  • Patent number: 11370489
    Abstract: A vehicle includes: a sensor configured to detect an obstacle of a front side of the vehicle to obtain at least one of position information or speed information of the obstacle; a lane detector configured to detect a lane on which the vehicle is located; and a controller configured to calculate a first lateral movement distance for the vehicle to avoid an obstacle through steering, to determine a steering-based avoidance path for the obstacle based on the first lateral movement distance, to determine whether to depart the lane on the steering-based avoidance path, and to control the vehicle to perform steering avoidance control when the vehicle does not depart the lane.

  • Publication number: 20220073064
    Abstract: A vehicle includes: a detection sensor configured to acquire a front view of the vehicle, and configured to detect an obstacle in the front view; and a controller including at least one processor which is configured to process data obtained from the detection sensor. The controller may be configured to determine a predicted position of a collision between the vehicle and the obstacle, determine an avoidance position capable of avoiding a collision with the obstacle based on the collision prediction position, generate a plurality of avoidance paths corresponding to a plurality of predetermined conditions, respectively, based on the avoidance position, and control a steering angle adjustment unit to follow any one of the plurality of avoidance paths.

  • Patent number: 11195417
    Abstract: A vehicle includes: a capturer configured to detect at least one stopped vehicle stopped in a first lane crossing at a right side of a second lane in which the vehicle is located; a detection sensor configured to detect the target vehicle located in a third lane next to the at least one stopped vehicle to obtain position information and speed information of the target vehicle; and a controller configured to determine a first position of the vehicle for sensing the target vehicle between stopped vehicles, determine an expected position to move the target vehicle for a time it takes for the vehicle to move from the first position to a second position, determine a reliability of a possibility of collision between the vehicle and the target vehicle by comparing an actual position and the expected position of the target vehicle.

  • Publication number: 20210074161
    Abstract: A vehicle for preventing a secondary collision during a steering avoidance control, may include a plurality of detection sensors configured to detect a neighboring obstacle in a surrounding of a vehicle, a lane line detector configured to detect a lane line of a travelling lane on which the vehicle is travelling, and a controller configured to determine whether the vehicle departs from the travelling lane on the basis of the detected lane line, determine whether an obstacle is detected in a predetermined area in the travelling lane, determine a risk of collision between the vehicle and the neighboring obstacle, and if the vehicle is predicted to depart from the travelling lane and the vehicle is predicted to collide with the neighboring obstacle, determine whether to perform a steering avoidance control for avoiding the collision on the basis of a result of detecting the obstacle in the predetermined area.
