Abstract: Disclosed are a vehicle and a control method thereof, and more particularly, a technique for acquiring location information of a pedestrian near a vehicle, predicting a movement path of the pedestrian, and outputting warning sounds in a direction toward where the pedestrian is moving. The vehicle includes an imaging device configured to capture an image of a pedestrian near the vehicle, a detection sensor configured to acquire location information of the pedestrian, a controller configured to predict a movement route of the pedestrian based on the acquired location information of the pedestrian and generate a control signal for outputting warning sounds in a direction toward where the pedestrian is moving based on the predicted movement route of the pedestrian; and a speaker array configured to output the warning sounds in the direction toward where the pedestrian is moving based on the generated control signal.

Abstract: Disclosed are a vehicle and a control method thereof, and more particularly, a technique for imaging a pedestrian near a vehicle, acquiring location information of the pedestrian in real time, and outputting warning sounds in a direction in which the pedestrian is located on the basis of the acquired location information of the pedestrian. The vehicle includes an imaging device configured to capture an image of a pedestrian and acquire location information of the pedestrian, a controller configured to generate a control signal for outputting warning sounds in a direction in which the pedestrian is located based on the acquired location information of the pedestrian when the pedestrian is located within a predetermined distance from the vehicle, and a speaker array configured to output the warning sounds in the direction in which the pedestrian is located based on the generated control signal.

Abstract: A pedestrian warning system for an eco-friendly vehicle may include a warning sound controller including an alarm sound controller and a virtual engine sound system configured to inform a pedestrian of a behavior of the vehicle; and an alarm sound output device including not only an amplifier for amplifying a pedestrian alarm sound and a virtual engine sound, but also a directional speaker for outputting the amplified pedestrian alarm sound and the amplified virtual engine sound.

Abstract: The present invention provides a neutral-position parking apparatus and method in a shift-by-wire system. The neutral-position parking apparatus connects a shift-by-wire unit to a smart key control ECU through a controller area network (CAN) communication to perform a control of maintaining a neutral position according to a control command of the smart key control ECU receiving a door lock signal from a smart key. Also, the neutral-position parking apparatus communicably connects a power distributor to the smart key control ECU to power off a vehicle upon neutral-position parking according to the control command of the smart key control ECU receiving the door lock signal from the smart key.
