Saddle-ride vehicle with autonomous braking and method of operating same

A saddle-ride vehicle includes a forward travel sensor a brake that decelerates the vehicle by actuation of a rider-operable brake control. A controller identifies a trigger for an autonomous braking event for the brake. A rider sensor system is in electrical communication with the controller and includes one or both of: a rider cognition sensor operable to detect parameters of rider cognition and report rider cognition status to the controller, and a rider physical sensor operable to detect parameters of a physical engagement between a rider and the vehicle and report rider physical engagement status to the controller. The controller is programmed to perform one or both of the following in response to the identification of the autonomous braking event trigger: checking for a positive cognitive engagement of the rider with the rider cognition sensor, and checking for a positive physical engagement of the rider with the rider physical sensor.

Steering assist apparatus

A steering assist apparatus comprises a steering assist control means for performing a lane tracing assist control (LTA) and a lane changing assist control (LCA) and a non-holding determination means for determining whether or not a first non-holding condition that a non-holding duration time is more than or equal to a first time is satisfied and whether or not a second non-holding condition that the non-holding duration time is more than or equal to a second time shorter than the first time is satisfied. The steering assist control means raises a warning when the second non-holding condition becomes satisfied and stops the LTA when the first non-holding condition becomes satisfied while performing the LTA, and raises a waring when the second non-holding condition becomes satisfied whereas continues the LCA until a completion condition of the LCA becomes satisfied regardless of the non-holding while performing the LCA.

System and method for predicted vehicle incident warning and evasion

An in-vehicle data collection and processing device receives real-time data from a plurality of sensors relating to at least one of a current vehicle condition and a current driver condition. The device then predicts, by processing at least a portion of the real-time data through a pre-trained pattern recognition algorithm, a likelihood of occurrence of at least one of a plurality of incidents involving the vehicle. In response, the device outputs one or more types of warnings and/or conducts a vehicle evasive maneuver if the likelihood is predicted to be above one or more thresholds.
