wherein the controller moves a boundary of the ROI in a direction opposite to the steering direction of the vehicle in the same direction as the steering direction of the vehicle based on the steering information, and thus reduces a size of the ROI.
2. The vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the controller initially determines a predetermined region centering around a center point of the forward-view image within the forward-view image to be the ROI, and coordinates the ROI based on at least one of the steering information and the braking information.
3. The vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the controller moves a position of the ROI in the same direction as the steering direction of the vehicle based on the steering information.
4. The vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the controller moves a position of the ROI in proportion to the steering angle of the vehicle based on the steering information.
5. The vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the controller moves a boundary of the ROI in a direction opposite to the steering direction of the vehicle in the same direction as the steering direction of the vehicle in proportion to the steering angle of the vehicle based on the steering information, and thus reduces a size of the ROI.
6. The vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the controller moves a position of the ROI in an upward direction from a center point of the forward-view image based on the braking information.
7. The vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the controller moves a position of the ROI in an upward direction from a center point of the forward-view image in proportion to a braking deceleration of the vehicle based on the braking information.
8. The vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the controller acquires driving assistance information from an image of the ROI.
9. The vehicle according to claim 8 , wherein the driving assistance information is at least one of lane departure information, information about a distance between the vehicle and an object, and information about whether there is a high possibility of collision between the vehicle and the object.
10. A method for controlling a vehicle comprising:
acquiring a forward-view image by capturing an image about a forward region of a vehicle;
acquiring steering information by detecting a steering direction and a steering angle of the vehicle;
acquiring braking information by detecting a braking or non-braking state and a braking deceleration of the vehicle; and
determining a region of interest (ROI) within the forward-view image based on at least one of the steering information or the braking information of the vehicle,
wherein the determining a region of interest (ROI) includes:
moving a boundary of the ROI in a direction opposite to the steering direction of the vehicle in the same direction as the steering direction of the vehicle, and thus reducing a size of the ROI.
11. The method according to claim 10 , wherein the determining a region of interest (ROI) includes:
initially determining a predetermined region centering around a center point of the forward-view image within the forward-view image to be the ROI; and
coordinating the ROI based on the at least one of the steering information or the braking information.
12. The method according to claim 10 , wherein the determining a region of interest (ROI) includes:
moving a position of the ROI in the same direction as the steering direction of the vehicle based on the steering information.
13. The method according to claim 10 , wherein the determining a region of interest (ROI) includes:
moving a position of the ROI in proportion to the steering angle of the vehicle based on the steering information.
14. The method according to claim 10 , wherein the determining a region of interest (ROI) includes:
moving a boundary of the ROI in a direction opposite to the steering direction of the vehicle in the same direction as the steering direction of the vehicle in proportion to the steering angle of the vehicle based on the steering information, and thus reducing a size of the ROI.
15. The method according to claim 14 , wherein the determining a region of interest (ROI) includes:
moving a position of the ROI in an upward direction from the center point of the forward-view image in proportion to a braking deceleration of the vehicle based on the braking information.
16. The method according to claim 10 , wherein the determining a region of interest (ROI) includes:
moving a position of the ROI in an upward direction from the center point of the forward-view image based on the braking information.
17. The method according to claim 10 , further comprising:
acquiring driving assistance information from an image of the ROI.
18. The method according to claim 17 , wherein the driving assistance information is at least one of lane departure information, information about a distance between the vehicle and an object, and information about whether there is a high possibility of collision between the vehicle and the object.
