Sensor data and data from V2V messages are used to detect obstacles. Additional obstacles are identified in map data according to a vehicle's position. In response to detecting a turn intent, a controller calculates a turn path according to the detected obstacles and properties of the vehicle. The turn path is presented to a user, such as by display on a HUD or superimposing the turn path on an image from a forward facing camera. A desired steering angle to traverse the turn path may be displayed, such as relative to the current steering angle of the vehicle. Notifications regarding the path and turning intent of other vehicle may be displayed along with the turn path.

A method for providing driver assistance for an industrial truck and an industrial truck, particularly a forklift, including capturing steering movement of a steering device of the industrial truck, capturing images of at least part of a surrounding area of the industrial truck using at least one camera, superimposing both a travel path of contours of the industrial truck and a travel path of contours of a load transported on the industrial truck corresponding to the captured steering movement on the captured images, and displaying the captured images having the superimposed travel paths of contours of the industrial truck and the load transported on the industrial truck on a display device disposed in a region of a driver's position of the industrial truck. The contours of the load are obtained from a measurement system of the industrial truck or from virtual models of loads stored in an image processing device.

A periphery monitoring device includes: an acquisition section acquiring a steering angle of a vehicle; an image acquisition section acquiring a captured image from an image capturing section that captures an image of a periphery of the vehicle; a detection section acquiring detection information of an object around the vehicle; and a control section causing a display section to display a synthesized image including a vehicle image showing the vehicle and a periphery image showing the periphery of the vehicle based on the captured image. When the object is detected on a course of the vehicle traveling at the steering angle by a predetermined distance, the control section causes a virtual vehicle image to be displayed in the synthesized image to be superimposed on a course to the object with a position of the vehicle as a reference.

Upon determining a position of a pothole relative to a predicted vehicle path, one or more lights in a linear arrangement of lights are actuated based on the position of the pothole relative to the vehicle path.

A vehicular control system includes a camera having an exterior field of view at least forward of the vehicle. During a forward maneuver of the vehicle towing a trailer, the vehicular control system detects an object present exterior of the vehicle which ought not be impacted during the forward maneuver of the vehicle towing the trailer based at least in part on image processing by an image processor of image data captured by the camera. Responsive at least in part to detection of the object, the vehicular control system determines a forward driving path for the vehicle towing the trailer that avoids the detected object so that the trailer does not run over or contact the detected object. The vehicular control system determines the forward driving path at least in part responsive to (i) processing of captured image data and (ii) trailer data pertaining to physical characteristics of the trailer.

A cruise-assist image generation device includes: a steering-angle information acquisition unit acquiring steering angle information of a steering wheel; an additional line generation unit generating a cruise assist additional line corresponding to the acquired steering angle information and formed by combination of a given number of segments; and an additional line superimposing unit superimposing the generated cruise assist additional line on a taken image of the vehicle periphery to obtain a composite image. The additional line generation unit generates respective curved lines forming part or all of the given number of segments by quadratic curve approximation using coordinate data corresponding to the acquired steering angle information and including coordinates of two endpoints and one middle point representing each segment, and generating respective straight lines forming the remains of the given number of segments by collinear approximation using coordinate data corresponding to the acquired steering angle information and including coordinates of two end points representing each segment.

A vehicle for estimating a moving path of an object approaching from behind, and determining a probability for entering a rear lane and a probability of collision is provided. The vehicle includes a speed sensor that detects speed information, a direction sensor that detects driving direction information, and a radar that senses an object approaching the vehicle. A controller then estimates a moving path of an object traveling on a rear lane and approaching the vehicle from behind and determines whether the vehicle is able to enter the rear lane, based on the speed information acquired by the speed sensor, the driving direction information acquired by the direction sensor, and data of the object sensed by the radar. Accordingly, the controller detects a probability of collision with the object approaching the vehicle on the rear lane.

A driving assistance system for reversing a mining haulage vehicle, particularly for reversing a haul truck into a defined target position in a loading or dumping area, wherein the driving assistance system is configured that the target position is determined based on a logged loading tool position of the earthmoving machine, wherein steering instructions are provided to a light indicator when the transmission of the haulage vehicle is shifted to reverse.

A display control device includes a video data acquisition unit that acquires video data from a camera that captures a video image in a moving direction of a vehicle, a vehicle motion detection unit that detects motion information containing a steering angle of the vehicle, an expected path line generation unit that generates a main expected path line extending along a planned moving path in accordance with the steering angle from a center part of a width of the vehicle, a superimposed video generation unit that generates superimposed data, the superimposed data being video data where the main expected path line is superimposed on the video data, and a display control unit that transmits the superimposed data to a display unit so as to display a video related to the superimposed data on the display unit.
