Abstract: A vehicle driving assist apparatus of the invention starts a collision avoidance steering assist control to automatically steer the vehicle to avoid a collision of the vehicle with the obstacle in response to a driver performing a collision avoidance steering operation for avoiding the collision when there is a possibility that the vehicle collides with the obstacle. The vehicle driving assist apparatus cancels the collision avoidance steering assist control in response to the driver performing a counter collision avoidance steering operation against automatically steering the vehicle intended to be achieved by the collision avoidance steering assist control after a first predetermined time elapses from starting the collision avoidance steering assist control.

Abstract: A photographing apparatus for vehicle includes a photographing apparatus, heating means, an outside air temperature detector, and a control device. The photographing apparatus is disposed inside a vehicle so as to face a window of the vehicle and is configured to receive photographing light passing through the window. The heating means is disposed inside the vehicle so as to face the window and generates heat when receiving electricity. The outside air temperature detector detects outside air temperature which is air temperature outside of the vehicle. The control device calculates an amount corresponding to a target value of electric energy to be supplied to the heating means for a predetermined period of time based on the outside air temperature detected by the outside air temperature detector and temperature of the photographing apparatus, the control device supplying electric energy corresponding to the target value to the heating means.

Abstract: A camera captures an image of objects outside a vehicle through a window of the vehicle. An image processing unit determines whether a captured image captured by the camera is clear or blurred. A controller activates a window heater to raise a temperature of a window area if the image processing unit determines that the captured image is blurred. If a blurred state of the captured image is not reduced by a time that a predetermined period of time elapses since the window heater is activated, the controller suspends activation of the window heater when the predetermined period of time elapses and prohibits subsequent activation of the window heater.
