Driving assistance device
A driving assistance device includes: an information receiver configured to receive information required for estimation of an other vehicle predicted route which is a predicted traveling route of another vehicle, from the other vehicle through wireless communication; and an electronic control unit configured to acquire a host vehicle predicted route which is a predicted travel route of a host vehicle, acquire the other vehicle predicted route; provide a warning to a driver of the host vehicle when the host vehicle predicted route and the other vehicle predicted route intersect each other, and prohibit the electronic control unit from providing the warning when determining that a predetermined parking lot traveling condition is satisfied, the predetermined parking lot traveling condition being a condition that is satisfied when the electronic control unit determines that the host vehicle is likely to be traveling in a parking lot.
1. A driving assistance device comprising:
an information receiver configured to receive information required for estimation of an other vehicle predicted route, the other vehicle predicted route being a predicted traveling route of another vehicle, from the other vehicle through wireless communication; and
an electronic control unit configured to
acquire a host vehicle predicted route, the host vehicle predicted route being a predicted travel route of a host vehicle, based on information about a position of the host vehicle and a traveling state of the host vehicle,
acquire the other vehicle predicted route based on the information received by the information receiver;
provide a warning to a driver of the host vehicle when the host vehicle predicted route and the other vehicle predicted route intersect each other, and prohibit the electronic control unit from providing the warning when determining that a predetermined parking lot traveling condition is satisfied, the predetermined parking lot traveling condition being a condition that is satisfied when the electronic control unit determines that the host vehicle is likely to be traveling in a parking lot.
2. The driving assistance device according to claim 1 , further comprising
a radar configured to acquire information about an object around the host vehicle, wherein
the electronic control unit is configured to determine whether there is a route obstacle based on the information about the object, and to determine that the predetermined parking lot traveling condition is satisfied when determining that there is the route obstacle, the route obstacle being an object that interferes with traveling of the host vehicle to a route intersection point where the host vehicle predicted route and the other vehicle predicted route intersect each other.
3. The driving assistance device according to claim 1 , further comprising
a map database configured to store map information including information for specifying a range of the parking lot, wherein
the electronic control unit is configured to determine whether the position of the host vehicle is included in the range of the parking lot based on the map information, and to determine that the predetermined parking lot traveling condition is satisfied when determining that the position of the host vehicle is included in the range of the parking lot.
4. The driving assistance device according to claim 1 , wherein the electronic control unit is configured to determine that the predetermined parking lot traveling condition is satisfied after a predetermined specific satisfaction condition is satisfied until a predetermined specific cancellation condition is satisfied, the predetermined specific satisfaction condition being a condition that is satisfied in at least one of a case where the host vehicle is likely to be entering the parking lot and a case where the host vehicle is likely to be located in the parking lot.
5. The driving assistance device according to claim 4 , wherein
the electronic control unit is configured to provide at least one of a parking assistance function and an obstacle detecting function, the parking assistance function being a function of executing a parking assistance process to assist the host vehicle in moving to a parking space, the obstacle detecting function being a function of executing a nearby obstacle warning process to notify the driver of a presence of the nearby obstacle when the nearby obstacle with which the host vehicle is likely to collide is detected at least while the host vehicle is moving toward the parking space, wherein
the electronic control unit is configured to determine that the predetermined specific satisfaction condition is satisfied when at least one of a condition that is satisfied when the electronic control unit executes the parking assistance process and a condition that is satisfied when the electronic control unit executes the nearby obstacle warning process is satisfied.
6. The driving assistance device according to claim 4 , wherein the electronic control unit is configured to determine that the predetermined specific satisfaction condition is satisfied when the host vehicle moves backward.
