Driving assistance device, method, and computer- readable non-volatile storage medium
A driving assistance device, which is to be mounted on a vehicle capable of communicating with another vehicle, comprises a calculation unit configured to calculate a travel route of the another vehicle based on a communication result with the another vehicle, an arithmetic processing unit configured to determine whether the self-vehicle will interfere with the another vehicle traveling on the travel route calculated, and to generate a notification signal for giving a notification that the self-vehicle will interfere with the another vehicle, upon determination that the self-vehicle will interfere with the another vehicle, and an identification unit configured to identify a state of a shift range of the self-vehicle, wherein in a case where the shift range identified by the identification unit suppresses a movement of the self-vehicle, the arithmetic processing unit is deactivated.
1 . A driving assistance device to be mounted on a vehicle capable of communicating with another vehicle, the driving assistance device comprising:
a calculation unit configured to calculate a travel route of the another vehicle, based on a communication result with the another vehicle;
an arithmetic processing unit configured to determine whether the self-vehicle will interfere with the another vehicle traveling on the travel route calculated, and to generate a notification signal for giving a notification that the self-vehicle will interfere with the another vehicle, upon determination that the self-vehicle will interfere with the another vehicle; and
an identification unit configured to identify a state of a shift range of the self-vehicle, wherein
in a case where the shift range identified by the identification unit suppresses a movement of the self-vehicle, the arithmetic processing unit is deactivated.
2 . The driving assistance device according to claim 1 , wherein
in a case where the shift range identified by the identification unit suppresses the movement of the self-vehicle, the arithmetic processing unit suppresses generation of the notification signal based on the determination.
3 . The driving assistance device according to claim 2 , wherein
the arithmetic processing unit generates the notification signal based on the determination, based on a traveling state of the self-vehicle after a shift range of the self-vehicle is changed from a shift range that suppresses the movement of the self-vehicle to a shift range that permits the movement of the self-vehicle.
4 . The driving assistance device according to claim 3 , wherein
the shift range that permits the movement includes a D range and an R range.
5 . The driving assistance device according to claim 3 , wherein
the traveling state of the self-vehicle includes a vehicle speed of the self-vehicle, and
in a case where the vehicle speed of the self-vehicle is equal to or higher than a reference, the arithmetic processing unit generates the notification signal based on the determination.
6 . The driving assistance device according to claim 3 , wherein
the traveling state of the self-vehicle includes an accelerator opening degree of the self-vehicle, and
in a case where the accelerator opening degree of the self-vehicle is equal to or larger than a reference, the arithmetic processing unit generates the notification signal based on the determination.
7 . The driving assistance device according to claim 3 , wherein
in a case where a position of an intersection identified beforehand is present within a range of a predetermined distance from the self-vehicle, the arithmetic processing unit generates the notification signal based on the determination, regardless of the shift range identified by the identification unit.
8 . The driving assistance device according to claim 3 , wherein
in a case where the shift range of the self-vehicle is changed from the shift range that suppresses the movement of the self-vehicle to the shift range that permits the movement of the self-vehicle, the arithmetic processing unit generates the notification signal based on the determination, and
in a case where an oncoming vehicle is present as the another vehicle on a forward side of the self-vehicle, the arithmetic processing unit generates the notification signal based on the determination, based on the traveling state of the self-vehicle.
9 . The driving assistance device according to claim 3 , wherein
the calculation unit further calculates a travel route of the self-vehicle, based on the shift range identified by the identification unit, and
the arithmetic processing unit generates the notification signal based on the determination, based on the travel route of the self-vehicle and the travel route of the another vehicle.
10 . The driving assistance device according to claim 1 , wherein
in a case where the shift range identified by the identification unit is an R range, the arithmetic processing unit generates the notification signal based on the determination.
11 . A method of driving assistance for a vehicle capable of communicating with another vehicle, the method comprising:
a step of calculating a travel route of the another vehicle, based on a communication result with the another vehicle;
a step of determining whether the self-vehicle will interfere with the another vehicle traveling on the travel route calculated, and generating a notification signal for giving a notification that the self-vehicle will interfere with the another vehicle, upon determination that the self-vehicle will interfere with the another vehicle; and
a step of identifying a state of a shift range of the self-vehicle, wherein
in a case where the shift range identified suppresses a movement of the self-vehicle, the step of determining is performed, and the step of generating the notification signal is deactivated.
12 . A computer-readable non-volatile storage medium storing a program for causing a computer to be capable of reading a program that performs driving assistance for a vehicle capable of communicating with another vehicle,
the program causing the computer to:
calculate a travel route of the another vehicle, based on a communication result with the another vehicle;
determine whether the self-vehicle will interfere with the another vehicle traveling on the travel route calculated, and generate a notification signal for giving a notification that the self-vehicle will interfere with the another vehicle, upon determination that the self-vehicle will interfere with the another vehicle; and
identify a state of a shift range of the self-vehicle, wherein
in a case where the shift range identified suppresses a movement of the self-vehicle, determining is performed and generating the notification signal is deactivated.
