswalk as I approached, they were hidden by the A pillar, the 2016 Volvo V90 I drove at the time hit the emergency brake for me and it was quite effective.
Since then I have not been in that situation, I do my best to analyze and learn from my misstakes
Probably more expensive to make that system than airbags, don’t know about R&D. I’m assuming even the newest EyeSight is camera-based so there will be times it just can’t see
I wonder how much cheaper it is to install automatic braking.
