Apparatus and method for compensating for error of vehicle sensor

An apparatus and method for compensating for an error of a vehicle sensor for enhancing performance for identifying the same object are provided. The apparatus includes a rotation angle error calculator that calculates a rotation angle error between sensor object information and sensor fusion object information. A position error calculator calculates a longitudinal and lateral position error between the sensor object information and the sensor fusion object information. A sensor error compensator calculates a sensor error based on the calculated rotation angle and a position error. In calculating the rotation angle error, the sensor error compensator corrects an error of the sensor object information based on the rotation angle error, and compensates for the sensor error based on the longitudinal and lateral position error between the corrected sensor object information and the sensor fusion object information.

Control system for vehicle

A control system for a vehicle is provided, which includes an accelerator pedal and a steering wheel configured to be operated by a driver, an accelerator opening sensor configured to detect an accelerator opening corresponding to operation of the accelerator pedal, a steering angle sensor configured to detect a steering angle corresponding to operation of the steering wheel, and a controller configured to set an additional deceleration to be applied to the vehicle in order to control a posture of the vehicle based on the detected steering angle, when the steering wheel is turned, and apply the additional deceleration to the vehicle. The controller sets the additional deceleration based on the detected accelerator opening, in addition to the steering angle, and sets the additional deceleration larger while the vehicle is towing than while the vehicle is not towing, when the additional decelerations are compared at the same accelerator opening.
