Patent number: 7289017Abstract: In a vehicular control object determination system, the position of an object detected by a radar device is stored by a detection position memory, and a predetermined area having the position of the object as the center is set as the determination region by a determination region setter. When the determination region set for one of two objects is passed through by the other object, the passing direction is determined by a passing direction determiner. During this process, the direction in which a fixed object or an object dropped on the road moves relative to a preceding vehicle is a direction in which the fixed object or the dropped object on the road approaches the subject vehicle with the preceding vehicle as a reference.Type: GrantFiled: October 20, 2005Date of Patent: October 30, 2007Assignee: Honda Motor Co., Ltd.Inventors: Kiichiro Sawamoto, Shigeru Inoue, Hiroshi Sato

Patent number: 7206686Abstract: When a deceleration intention detector detects that an occupant has apprehension about a condition ahead of his own vehicle and attempts to decelerate the own vehicle, a detection area setter enlarges a detection area in which a control object is detected, upon a command from a control object determinator. Therefore, a new control object such as a cutting-in vehicle can be more reliably detected in accordance with an increase in an amount of attention which the occupant pays to the condition ahead of the own vehicle. As a result, a vehicle controller changes a vehicle control content of the own vehicle, thereby performing an appropriate vehicle control with respect to the newly detected control object to eliminate a sense of discomfort of the occupant.Type: GrantFiled: October 27, 2004Date of Patent: April 17, 2007Assignee: Honda Motor Co., Ltd.Inventors: Kiichiro Sawamoto, Shigeru Inoue, Hiroshi Sato

Publication number: 20060229793Abstract: In a vehicular travel control system, when tracking control for a preceding vehicle is being carried out, if a driver intention detector detects a driver's intention to decelerate, a travel path width detector of an external conditions detector detects a decrease in the width of a subject vehicle travel path, and a cutting-in vehicle detector detects a cutting-in vehicle, a control target value corrector increases a set inter-vehicle distance for the tracking control. Thus, it becomes possible to carry out vehicle control that reflects the driver's wish to let a cutting-in vehicle cut in smoothly by increasing the inter-vehicle distance from the preceding vehicle. On the other hand, if the cutting-in vehicle detector does not detect a cutting-in vehicle, the set vehicle speed of the constant speed travel control is decreased, so that it becomes possible to carry out vehicle control that reflects the driver's wish to drive safely when the width of the road in front has decreased.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 23, 2006Publication date: October 12, 2006Inventors: Kiichiro Sawamoto, Shigeru Inoue

Publication number: 20060149462Abstract: In a vehicular control object determination system, locus correlation degree calculator calculates a degree of correlation between a future travel locus of a vehicle estimated by first travel locus estimator based on a vehicle speed and a yaw rate and a future travel locus of the vehicle estimated by second travel locus estimator based on a past travel locus of the vehicle calculated by travel locus calculator. When control object determiner determines a control object based on the travel locus estimated by the first travel locus estimator and predetermined control object determination conditions, the control object determination conditions are modified according to the degree of correlation, that is, the degree of reliability of the travel locus estimated by the first travel locus estimator, thereby achieving both accuracy with which the control object is determined and determination of the control object at a distance.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 16, 2005Publication date: July 6, 2006Inventors: Kiichiro Sawamoto, Shigeru Inoue, Hiroshi Sato
