Eco-friendly vehicle and method for evaluating valet mode driving therefor
Disclosed may be a method for evaluating valet mode driving of a vehicle. The method includes determining whether or not a valet mode entry condition may be satisfied, determining a plurality of driving evaluation factors for valet parking based on at least one of a vehicle status or a driving environment, upon determining that the valet mode entry condition may be satisfied, calculating a valet driving evaluation score by analyzing the determined driving evaluation factors and collecting result values acquired through analysis, and displaying the calculated valet driving evaluation score.
1. A method for evaluating valet mode driving of a vehicle, the method comprising:
determining whether or not a valet mode entry condition is satisfied;
determining a plurality of driving evaluation factors for valet parking based on at least one of a vehicle status or a driving environment, upon determining that the valet mode entry condition is satisfied;
calculating a valet driving evaluation score by analyzing the determined driving evaluation factors and collecting result values acquired through analysis; and
displaying the calculated valet driving evaluation score.
2. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising guiding the valet parking so as to allow the valet driving evaluation score to reach a high score.
3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein different weights predetermined depending on the plurality of determined driving evaluation factors are applied to the respective driving evaluation factors.
4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of driving evaluation factors comprises at least one of impulse of the vehicle, sudden acceleration and sudden braking, a driving distance of the vehicle, a frequency of turning-on of an engine of the vehicle, a frequency of gear shifts of the vehicle, or shaking of the vehicle.
5. The method according to claim 4 , wherein the impulse of the vehicle is extracted or calculated using at least one of a wheel speed change of the vehicle, a difference between a wheel speed and an acceleration sensor value of the vehicle, or a pitch rate.
6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein, in the calculating the valet driving evaluation score, the valet driving evaluation score is continuously calculated until the valet parking has been completed.
7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein, in the displaying the calculated valet driving evaluation score, the calculated valet driving evaluation score is compared with a predetermined evaluation score, and a warning notification is output and is transmitted to a smart device of a vehicle owner, when the calculated valet driving evaluation score is less than the predetermined evaluation score.
8. The method according to claim 2 , wherein, upon determining that the valet mode entry condition is satisfied, an emergency braking apparatus, a Blind Spot Detection (BSD) system, a lane departure warning system, or safety assistance systems and functions are controlled to be activated based on the vehicle status or the driving environment in a valet mode.
9. A non-transitory computer readable recording medium having recorded thereon a program to execute the method according to claim 1 .
10. An apparatus for evaluating valet mode driving of a vehicle, the apparatus comprising:
an entry determiner configured to determine whether or not a valet mode entry condition is satisfied;
an evaluation factor determiner configured to determine a plurality of driving evaluation factors for valet parking based on at least one of a vehicle status or a driving environment, upon determining that the valet mode entry condition is satisfied;
a controller comprising an evaluation score calculator configured to calculate a valet driving evaluation score by analyzing the determined driving evaluation factors and collecting result values acquired through analysis; and
a display configured to display the calculated valet driving evaluation score.
11. The apparatus according to claim 10 , wherein the controller further comprises a driving guide unit configured to guide the valet parking so as to allow the valet driving evaluation score to reach a high score.
12. The apparatus according to claim 11 , wherein different weights predetermined depending on the plurality of determined driving evaluation factors are applied to the respective driving evaluation factors.
13. The apparatus according to claim 10 , wherein the plurality of driving evaluation factors comprises at least one of impulse of the vehicle, sudden acceleration and sudden braking, a driving distance of the vehicle, a frequency of turning-on of an engine of the vehicle, a frequency of gear shifts of the vehicle, or shaking of the vehicle.
14. The apparatus according to claim 13 , wherein the impulse of the vehicle is extracted or calculated using at least one of a wheel speed change of the vehicle, a difference between a wheel speed and an acceleration sensor value of the vehicle, or a pitch rate.
15. The apparatus according to claim 10 , wherein the evaluation score calculator continuously calculates the valet driving evaluation score until the valet parking has been completed.
16. The apparatus according to claim 10 , wherein the display outputs a warning notification and transmits the warning notification to a smart device of a vehicle owner, when the calculated valet driving evaluation score is less than a predetermined evaluation score.
17. The apparatus according to claim 11 , wherein the evaluation factor determiner activates an emergency braking apparatus, a Blind Spot Detection (BSD) system, a lane departure warning system, or safety assistance systems and functions based on the vehicle status or the driving environment in a valet mode, upon determining that the valet mode entry condition is satisfied.
