System and method for controlling stop of vehicle
A system for controlling stop of a vehicle includes a steering angle comparison device that detects a current steering angle of the vehicle and compares the detected current steering angle with a preset limit steering angle when a malfunction of a steering system in the vehicle is detected during autonomous driving, a partial braking induction determination device that determines a position of a tire of the vehicle to be subjected to partial braking for steering control of the vehicle according to a result of the comparing between the current steering angle and the limit steering angle, and a partial braking control device that determines an amount of braking to be applied to each determined tire of the vehicle and applies a braking pressure corresponding to the amount of braking to each tire of the vehicle to perform the steering control by the partial braking.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR TRAILER ANGLE DETECTION
A trailer angle identification system includes an imaging device configured to capture an image. A controller is configured to receive steering angle data corresponding to a steering angle of a vehicle, receive vehicle speed data corresponding to a vehicle speed, and estimate an angle of the trailer relative to the vehicle by processing the image, the steering angle data, and the vehicle speed data in at least one neural network.
Apparatus and method for displaying rear image of vehicle
Disclosed are an apparatus and method for displaying a rear image of a vehicle. The apparatus for displaying a rear image of a vehicle includes a rear camera configured to capture a rear image of the vehicle, a steering angle sensor configured to sense a steering angle of a steering wheel, a display unit, and an image processing unit configured to convert the rear image captured by the rear camera when the vehicle moves backward into an image in a direction where the vehicle is to move backward according to the steering angle of the steering wheel that is sensed by the steering angle sensor, and display the converted image in the direction where the vehicle is to move backward through the display unit.
System and method for parking tracking using vehicle event data
A system and method is provided for determining where a vehicle has parked in a parking lot. The method includes determining a geometry for a parking lot; receiving vehicle event data including periodic vehicle event data for vehicle speed and steering angle; tracking a movement of a vehicle using the vehicle event data; and determining where a vehicle has parked using a steering angle to determine a number of turns in the parking lot geometry.
Yaw stability control system for a motor vehicle
A yaw stability control system is provided for a motor vehicle. The system includes one or more cameras, a plurality of wheel speed sensors, a yaw angle sensor, and a steering angle sensor. The system further includes an electric motor connected to a reaction wheel. The system further includes a processor and a memory including instructions such that the processor is programmed to: determine a desired yaw angle of the motor vehicle based on a video signal, speed signals, a yaw signal, and a steering signal. The processor is further programmed to generate an actuation signal associated with the desired yaw angle. The electric motor angularly rotates the reaction wheel at a predetermined angular rate in a predetermined rotational direction to produce a counter-acting torque that rotates the motor vehicle to the desired yaw angle, in response to the electric motor receiving the actuation signal from the processor.
Systems and methods for restricting the use of a vehicle operator's terminal
Systems and methods for restricting the use of vehicle operator's electronic device are provided. In a method a telematics server determines that a vehicle's engine is running, and that the operator registered with the vehicle is in the driver's seat. In response, the telematics server sends a message to the vehicle operator's terminal for changing the configuration thereof. A system including a telematics device, telematics server, and operator terminal may carry out the method. The system and method can be used to restrict the use of electronic devices by drivers sitting in a vehicle with the engine running in accordance with laws in certain jurisdictions.
BOOTS DAMAGE DETECTION APPARATUS AND METHOD
The present disclosure relates to a boots damage detection apparatus and a method. More specifically, the boots damage detection apparatus according to the present disclosure includes: a transmitter that transmits a command current for a movement to a first rack position or a second rack position; a receiver that receives a rack position to which a movement is performed in accordance with the command current and a rack force corresponding to the rack position from a plurality of sensors; and a determiner that determines damage/non-damage of boots based on a first rack force corresponding to the first rack position and a second rack force corresponding to the second rack position.
Control device, control method, and computer readable medium
A control device includes a specifying unit that specifies one of a plurality of detection objects on the basis of a state of an industrial vehicle when the plurality of detection objects are detected around the industrial vehicle, and a control unit that causes a notification to be performed for the one detection object specified by the specifying unit in an aspect different from those of other detected detection objects.
Vehicle control system
A vehicle control system installed on a vehicle includes: an automatic steering control device configured to execute automatic steering control that determines a steering angle command value and controls steering of the vehicle such that an actual steering angle follows the steering angle command value; a stop state detection device configured to detect a stop state where the vehicle is stopped; and an override detection device configured to detect an override operation by a driver of the vehicle. When the override operation is detected in the stop state, the automatic steering control device prohibits variation in the actual steering angle due to the automatic steering control, until the vehicle starts moving.
Control system for vehicle
A control system for a vehicle is provided, which includes an accelerator pedal and a steering wheel configured to be operated by a driver, an accelerator opening sensor configured to detect an accelerator opening corresponding to operation of the accelerator pedal, a steering angle sensor configured to detect a steering angle corresponding to operation of the steering wheel, and a controller configured to set an additional deceleration to be applied to the vehicle in order to control a posture of the vehicle based on the detected steering angle, when the steering wheel is turned, and apply the additional deceleration to the vehicle. The controller sets the additional deceleration based on the detected accelerator opening, in addition to the steering angle, and sets the additional deceleration larger while the vehicle is towing than while the vehicle is not towing, when the additional decelerations are compared at the same accelerator opening.
