Vehicle systems for adjusting resistance or sensitivity of steering wheels and/or accelerator pedals
Vehicle systems are disclosed. A vehicle system includes one or more sensors, a steering wheel, an accelerator pedal, a steering wheel actuator, an accelerator pedal actuator, and a controller. The controller is communicatively coupled to the one or more sensors and the steering sensitivity adjusting unit. The controller includes at least one processor and at least one memory module storing computer readable and executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the controller to detect an object based on output from the one or more sensors, and send to the steering sensitivity adjusting unit an instruction for adjusting a sensitivity of the steering wheel in response to detecting the object.

STEERING CONTROL SYSTEM
A steering control system includes a central processing unit. The central processing unit calculates a plurality of types of axial forces acting on the turning shaft based on a state quantity. The central processing unit calculates a distributed axial force which is used to calculate the command value by summing the plurality of types of axial forces at predetermined distribution proportions. The central processing unit calculates the axial forces to have hysteresis with change of the state quantity. The hysteresis of each axial force is adjusted to approach hysteresis of one specific axial force out of the plurality of types of axial forces.
