Patent number: 10102761Abstract: A route prediction unit estimates a route of an object of interest with respect to a target object based on collision avoidance models. A collision risk estimation unit calculates collision risks between the object of interest and target object for each collision avoidance model. A collision deciding unit decides the presence or absence of a collision from the collision risks and feeds back a collision avoidance model correction value to the route prediction unit when it is determined that the collision occurs. A collision avoidance route selector selects any of the plurality of collision avoidance models in which the absence of collision is decided by the collision deciding unit, and selects a route of the collision avoidance model as a route for avoiding the collision between the objects. The route prediction unit performs a new route prediction using the collision avoidance model correction value.Type: GrantFiled: April 10, 2014Date of Patent: October 16, 2018Assignee: Mitsubishi Electric CorporationInventors: Yuki Takabayashi, Hiroshi Kameda
