  • Side collision risk estimation system for a vehicle
    Patent number: 11498556
    Abstract: A side collision risk estimation system for a vehicle comprises a speed sensor, a road line markers detector, a movement sensor, an object detector, and a controller. The controller is configured to estimate: the current speed of the vehicle, a heading of the adjacent road line ahead of the vehicle, a heading of the vehicle, a compensated heading of the vehicle, a predicted lateral change position of the vehicle, a heading of a target vehicle relative to the vehicle, the current speed of the target vehicle, the current lateral distance between the vehicles, the heading of the adjacent road line ahead of the target vehicle, a compensated relative heading of the target vehicle, a predicted lateral change position of the target vehicle, a predicted lateral distance over time between the vehicles, and a side collision risk over time from the predicted lateral distance between the vehicles.
