Systems and methods are provided for intelligent driving monitoring systems, advanced driver assistance systems and autonomous driving systems, and providing alerts to the driver of a vehicle, based on anomalies detected between driver behavior and environment captured by the outward facing camera. Various aspects of the driver, which may include his direction of sight, point of focus, posture, gaze, is determined by image processing of the upper visible body of the driver, by a driver facing camera in the vehicle. Other aspects of environment around the vehicle captured by the multitude of cameras in the vehicle are used to correlate driver behavior and actions with what is happening outside to detect and warn on anomalies, prevent accidents, provide feedback to the driver, and in general provide a safer driver experience.

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.

A method performed by an electronic device is described. The method includes obtaining sensor data corresponding to multiple occupants from an interior of a vehicle. The method also includes obtaining, by a processor, at least one occupant status for at least one of the occupants based on a first portion of the sensor data. The method further includes identifying, by the processor, at least one vehicle operation in response to the at least one occupant status. The method additionally includes determining, by the processor, based at least on a second portion of the sensor data, whether to perform the at least one vehicle operation. The method also includes performing the at least one vehicle operation in a case that it is determined to perform the at least one vehicle operation.

Systems and methods for situational behavior of an autonomous vehicle are disclosed. In one aspect, an autonomous vehicle includes at least one perception sensor configured to generate perception data indicative of at least one other vehicle on a roadway, a non-transitory computer readable medium, and a processor. The processor is configured to determine that the other vehicle is violating one or more rules of the roadway based on the perception data, tag the other vehicle as a non-compliant driver, and modify control of the autonomous vehicle in response to tagging the other vehicle as a non-compliant driver.

A method, performed by an electronic device installed in a vehicle, of switching a view of an image displayed on a camera monitoring system (CMS) side display, and an electronic device are provided. The disclosure includes an electronic device for displaying, on a camera monitoring system (CMS) side display, a first image representing a surrounding environment image, detecting a lane change signal of the vehicle, and, in response to the detected lane change signal, switching the first image displayed on the CMS side display to a second image representing a top view image showing locations of the vehicle and a surrounding vehicle in a virtual image as looking down from above the vehicle, and displaying the second image, and displaying a lane change user interface (UI) indicating information about whether a lane change is possible on the second image, and an operation method thereof.

An apparatus and method for controlling driving of a vehicle are provided and the apparatus includes a lamp that projects a lamp light onto one of a left floor surface or a right floor surface of the vehicle, a camera that obtains an image of an area onto which the lamp light is projected, and a controller that determines whether to output a warning based on the image of the area onto which the lamp light is projected when the lamp light is projected onto a boundary stone located around at least one of the left floor surface or the right floor surface of the vehicle.

A mobile device positioning method and a mobile device positioning apparatus (900) are disclosed. Perception vector elements (301 and 302) are associated with projection vector elements (303 and 304) based on horizontal positions of the perception vector elements (301 and 302) extracted from an image and horizontal positions of the projection vector elements (303 and 304) obtained through projection of vector elements in a map. In this way, when the horizontal positions of the associated perception vector elements (301 and 302) and the horizontal positions of the associated projection vector elements (303 and 304) are separately arranged in a same order, horizontal position distribution of all the arranged perception vector elements (301 and 302) is consistent with that of corresponding projection vector elements (303 and 304) in the arranged projection vector elements (303 and 304), and pose estimation is performed on a mobile device based on an association result.

Disclosed are devices, systems and methods related to direct and indirect methods for detecting wind speed and direction during driving. An example method may include estimating, by a processor of a vehicle controller, a speed and a direction of wind movement near the vehicle based on a first sensor output from a wind sensor, or a second sensor output from a non-wind sensor, or a combination of the first sensor output and the second sensor output, wherein a primary purpose of the wind sensor is wind detection, and a primary purpose of the non-wind sensor is different from wind detection, and generating a control output indicative of a vehicle disturbance force resulting from the wind based on the estimated speed and direction of the wind movement.
