    Abstract: A method and an apparatus are provided to recognize a shape of a road on which a vehicle is traveling. Road edge shapes on a left side and a right side of the vehicle are recognized, from positions of roadside objects detected based on detection information from an on-board radar. Lane shapes that are shapes of lane boundary lines on the left side and the right side of the vehicle are recognized, from positions of lane boundary lines detected based on an image captured by an on-board camera. For each of the left side and the right side, such that the recognized road edge shape and the recognized lane shape are compared with each other, and the road shape is identified based on the comparison results.

    Abstract: In an apparatus for controlling a vehicle to track another vehicle, a controller causes the controlled vehicle to track one of other vehicles as a target vehicle if one of the other vehicles meets a target-vehicle selecting condition. The target-vehicle selecting condition is required for selecting one of the other vehicles as the target vehicle. The controller recognizes an environment of a predicted travel road on which the controlled vehicle is predicted to travel using conditions of the predicted travel lane. The controller determines whether the predicted travel road allows lane changes based on the recognized environment of the predicted travel road. The controller adjusts the target-vehicle selecting condition based on a result of the determination.

    Abstract: A driving support system detects a target area ahead of the vehicle, a position or a moving direction, etc. of an object such as a pedestrian or another vehicle by using a camera or radar, as well as determines a probability of collision between the own vehicle and the object based on the position, etc. of the object, and performs a driving support for avoiding the collision when the probability of the collision is high. Further, a sensitivity of determination is set high when the object remains in the target area, or when the object is moving towards the target area, while the sensitivity is set low when the object is not present in the target area, or the object is moving away from the target area.
