摘要: A system and method for assisting a driver in controlling a vehicle, the vehicle comprising one or more driver controls, the method comprising determining an optimal path for the vehicle; determining, based on the current motion of the vehicle and a current setting of one or more driver controls, a predicted path of the vehicle; determining if there is a difference between the optimal path for the vehicle and the predicted path of the vehicle; and if it is determined that there is a difference between the optimal path and the predicted path, delivering haptic and non-haptic feedback to the driver of the vehicle, the feedback comprising an indication that the driver should alter the current setting of one or more driver controls, wherein alteration of the setting of one or more driver controls modifies the motion of the vehicle to reduce the difference.
