Driving support device
Disclosed is a driving support device that is capable of realizing driving support in consideration of a risk potential determination tendency of a driver. The driving support device is a device that estimates a risk potential that is a degree of a risk with respect to a risk target in driving of a vehicle and performs a driving support for a driver of the vehicle on the basis of the estimated risk potential, and includes: a risk potential bias setting unit that sets a risk potential bias that is a value for changing the risk potential on the basis of a risk potential determination tendency of the driver; and a risk potential estimating unit that changes the risk potential on the basis of the risk potential bias set by the risk potential bias setting unit.
1. A driving support device that estimates a risk potential that is the degree of a risk with respect to a risk target in driving of a vehicle and performs driving support for a driver of the vehicle on the basis of the estimated risk potential, comprising:
a risk bias setting unit configured to set a risk potential bias that is a value for changing the risk potential on the basis of a risk potential determination tendency of the driver; and
a risk potential estimation unit configured to change the risk potential on the basis of the risk potential bias set by the risk potential bias setting unit,
wherein the risk potential bias setting unit sets, in a case where the number of times that a driving operation for avoiding a risk at a specific point is performed by the driver is equal to or greater than a predetermined number of times that is set in advance, the risk potential bias for decreasing the risk potential relating to the specific point, and
wherein the risk potential estimation unit changes the risk potential at the specific point into a smaller value on the basis of the risk potential bias set by the risk potential bias setting unit.
2. The driving support device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the risk potential bias setting unit extracts a characteristic relating to a traffic environment at the specific point and sets, in a case where a point different from the specific point has the characteristic relating to the traffic environment, the risk potential bias for decreasing the risk potential relating to the different point, and
wherein the risk potential estimation unit changes the risk potential at the different point into a smaller value on the basis of the risk potential bias set by the risk potential bias setting unit.
