Patent number: 11938927Abstract: Disclosed are a track mergence module and a method by which track deletion conditions are set to be varied depending on various situations and a track corresponding to the set track deletion conditions is deleted. The track mergence module includes a track deletion condition generation and storage unit, a phenomenon determination unit and a track mergence unit. A track to be deleted may be accurately deleted by generating the track deletion conditions so as to adaptively correspond to the performance of a sensor and various situations in which a host vehicle is placed, thereby being capable of erroneous braking of the autonomously driving host vehicle.Type: GrantFiled: October 28, 2021Date of Patent: March 26, 2024Assignees: HYUNDAI MOTOR COMPANY, KIA CORPORATIONInventor: Bo Young Yun
