SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR REDUCING INJURY TO AN OCCUPANT CAUSED BY A COLLISION

A system includes an autonomous driving controller configured to calculate data necessary to control rotation of a host vehicle when collision between the host vehicle and another vehicle is expected. The autonomous driving controller determines an expected collision position based on a heading angle of the other vehicle approaching the host vehicle and the center of the host vehicle. The autonomous driving controller determines whether the expected collision position and the position of an occupant of the host vehicle correspond to each other. Upon determining that the expected collision position and the position of the occupant correspond to each other, the autonomous driving controller calculates data necessary to rotate the host vehicle based on a safety index indicating the degree of damage to the occupant depending on a collision position and the position of the occupant.
