Abstract: A vehicle control device comprises a unit to detect a distance to an obstacle; a unit to detect a speed of the vehicle; and a reduction support unit to, based on the speed and the distance, perform support for reduction of a speed of the vehicle. The reduction support unit changes the distance at which the reduction support is to be performed between a case where driving during parking and a case where not driving during parking. The distance at which the reduction support is to be performed is, for a first speed range, longer in a case where driving during parking than in a case where not driving during parking, and, for a second speed range, longer in a case where not driving during parking than in a case where driving during parking.

Abstract: A vehicle control apparatus having an unintended start suppression function of suppressing an unintended start is provided. The apparatus comprises a distance detection unit configured to detect a distance to an obstacle; a speed detection unit configured to detect a speed of an ego-vehicle; and a suppression support unit configured to perform suppression support for the speed of the ego-vehicle based on the speed and the distance to the obstacle, wherein the suppression support unit changes an operation distance for performing the suppression support depending on whether the unintended start suppression function has operated.

Abstract: An apparatus for estimating a travel path of a vehicle is mounted on the vehicle; and includes: an object detection device that detects an object lying ahead of the vehicle; a stationary object detection device that determines whether a detected object is a stationary object; a device that calculates an approximate straight line indicating a path of the stationary object from the temporal positional data for the stationary object projected on two-dimensional coordinates using a vehicle position as a starting point; a device that calculates a orthogonal line which passes through a midpoint in the temporal positional data for the stationary object and goes straight with respect to the approximate straight line on the two-dimensional coordinates; and a device that calculates a vehicle turning radius from an intersection point where the orthogonal line intersects with a x axis.
