A vehicle control apparatus includes a branched lane determination section for determining whether an own vehicle lane in which an own vehicle is travelling is a branched lane, a reference line selection section for selecting as a reference line a lane marking on a side opposite to a side on which a branch lane branches from the own vehicle lane, a vehicle control unit for controlling the own vehicle to travel following an object preceding vehicle as a following control object, and a propriety determination section for excluding the object preceding vehicle from being the following control object if the own vehicle lane is determined to be a branched lane and a state quantity based on an offset distance between a movement track of the object preceding vehicle and the reference line exceeds a predetermined threshold.

Disclosed is a vehicle that may include a frame to support a power system, such as an engine, and one or more surface supports, such as wheels, to support the frame. The engine may include an internal combustion engine and a fuel supply system therefore. The engine may provide power to drive the wheels.

A vehicle drive control apparatus includes: an object detection unit which detects positions, speeds, and sizes of objects around an own vehicle; and a speed control unit which detects a moving object existing in a place adjacent to a scheduled travelling path of the own vehicle and a speed change induction obstacle inducing a future speed vector change of the moving object from the objects detected by the object detection unit and changes a speed of the own vehicle, on the basis of a relative position relation of the own vehicle and the detected moving object and the speed change induction obstacle.

An in-vehicle display system mounted on a host vehicle, which displays the surroundings of the host vehicle on a display in the vehicle cabin. The in-vehicle display system includes a target inter-vehicle distance acquisition unit configured to acquire a target inter-vehicle distance for speed control of the host vehicle relative to a preceding vehicle traveling ahead of the host vehicle, and a display control unit configured to display a host vehicle icon and a preceding vehicle icon on a traveling lane area displayed on the display when the preceding vehicle is detected.

Systems and methods use cameras to provide autonomous navigation features. In one implementation, a method for navigating a user vehicle may include acquiring, using at least one image capture device, a plurality of images of an area in a vicinity of the user vehicle; determining from the plurality of images a first lane constraint on a first side of the user vehicle and a second lane constraint on a second side of the user vehicle opposite to the first side of the user vehicle; enabling the user vehicle to pass a target vehicle if the target vehicle is determined to be in a lane different from the lane in which the user vehicle is traveling; and causing the user vehicle to abort the pass before completion of the pass, if the target vehicle is determined to be entering the lane in which the user vehicle is traveling.

A collision avoidance system for a work machine includes at least one sensor configured to generate a signal indicative of a presence of at least one obstacle in a surrounding area of the work machine. The collision avoidance system also includes a controller communicably coupled with the sensor. The controller is configured to receive the signal indicative of the presence of the obstacle in the surrounding area of the work machine from the sensor. The controller is also configured to determine a position of the obstacle relative to the work machine based on the signal received from the sensor. The controller is further configured to generate a control signal to prevent a movement of the work machine, halt the movement of the work machine, or reduce a velocity of the work machine based on the determination of the position of the obstacle.
