Driving support apparatus for vehicle
View Patent ↗There is provided a driving support apparatus for a vehicle. A driving control unit determines whether or not a three-dimensional object ahead is a three-dimensional object having high reliability as a control object for an automatic brake control based on a condition set beforehand, when possibility of collision between the vehicle and the three-dimensional object ahead is determined to be high. When the reliability of the three-dimensional object ahead as the control object is determined to be low and the amount of increase in the accelerator opening degree is equal to or larger than a set value, the driving control unit cancels the execution of the automatic brake control.
1. A driving support apparatus for a vehicle comprising:
a three-dimensional object detecting unit for detecting three-dimensional object ahead information;
a collision possibility determining unit for determining a possibility of collision between the vehicle and the three-dimensional object ahead;
a brake control unit for executing an automatic brake control in order to prevent the collision against the three-dimensional object ahead when the possibility of the collision between the vehicle and the three-dimensional object is high;
a probability determining unit for determining whether the three-dimensional object ahead detected by the three-dimensional object detecting unit is a three-dimensional object having low probability as a control object based on a condition set beforehand; and
a canceling unit for canceling execution of the automatic brake control when it is determined by the probability determining unit that the three-dimensional object detected by the three-dimensional object detecting unit has low probability and an amount of increase in an accelerator opening degree is not less than a set value, even when it is determined that the possibility of the collision against the three-dimensional object ahead is high.
2. The driving support apparatus for a vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the canceling unit cancels the execution of the automatic brake control when the accelerator opening degree is equal to or more than a threshold value that is set to be almost fully open even if the probability determined for the three-dimensional object detected by the three-dimensional object detecting unit is higher than a probability set for canceling automatic brake control.
3. A driving support apparatus for a vehicle comprising:
a three-dimensional object detecting unit for detecting three-dimensional object ahead information;
a collision possibility determining unit for determining a possibility of collision between the vehicle and the three-dimensional object ahead;
a brake control unit for executing an automatic brake control in order to prevent the collision against the three-dimensional object ahead when the possibility of the collision between the vehicle and the three-dimensional object is high; and
a canceling unit for canceling execution of the automatic brake control when it is determined that the three-dimensional object detected by the three-dimensional object detecting unit is not an object that collision should be avoided and an amount of increase in an accelerator opening degree is not less than a set value, even when it is determined that the possibility of the collision against the three-dimensional object ahead is high.
