Systems, methods, and other embodiments described herein relate to generating a notification about a risk of a target vehicle toppling over due to wind. In one embodiment, a method includes determining a wind force of the wind at a location of the target vehicle and determining one or more characteristics of the target vehicle. The method includes determining whether there is a risk of the target vehicle toppling over based on the wind force of the wind and the one or more characteristics of the target vehicle. The method includes generating a notification about the risk.

A vehicle includes a front camera, a front radar, a corner radar, a corner LiDAR, and a controller configured to generate a first fusion mode by processing image data and radar data or to generate a second fusion mode by processing radar data and LiDAR data, wherein the controller changes the first fusion mode to the second fusion mode when the controller detects an abnormality of the front camera while performing avoidance control of the vehicle based on the first fusion mode, and performs the avoidance control based on the second fusion mode for a predetermined time period.

An image detection method determines a target object. A plurality of original images of a scene in front of a vehicle are obtained. An object in one original image is detected, and a degree of similarity between the object in the original image and the target object in a preset image is calculated. If the degree of similarity is greater than a preset similarity threshold, it is determined that the original image is a target image and the object is the target object. A position of the target object relative to the vehicle is determined and output. The method can recognize objects of interest in front of a driver.

A vehicle drive assist apparatus for avoiding collision of a vehicle with a recognized object recognizes a surrounding environment around the vehicle; acquires feature information of a three-dimensional object in the surrounding environment; sets a traveling path of the vehicle based on the surrounding environment; recognizes an aerial object based on the feature information; identify a type of the aerial object based on the feature information; determines whether the aerial object has a possibility of hindering traveling of the vehicle; performs steering control based on a control signal; continues normal traveling control when the aerial object does not have the hindrance possibility; estimates a falling point of the aerial object when the aerial object has the hindrance possibility; when the falling point is on the traveling path of the vehicle, sets a new traveling path to steer around the falling point and executes traveling control along the new traveling path.

An optical apparatus includes a deflector configured to deflect illumination light from a light source to scan an object, and configured to deflect reflected light from the object, a light guide configured to guide the illumination light form the light source to the deflector, and configured to guide the reflected light from the deflector to a light receiving element, an optical member having a reflective area that makes first light which is part of the illumination light from the deflector incident on the deflector by reflection, and a controller configured to obtain information regarding the deflector on the basis of information of the first light from the reflective area. In a cross-section including the optical path from the reflective area to the light guide, a width of the reflective area is smaller than a width of the illumination light on the reflective area.

The present invention provides a rearward warning system that includes a detection unit detecting a location of a target vehicle, an estimation unit estimating a traveling direction of the target vehicle based on the location of the target vehicle detected by the detection unit, and a setting unit setting a collision warning range in respect of a subject vehicle and changing the collision warning range based on the traveling direction of the target vehicle estimated by the estimation unit.
