A number of illustrative variations may include a system and method of modifying steering wheel effort and end of travel limits dynamically during electronic power steering failure, steer-by-wire failure, or brake-to-steer implementation within a vehicle where steering systems have degraded or failed to provide a driver with a normal or near-normal steering driving experience while brake-to-steer systems are in use.

An imaging apparatus captures a rear area behind a vehicle and generates an image, and displays on the image at a position in the image corresponding to the position between the vehicle and a detection object a recognition image extending a predetermined distance in a height direction with respect to road surface and having transmittance that increases with height distance from the road surface. A display control apparatus simultaneously displays a bird's-eye view image of a vehicle, a rear area image behind the vehicle, and a guide image extending rearward and being spaced apart in the width direction of the vehicle, and displays an image on lower right or left of the bird's-eye view image based on a position of an obstacle existing on right or left rear side of the vehicle, and a second image on right edge or on left edge of the image outside the guide image.

A driver assistance device according to an embodiment includes a coupling angle acquirer that acquires a coupling angle between a towing vehicle and a towed vehicle coupled to the towing vehicle; and a notifier that issues a given notification in the towing vehicle when the towing vehicle is driven with the towing vehicle and the towed vehicle differing in orientation at a given value or more based on the coupling angle, the towing vehicle moves in a given distance or less while maintaining a steering angle, and the steering angle of the towing vehicle enables the towing vehicle and the towed vehicle to be placed in a serial state with the towing vehicle and the towed vehicle substantially matching with each other in orientation.

A vehicular trailer guidance system includes an electronic control unit (ECU), a plurality of vehicle cameras and at least one trailer camera including a rear trailer camera disposed at a rear portion of a trailer hitched to the vehicle. A display screen is disposed in the vehicle and viewable by a driver of the vehicle. The display screen displays video images derived from captured image data, with the displayed video images including bird's-eye view images of a region at least partially surrounding the vehicle and trailer including an area rearward of the trailer hitched to the vehicle. During a reversing maneuver, and via processing of captured image data, an instruction for maneuvering the vehicle and trailer in reverse toward a target location is generated by the ECU. The generated instruction includes at least an instruction pertaining to steering of the vehicle during the reversing maneuver.

A method for a vehicle safety is described. The method includes determining a current steering angle at which a vehicle is traveling. The method also includes displaying the current steering angle relative to a steering angle scale. The method further includes guiding an operator of the vehicle through feedback provided through a steering wheel of the vehicle while displaying the current steering angle relative to the steering angle scale.

The present disclosure relates to a method for displaying lane information of an electronic device. The method for displaying lane information according to the present disclosure includes: acquiring an image photographed while a vehicle is driving; dividing the acquired image according to a distance from the vehicle; detecting lane display lines in the divided areas; curve-fitting the detected lane display lines to a continuous curve; and displaying the curve-fitted curve on a predetermined user interface. According to the present disclosure, it is possible to improve the route visibility to the driver by recognizing the far-distance lane by determining whether the vehicle is in the driving lane. In addition, it is possible to more accurately provide the route guidance information by using the real-time lane recognition results for the display of the route guidance.

A method for the performance-enhancing driver assistance of a road vehicle on a track comprising the steps of: determining, in use, the current position and the current orientation of the road vehicle on the track by means of a tracking device; identifying an optimal trajectory in relation to the conformation of the track and/or the to road vehicle; determining, in use, a lateral deviation of the road vehicle from the optimal trajectory and/or an understeer/oversteer condition in curve; suggesting to the driver, by means of a haptic interface device arranged in such a way that it is perceivable by the driver and does not obstruct the driver's view of the road, depending on the lateral deviation and/or on the understeer/oversteer condition in curve, one or more actions to be performed in order to vary a lateral dynamic of the road vehicle in order to perform a mission which optimises the performance on the track.

A method for the performance-enhancing driver assistance of a road vehicle on a track comprising the steps of:

determining, in use, the current position and the current orientation of the road vehicle on the track by means of a tracking device; identifying an optimal trajectory in relation to the conformation of the track and/or to the road vehicle; determining, in use, a relative position of the road vehicle with respect to the optimal trajectory by identifying a longitudinal relative position on the optimal trajectory; suggesting to the driver, by means of one or more colours emitted or assumed by a light interface device, depending on the longitudinal relative position, one or more actions to be performed to vary a longitudinal dynamic of the road vehicle in order to perform a mission optimising the performance on the track.

A work vehicle includes: a body; a traveling apparatus capable of a turning travel; a speed detector capable of detecting a vehicle speed; a steering tool manually operable to steer the traveling apparatus; a notification apparatus; and a controller. The controller is configured or programmed to control the traveling apparatus in response to a manual operation, with use of a travel control module; determine, based on a relationship between the vehicle speed and a steering angle of the steering tool, whether at least one of the vehicle speed and the steering angle needs to be reduced, with use of a determination module; and control the notification apparatus to give a notification of the determination by the determination module, with use of a notification module.

A head-up display and a method for operating a head-up display for a motor vehicle. Virtual objects may be assigned to parts of the environment of the motor vehicle, where a virtual reference feature is obtained, the orientation of which is defined on the basis of a roadway that is or can be used by a vehicle. An orientation of the motor vehicle may be determined in relation to the virtual reference feature. A virtual object may be displayed when the part of the environment to which it is assigned lies within a field of view for the head-up display, wherein a horizontal position of the object that is displayed is defined in the field of view on the basis of the relative orientation to the virtual reference feature.
