Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and a device for the lateral guidance of a vehicle. A warning device that outputs a warning signal when straying from a traffic lane is able to be turned off by a switching means when driving on a road that is not suitable for lateral guidance, in particular an inner-city road, and be turned on again when reaching a road that is suitable for lateral guidance.

Abstract: An alarm device serves for retaining a vehicle in a path. Each of two sides of a vehicle is installed with a respective alarm device. The power supply servers to supply power and is connected to an optical sensor. The optical sensor is installed externally to a vehicle for sensing light reflected from the spacing lines of a road and converts the light signal into current signals The optical sensor generates different currents according to the reflecting light. The signal converter serves to convert current signals into voltage signals. The voltage comparison and amplifying device serves to compare the voltage signals different parts of a road with a threshold value and amplifies the comparing result to the alarm display. The alarm display provides various alarming ways so as to alert the driver that the car has deviated from the path so as to improve the safety in driving.

Abstract: A haptic seat notification system includes a plurality of motors located in a driver's seat and operative to provide a directional stimulus to a driver. A forward detection apparatus is used to detect vehicle lane departure and a vehicle speed sensor is used to detect vehicle overspeed conditions. When the vehicle crosses a lane edge, the system provides a lane departure stimulus to the driver. When the vehicle is overspeed, the system provides an overspeed stimulus to the driver. When the vehicle crosses a lane edge while being overspeed, the system provides a curve overspeed stimulus to the driver.

Abstract: A system and method assist the driver of a motor vehicle in preventing accidents or minimizing the effects of same. In one form, a television camera 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 an image analyzing computer, which generates codes, that serve to identify obstacles. A decision computer mounted in the controlled vehicle receives such code signals along with code signals generated by the speedometer or one or more sensors sensing steering mechanism operation and generates control signals. Such code signals maybe displayed, and as synthetic speech or special sound generating and warning means used to warn the driver of the vehicle of approaching and existing hazards. The system may also use the control signals, particularly through application of fuzzy logic, to control the operation of the brakes and steering mechanism of the vehicle 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 or obstacles.

Abstract: Apparatus is provided for determining the distance of a vehicle from a roadway side marking. An arrangement of light sensitive sensor elements is fitted to the vehicle for optically scanning a portion of the roadway located in front of the vehicle. An evaluation unit, connected downstream of the sensor element arrangement, is also provided. Only one or a few sensor element lines are used as the sensor element arrangement. Each line scans a narrow strip of the roadway which runs in front of the vehicle, not parallel to the vehicle longitudinal axis, and extends laterally as far as the roadway side marking. The evaluation unit reads each sensor element line sequentially and processes the received signals to determine the lateral distance of the vehicle from the roadway marking. The relatively small quantity of data which accumulates permits the processing of the data digitally in real time by a conventional microprocessor. The apparatus is used as sleep warning system or lane guard for motor vehicles.

Abstract: A warning system for a vehicle obtains image data by three-dimensionally recognizing a road extending ahead of the vehicle and traffic conditions, decides that driver's wakefulness is on a high level when there is any one of psychological stimuli to the driver or that driver's wakefulness is on a low level when there is not psychological stimulus to the driver, estimates the possibilities of collision and off-lane travel, and gives the driver a warning against collision or off-lane travel when there is the high possibility of collision or off-lane travel. Another warning system for a vehicle obtains image data by three-dimensionally recognizing a road extending ahead of the vehicle and traffic conditions, discriminates between automobile roads and open roads on the basis of the image data and a traveling mode in which the vehicle is traveling, determines patterns of driving operations and traveling motions in a given time at the initial stage of travel on the road when the road is identified to be an automobile road, repeats the determination of patterns at given time intervals, detects dozed driving through the comparison of a reference value and a measured value and gives the driver a warning against dozing when the driver's wakefulness declines.
