  • Patent number: 9965955
    Abstract: To improve traveling safety of a vehicle by continuing an alarm after the end of a crash prevention control for preventing a crash between an own vehicle and a target object, a drive support apparatus of the invention detects the target object which exists in a predetermined detection area ahead of the own vehicle, starts to issue an alarm with an alarm generating part to a driver of the own vehicle if probability of a crash between the own vehicle and the target object is greater than a predetermined value, start a crash prevention control in which an automatic driving operation is performed for preventing the crash with the target object, and continues to issue the alarm until a predetermined timing (timing when the driver of the own vehicle performs a predetermined driving operation, for example) after the crash prevention control by the crash prevention controlling part has been ended.

  • Patent number: 9487195
    Abstract: A collision avoidance assistance device includes an assistance execution unit configured to execute collision avoidance assistance in a case where it is determined that a vehicle will collide with an object, in which, when it is not determined whether the vehicle will collide with the object or not during execution of the automatic braking based on the collision avoidance assistance, the assistance execution unit is configured to inhibit cancellation of the automatic braking in a case where the object is present in front of the vehicle.

  • Publication number: 20150371542
    Abstract: A warning device includes a distance acquisition unit that acquires a lane width direction distance between two lane boundary lines of a driving lane and a vehicle; a speed acquisition unit that acquires a lane width direction speed of the vehicle toward the lane boundary lines; a safety threshold setting unit that sets a safety threshold for allowing that the lower the lane width direction speed is toward the lane boundary lines, the smaller the lane width direction distance is; and a warning unit that warns a driver of the vehicle when the lane width direction distance is smaller than the safety threshold, wherein the safety threshold setting unit sets the safety threshold based on a history of the lane width direction distance and the lane width direction speed for a traveling environment of the vehicle.
