"textContent": "Embodiments herein relate to a large animal collision vehicle safety apparatus and method. At least one sensor (10) detects a first acceleration (A X ) in a longitudinal direction of a host vehicle (1). A first determination signal (D 1 ) is generated from the detected acceleration (A X ). At least one further sensor (11) detects a second acceleration (D Z ) in a vertical direction, and/or at least one still further sensor (12) detects an angular velocity about an axis extending in a lateral direction of the host vehicle (1). A second determination signal (D 2 ) is generated from the detected acceleration (A Z ) in a vertical direction. A third determination signal (D 3 ) is generated from the detected angular velocity. Judging means (16) judge whether the vehicle (1) has suffered a large animal collision through at least comparing the first, second and/or third determination signals (D 1 , D 2 , D 3 ) with preset reference signals (D REF ). Braking intervention of the host vehicle (1) is triggered when the vehicle (1) is judged to have suffered a large animal collision.",
