One embodiment of a braking system for vehicles may have a first brake group and a second brake group. The first and second brake groups may have respective braking devices and electro-hydraulic actuator devices operatively connected to the first braking device. The system may also have an interconnection branch between first and the second hydraulic actuation ducts, provided with a control valve. The system may also have at least one control unit that may be programmed to actuate the control valve to control the ducts and fluidly connect the ducts.

A method for operating a safety component in a motor vehicle. The method includes: determining a stored threshold value, which is provided for a comparison with an operating parameter of the safety component to set an error value when the operating parameter reaches the threshold value; ascertaining an error value when the threshold value is reached; collecting threshold-value correction data when the threshold value is reached or when a situation occurs in which it is expected that the threshold value will be reached, and transmitting threshold-value correction data to a central data processor; receiving from a central data processor at least one corrected threshold value for correcting the threshold value during the operation of the safety component, the correction data having been ascertained from error data that were ascertained in identically designed safety components of other motor vehicles; and adopting the corrected threshold as the stored threshold value.

The vehicle stop position accuracy is improved. A parking assist device, which assists parking of a vehicle at a target stop position, includes: a traveling distance calculation unit that calculates a traveling distance of the vehicle based on a wheel speed pulse; and a braking/driving force calculation unit that determines a remaining distance to the target stop position based on the traveling distance, and switches control of the braking force of the vehicle from feedback control to feedforward control when the remaining distance becomes a value equal to or less than a predetermined value.

A braking assist control device for a vehicle including a detector and a braking assist control device is provided. The braking assist control device includes an acquisition unit configured to acquire information on an ambient environment of an own vehicle from the detector, and a control unit configured to cause the braking assist device to perform intersection entry prevention assist in a case where it is determined, using the acquired information on the ambient environment, that the own vehicle is approaching an intersection and an own lane in which the own vehicle is traveling is a non-priority lane with respect to an intersecting lane.

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to assisted driving of a vehicle. The response time of the driver may be measured and control operations may be adjusted to accommodate or compensate the response time of the driver. Predictive actions in anticipation of a slightly delayed input from the driver may be taken to avoid potentially dangerous conditions. A vehicle may be controlled to slow down to allow more time to a potential event to accommodate a slow response from the driver.

A system for controlling driving of a vehicle, includes one or more processors configured to: identify objects, including another vehicle, around a host vehicle and collect object information about the objects; collect road states information of road states in a traveling direction of the host vehicle; check the object information around the host vehicle and the road states information to identify a safety zone to which the host vehicle is able to travel; and control the host vehicle to travel to the safety zone when the other vehicle is detected in the traveling direction of the host vehicle in a state in which the host vehicle has entered a curved road.
