Abstract: The invention relates to a lane device (30) and a method for detecting the lane of a vehicle (10), as well as to a selector device which interacts with the lane device (30). The lane device (30) contains evaluation means (32, 35, 37) for evaluating distance data (60, 61, 66) of at least one distance sensor (58, 59, 65), it being possible to determine a lateral distance (d1-d4) from a reference body (62, 64) which runs essentially continuously to the side of the lane, at least in sections, from the distance data (60, 61, 66). The evaluation means (32, 35, 37) are configured to acquire lane data (36) as a function of the distance data (60, 61, 66). According to the invention, the evaluation means (32, 35, 37) are configured to filter out interference information, caused in particular by vehicles (17) present in the region of the lane or discontinuities (63) of the reference body (62, 64), from the distance data (60, 61, 66).

Abstract: A driving assist system for assisting effort by an operator to operate a vehicle in traveling is provided. The driving assist system receives data including information on vehicle state and information on environment in a field around the vehicle. A controller, mounted to the vehicle, determines future environment in the field, makes an operator response plan in response to the determined future environment to determine command, and generates the command. The operator response plan prompts the operator to operating the vehicle in a desired manner for the determined future environment. At least one actuator, mounted to the vehicle, prompts the operator in response to the command to operating the vehicle in the desired manner.

Abstract: A system and method assists the driver of a motor vehicle in preventing accidents or minimizing the effects of same. In one form, a television camera or other ranging device is mounted on a vehicle and scans the roadway ahead of the vehicle as the vehicle travels. Continuously generated video picture signals output by the camera are electronically processed and analyzed by a fuzzy-logic-based image analyzing computer mounted in the controlled vehicle, which generates control signals and applies them to control the operation of the accelerator, brake, and steering system of the vehicle in a coordinated way to attempt to avoid or lessen the effects of a collision. In a particular form, the decision computer may select the evasive action taken from a number of choices, depending on whether and where the detection device senses other vehicles and obstacles. Warning signals may also be generated.

Abstract: In an automotive lane deviation prevention (LDP) apparatus capable of executing LDP control by which a host vehicle is avoided from deviating from a driving lane, a control unit includes an LDP control allotted amount calculation section that calculates, responsively to a host vehicle's turning state, a steering-control allotted amount for LDP control and a braking-force-control allotted amount for LDP control, in presence of the host vehicle's lane-deviation tendency from the driving lane. In order to avoid the host vehicle's lane-deviation tendency, steering torque is controlled responsively to a steering-torque-control controlled variable determined based on the steering-control allotted amount, whereas braking forces applied to respective road wheels are controlled responsively to braking-force-control controlled variables determined based on the braking-force-control allotted amount.

Abstract: In the event that the differential value of the target node deviation is equal to or greater than a deviation threshold, and the absolute value of the steering torque is equal to or greater than a steering torque threshold, the system outputs signals to a brake control device such that deceleration of the vehicle is made with a predetermined deceleration, and outputs signals to an electric power steering control device so as to cancel automatic steering, whereby the system enters a normal power steering mode, and the automatic driving mode is canceled. Thus, abnormal situations are precisely detected during automatic driving, giving consideration to the control error and the intent of the user, thereby enabling driving control matching the intent of the user.

Abstract: A lane-keep control system is installed in a host vehicle equipped with an inter-vehicle distance control system. The lane-keep control system is arranged to decrease a threshold to be compared with the vehicle traveling condition for determining the tendency of the lane deviation when the inter-vehicle distance is being executed, so that the deviation avoidance control during execution of the inter-vehicle distance control is started earlier than the deviation avoidance control during inexecution of the inter-vehicle distance is started.

Abstract: In a vehicle dynamics control apparatus enabling vehicle dynamics control and lane deviation prevention control, a processor of a control unit is programmed for determining a driving stability including a vehicle driveability and a vehicle stability, based on at least a steer angle, and for executing the vehicle dynamics control by producing a yaw moment corresponding to a controlled variable of the vehicle dynamics control when the driving stability is deteriorated, and for executing the lane deviation prevention control by producing a yaw moment corresponding to a controlled variable of the lane deviation prevention control when there is a possibility of lane deviation. The processor is further programmed for softening a criterion, which is used to determine the driving stability, based on the controlled variable of the lane deviation prevention control, only when the vehicle dynamics control is inoperative.
