  • Patent number: 11345339
    Abstract: A vehicle driving assistance apparatus includes a sensing unit for sensing an object outside the vehicle and a processor for obtaining surrounding situation information, based on a location of the object outside the vehicle. The processor is further configured to determine whether the object approaches the vehicle from a traveling lane or a lateral lane, based on the determination of whether the object approaches the vehicle from a traveling lane or a lateral lane, to generate a control signal, and to provide the control signal to a vehicle control system of the vehicle. The generated control signal can control at least one of a drive apparatus of the vehicle, a steering apparatus of the vehicle, or a brake apparatus of the vehicle to either avoid collision between the vehicle and the object or to perform an action that reduces an impulse on the vehicle from the collision.
