    Abstract: A lane-changing system suitable for use on an automated host-vehicle includes a camera, an inertial-measurement-unit, and a controller. The camera detects a lane-marking of a roadway traveled by a host-host-vehicle. The inertial-measurement-unit determines relative-motion of the host-host-vehicle. The controller is in communication with the camera and the inertial-measurement-unit. While the lane-marking is detected the controller steers the host-host-vehicle towards a centerline of an adjacent-lane of the roadway based on a last-position and a current-vector, and determines an offset-vector indicative of motion of the host-host-vehicle relative to the current-vector. While the lane-marking is not detected the controller determines an offset-position relative to the last-position based on information from the inertial-measurement-unit, determines a correction-vector used to steer the host-host-vehicle from the offset-position towards the centerline of the adjacent-lane of the roadway based on the last-position and the offset-vector, and steers the host-host-vehicle according to the correction-vector towards the centerline of the adjacent-lane.

    Abstract: A lane keeping system includes an absolute pressure sensor located in a door on each of opposing sides of a vehicle. Each sensor generates a signal indicative of a door cavity pressure on that side of the vehicle. A safety restraint system (SRS) controller is in communication with the pressure sensor. The SRS controller is configured to determine a collision event in response to the signal (e.g., increased pressure in the door as it is crushed) and activate a safety restraint component in response to the determined collision event. A lane keeping system (LKS) controller is in communication with the pressure sensors. The LKS controller determines a lateral wind force on the vehicle in response to the signal from each pressure sensor. The LKS controller determines a correction in response to the determined lateral wind force to maintain the vehicle along a desired path.
