A vehicle collision avoidance assist apparatus keeps stopping a collision avoidance control to avoid a collision of an own vehicle with an object ahead of the own vehicle when the own vehicle turns, a predetermined condition is satisfied, and a collision condition is satisfied. While the own vehicle turns, the apparatus acquires an own vehicle turning angle which is an angle which the own vehicle has turned about a turning center from when the own vehicle starts turning and change the predetermined condition, depending on the own vehicle turning angle.

A method includes identifying a desired path for an ego vehicle. The method also includes determining how to apply steering control and torque vectoring control to cause the ego vehicle to follow the desired path. The determination is based on actuator delays associated with the steering control and the torque vectoring control and one or more limits of the ego vehicle. The method further includes applying at least one of the steering control and the torque vectoring control to create lateral movement of the ego vehicle during travel. Determining how to apply the steering control and the torque vectoring control may include using a state-space model that incorporates first-order time delays associated with the steering control and the torque vectoring control and using a linear quadratic regulator to determine how to control the ego vehicle based on the state-space model and the one or more limits of the ego vehicle.

A vehicular collision avoidance system includes a forward-viewing camera, a rearward-viewing camera, a rearward-sensing non-vision sensor and an electronic control unit. The vehicular collision avoidance system detects vehicles present forward and/or rearward of the equipped vehicle. Responsive to at least one selected from the group consisting of (i) data processing of image data captured by the rearward-viewing camera and (ii) data processing of sensor data captured by the rearward-sensing non-vision sensor, the vehicular collision avoidance system detects another vehicle approaching the equipped vehicle from the rear, determines that the other vehicle is traveling in the same traffic lane as the equipped vehicle, determines speed difference between the vehicles, and determines distance from the equipped vehicle to the other vehicle. Based on such determinations, the system determines that impact with the equipped vehicle by the other vehicle is imminent.

Provided is a collision avoidance control apparatus including a first sensor; a second sensor; a controller configured to execute collision avoidance control; and a memory configured to, when a specific object has been detected, record information on the detected specific object, the specific object being an object which has been detected by both of the first sensor and the second sensor, in which the controller is configured to execute the collision avoidance control when determining that there is an object based on any one of the first sensor and the second sensor, and determining that the object has been already recorded as the specific object in the memory.

A control device for collision avoidance assistance includes a processor. The processor is configured to execute region setting processing for setting an assistance determination region indicating a particular region forward of a vehicle, and to execute accumulation processing in which the processor gives an object a determination value and accumulates the determination value. The object is located in the assistance determination region. The determination value is decided according to the position of the object. The processor is configured to perform collision avoidance assistance control of assisting in avoidance of collision of the vehicle and the object based on driving environment information indicating a driving environment of the vehicle, when a cumulative value regarding the object calculated in the accumulation processing exceeds a predetermined threshold value.

According to one embodiment, a motion trajectory boundary is obtained based on a trajectory that has been planned to drive an ADV for a next time period. A safe driving area boundary is determined for the ADV based on perception data perceiving a driving environment surrounding the ADV. The motion trajectory boundary and the safe drivable area boundary are projected onto a map such as an HD map. A relative location of the ADV within the map relative to the motion trajectory and the safe drivable area boundary is determined. A fail-safe action or a fail operational action may be performed based on the relative location of the ADV in view of the motion trajectory boundary and the safe drivable area boundary.

A system for controlling operation of a vehicle during a turning maneuver includes an object detection sensor, a vehicle turning angle sensor, and a processor. A memory is communicably coupled to the processor and stores a turning alert zone module configured to determine if a speed of the vehicle is within a predetermined range of speeds and, if the speed of the vehicle is within the predetermined range of speeds, determine if a vehicle turning angle is above a predetermined threshold value. If the turning angle is above the predetermined threshold value, and using the turning angle, a turning alert zone is determined. The system may then determine if at least a portion of an object resides in the turning alert zone and, if at least a portion of an object resides in the turning alert zone, control an operation of the vehicle (for example, a braking operation).

A vehicle and an obstacle avoidance assist method thereof are capable of performing obstacle avoidance assist control by tracking a previously sensed obstacle that deviates from a sensing region of a sensor. The obstacle avoidance assist method of a vehicle includes: detecting at least one obstacle near a vehicle using a proximity sensor; determining a travel range corresponding to a predicted travel trajectory of the body of the vehicle based on a gear stage and a steering angle; determining at least one effective obstacle, based on the travel range, from the at least one detected obstacle; and outputting a warning about the determined at least one effective obstacle.

Disclosed are an apparatus for controlling a stop of a vehicle and a method thereof. In order to prevent a collision accident occurring by a second rear vehicle in an emergency stop of the vehicle in advance, the apparatus includes a vehicle sensor that detects various types of information on a target vehicle, a rear sensor that detects a first rear vehicle and a second rear vehicle driving behind the target vehicle, and a controller that is electrically connected to the vehicle sensor and the rear sensor to control an emergency stop of the target vehicle in consideration of a state of a field of view of the second rear vehicle with respect to the target vehicle when the target vehicle is stopped in emergency.

When two target objects cannot see each other and at least one of them is a moving object following lanes, the warning system identifies the couples of two predicted trajectories having at least one point in common or an inter-trajectory distance less than a distance threshold (d.sub.th), among all possible couples of two predicted trajectories for the two respective target objects, then calculates a probability of collision for each identified couple of trajectories, by determining a predicted collision time and calculating probability distribution functions for the positions of the two target objects at said predicted collision time, and checks whether or not the probability of collision calculated for at least one of the identified couples of trajectories is more than a collision probability threshold in order to trigger an alert towards at least one of the two target objects.
