A display device includes: a display unit configured to display an image on a windshield of a host vehicle; and an electronic control unit configured to: recognize other vehicles; determine whether a squeezing candidate vehicle having a possibility to squeeze before the host vehicle presents; calculate, when the squeezing candidate vehicle is determined to present, a first appearance interval that increases according to a time elapsed from a time when the squeezing candidate vehicle is last determined to present; and cause the display unit to display a first blinking display when the squeezing candidate vehicle is determined to present. The electronic control unit is configured to reduce a number of blinks of the first blinking display when the first appearance interval is smaller than a first threshold as compared with a case when the first appearance interval is equal to or larger than the first threshold.

A driving assistance system includes a deactivation controller that controls deactivation of Automatic Lane Change (ALC) control and a second driving assistance control (such as lane keeping control). During the ALC control, the deactivation controllet deactivates the ALC central when, for example, a control amount by a driver of a steering wheel or the like has exceeded a first deactivation threshold value. During the second driving assistance control, the deactivation controller deactivates the second driving assistance control when, for example, the control amount has exceeded a second deactivation threshold value. The first deactivation threshold value and the second deactivation threshold value are set to differ from each other.

A three-dimensional object detection device can enhance the accuracy in detecting a three-dimensional object regardless of the brightness in the detection environment. The device has an image capture means that captures an image of a predetermined area and an image conversion means that converts the image through a viewpoint conversion into birds-eye view image. A first three-dimensional object detection means aligns positions of bird's-eye view images at different times obtained by the image conversion means, counts the number of pixels that exhibit a predetermined difference on a differential image of the aligned bird's-eye view images to generate a frequency distribution thereby creating differential waveform information, and detects a three-dimensional object on the basis of the differential waveform information. A second three-dimensional object detection means detects edge information from the bird's-eye view image obtained by the image conversion means and detects a three-dimensional object on the basis of the edge information.

A vehicular vision system includes a camera module configured for mounting at an in-cabin portion of a windshield of a vehicle and viewing forward of the vehicle and through the windshield. The camera is electrically connected to circuitry established at the circuit board via a flexible electrical connection. Circuitry of the circuit board (i) provides electrical power to the camera via the flexible electrical connection, (ii) controls the camera via the flexible electrical connection, (iii) receives image data from the camera via the flexible electrical connection and (iv) includes a data encoder chip operable to encode captured image data. With the camera module mounted at the windshield, the circuit board is tilted at an acute angle relative to the longitudinal axis of the lens barrel of the camera. An image processor is operable to process image data captured by the camera for a driver assist system of the vehicle.

A lane departure preventing device includes at least one electronic control unit. The at least one electronic control unit is configured to: when there is a likelihood that a vehicle will depart from a traveling lane, calculate a prevention yaw moment, and control a brake actuator such that the prevention yaw moment is applied to the vehicle; acquire a lateral acceleration; determine whether the lateral acceleration is greater than an ideal value by a predetermined value; control the brake actuator such that the braking force matches a target braking force required to apply the prevention yaw moment to the vehicle, when the lateral acceleration is not greater than the ideal value by the predetermined value; and control the brake actuator such that the braking force is less than the target braking force, when the lateral acceleration is greater than the ideal value by the predetermined value.

An information providing device 1 of a motorcycle includes: an image acquisition section 10 that acquires an image of a road; a lane detection section 12 that detects a lane from the image and detects a radius of curvature of the detected lane and a lateral distance from the host vehicle to the lane; a host vehicle trajectory curvature calculation section 14 that calculates a radius of curvature of a host vehicle trajectory on the basis of the radius of curvature of the lane and the lateral distance; a vehicle speed acquisition section 16 that acquires a vehicle speed of the host vehicle; an inclination angle calculation section 18 that calculates an inclination angle of the host vehicle on the basis of the radius of curvature of the host vehicle trajectory and the vehicle speed.

A method of displaying a three-dimensional (3D) object includes acquiring a driving image from a single camera, classifying line marks including a road surface into one or more groups based on a change in a curvature of a line of the road surface, estimating a pitch angle corresponding to an angle of inclination between the road surface and the single camera for each of the one or more groups, generating 3D information of the road surface, and displaying an 3D object visually overlaid on the road surface based on the 3D information of the road surface.

A displace device for a vehicle includes a display unit and a controller. The controller is configured to: receive an image of a road in which the vehicle is located and trajectory information providing a trajectory of vehicle movement, detect one or more lanes of the road based on the received image of the road, assign weights to (i) the detected one or more lanes and (ii) the trajectory of vehicle movement, respectively, based on a preset reference value, generate a virtual road image providing a direction based on the assigned weights, and control the display unit to display the generated virtual road image.

A method for controlling a vehicle as it travels along a road includes processing at an ECU provided image data captured by a forward viewing camera and processing at the ECU a provided output indicative of a determined geographical location of the vehicle. Responsive at least in part to processing of the provided output, a geographically-derived path of travel of the vehicle is generated. Responsive to determination of a traffic lane in which the vehicle is traveling along the road, a camera-derived path of travel of the vehicle is generated. The vehicle is controlled based on (i) the geographically-derived path of travel of the vehicle and/or (ii) the camera-derived path of travel of the vehicle. The vehicle is controlled based on diminished weight of the geographically-derived path or diminished weight of the camera-derived path when a respective reliability level is below a threshold level.

A method for determining a position of a vehicle in a lane includes receiving perception information from a first camera positioned on a first side of a vehicle and a second camera positioned on a second side of the vehicle. The method includes determining, using one or more neural networks, a position of the vehicle with respect to lane markings on the first side and the second side of the vehicle. The method further includes notifying a driver or control system of the position of the vehicle.
