A method includes ascertaining that an emergency braking operation of a single-track motor vehicle is to be automatically executed driver independently, and based on the ascertainment, automatically and driver-independently influencing a steering element of the motor vehicle during the execution of the emergency braking operation.

A braking force controller causes a first actuator unit to generate a target jerk when the target jerk is equal to or larger than a first jerk, causes the first actuator unit to generate the first jerk and a second actuator unit to generate a jerk obtained by subtracting the first jerk from the target jerk as an additional jerk when the target jerk is smaller than the first jerk and equal to or larger than the sum of the first jerk and a second jerk, and causes the first actuator unit to generate the first jerk and the second actuator unit to generate the second jerk as the additional jerk when the target jerk is smaller than the sum of the first jerk and the second jerk.

The disclosure relates to a method for displaying safety-relevant information on a display device of a vehicle. A speed of the vehicle, environment data representing an environment of the vehicle, a driver reaction time, and an emergency braking reaction time for an emergency braking driver assistance function are input, and used to superimpose an emergency braking marker and a driver intervention marker on the map representing a lane in which the vehicle is travelling in the display device. The emergency braking marker represents a future point in time and/or future location for an intervention of the emergency braking driver assistance function, and the driver intervention marker represents a future point in time and/or a future location for the latest possible intervention of the driver prior to the intervention of the emergency braking driver assistance function.

In a monitoring apparatus, a disparity calculator obtains, for each point of a target object, a pair of matched pixel regions in respective base image and reference image corresponding to the point of the target object. The disparity calculator calculates a disparity of each of the matched pixel regions of the base image relative to the corresponding matched pixel region of the reference image. A distance calculator corrects the calculated disparity of each of the matched pixel regions of the base image in accordance with a tolerable disparity range for the disparity to thereby increase the calculated disparity of the corresponding one of the matched pixel regions of the base image. The distance calculator calculates the depth distance of each point of the target object relative to the vehicle as a function of the corrected disparity of the corresponding one of the matched pixel regions.

Systems and methods for aircraft braking are disclosed. The systems and methods may comprise a control mode executive configured to receive a pedal input and calculate a gear deceleration command comprising a desired deceleration rate based on the pedal input; a pedal deceleration controller in electronic communication with the control mode executive configured to receive the gear deceleration command from the control mode executive and calculate a gear pedal command based on at least one of the gear deceleration command and a deceleration feedback; and a pedal executive in electronic communication with the pedal deceleration controller configured to receive the gear pedal command, and generate a pedal braking command based on the gear pedal command.

A hydraulic block of an electronic braking device for a vehicle may include: a block body including a controller mounting part to which an electronic control unit (ECU) is coupled and a motor mounting part to which a motor is coupled; an input port part disposed closer to the controller mounting part between the controller mounting part and the motor mounting part; an output port part disposed closer to the motor mounting part between the controller mounting part and the motor mounting part; and a hydraulic circuit part formed in the block body so as to extend from the input port part to the output port part, and housing a valve controlled by the ECU.

Methods, systems, and apparatus for a brake assist control system. The brake assist control system is for a vehicle. The brake assist control system includes a first sensor configured to detect driver awareness. The brake assist control system includes an electronic control unit. The electronic control unit is coupled to the first sensor. The electronic control unit is configured to determine that a brake pedal and an accelerator pedal are in a released position. The electronic control unit is configured to determine that there is vehicle movement. The electronic control unit is configured to determine that a driver of the vehicle is unaware of the vehicle movement based on the driver awareness. The electronic control unit is configured to reduce or eliminate the vehicle movement.

A brake pedal apparatus for a vehicle is provided. The brake pedal apparatus includes a fixing bracket fixedly installed in a vehicle, a pedal arm coupled to the fixing bracket to be rotatable about a first axis, and a collision rack coupled to the fixing bracket to be rotatable about a second axis which is different from the first axis. The collision rack is configured to rotate upon a collision with a collision bracket. The fixing bracket supports the pedal arm to allow the pedal arm to be movable in a predetermined direction. The collision rack blocks the movement of the first axis of the pedal arm, and upon the collision with the collision bracket, the collision rack allows the pedal arm to be disengaged from the fixing bracket, thereby reducing the risk of injuring the driver.

A control device for a hydraulic brake system of a vehicle; as a reaction to a supplied warning signal as to a probable, early request for braking, the control device being configured to force at least one wheel exhaust valve of the hydraulic brake system into an open position in an undelayed or delayed manner and to activate a motor of a motorized hydraulic device of the hydraulic brake system; and as a reaction to a supplied brake setpoint signal as to requested braking with a current, setpoint deceleration not equal to zero, the control device being configured to force the at least one wheel exhaust valve into a closed position and to control the motor according to the setpoint deceleration currently requested. The present invention also relates to a hydraulic brake system for a vehicle and to a method for operating a hydraulic brake system of a vehicle.

Described herein is a vehicle system configured to identify and mitigate inappropriate driving behavior. In some embodiments, the vehicle system may receive input information from one or more input sensors. The vehicle system may identify driving behaviors related to a vehicle from the received input. The vehicle system may determine whether the driving behaviors are inappropriate in light of one or more conditions affecting the vehicle. Upon identifying inappropriate behavior, the vehicle system may generate a set of corrective actions capable of being executed to mitigate the inappropriate driving behavior.
