  • Patent number: 11702088
    Abstract: A driver assistance system of a vehicle includes a forward viewing camera, a forward sensing non-vision sensor, and an ECU having at least one data processor. The ECU, responsive to processing of image data captured by the camera and to processing of sensor data captured by the non-vision sensor, provides a driving assistance function for the vehicle. The ECU detects presence of objects forward of the vehicle via processing of captured image data and captured sensor data. The ECU determines an error in object detection by determining difference between object detection based on processing of captured image data and object detection based on processing of captured sensor data. The ECU disables at least part of the driving assist function at least in part responsive to the determined error in object detection being greater than a threshold error level.
