  • Patent number: 11763681
    Abstract: The present invention proposes an ECU and a lane departure warning system capable of improving safety of all traveling vehicles including a host vehicle by using an environment sensor to warn another vehicle about departure of the other vehicle from a lane. An ECU (13) detects the departure from the lane. The ECU (13) determines whether another vehicle (100) leaves the lane on the basis of a detection signal from an environment sensor (11), and visually or aurally warns the other vehicle (100) in the case where the other vehicle (100) leaves the lane.

  • Publication number: 20220229153
    Abstract: The present invention provides an abnormality diagnosis system capable of improving reliability of a diagnosis result on a state of a detector mounted to a vehicle. An abnormality diagnosis system (50) that diagnoses abnormality of a detector (20) detecting surrounding information on the vehicle includes: a positioning device (59); a storage device (55) that stores map data (70) containing data on an object existing on/above the ground; and a control section (51) that diagnoses presence or absence of the abnormality of the detector (20) by comparing the map data (70) with detection data obtained by the detector (20).

  • Patent number: 9393959
    Abstract: A method for operating a control system for dynamics control of a vehicle, in particular a motor vehicle, which includes: detecting an object with the aid of at least one surroundings detection device which detects a detection area in the vehicle surroundings, determining the probability of an interaction, between the vehicle and the object, to cause damage to the vehicle or its occupants, and changing the intensity of a control intervention by the vehicle dynamics control system as a function of the previously determined probability of an interaction between the vehicle and the object in at least one operating mode of the control system, the vehicle dynamics control system being a vehicle dynamics control system for preventing a lateral breakaway of the vehicle. Also described is a corresponding control unit and control system.
