  • Patent number: 10062221
    Abstract: A system is configured to produce an alarm when wheel misalignment of a vehicle occurs. The system includes: a navigation device; a lane change detector configured to detect lane change frequency information of the vehicle; a driving information detector configured to detect vehicle speed information and brake frequency information; a steering wheel rotation angle detector configured to detect a rotation angle of a steering wheel; and a controller deriving a criterion based on the rotation angle, for determining whether or not the vehicle travels straight by receiving from the navigation device, the lane change detector, the driving information detector, and the steering wheel rotation angle detector, information necessary to determine whether or not the vehicle travels straight, the controller transmitting an alarm signal to a driver when a current rotation angle of the steering wheel detected by the steering wheel rotation angle detector fails to satisfy the criterion.

  • Publication number: 20140180541
    Abstract: A steering device having a tilting function and a telescopic function that includes a steering handle that is manipulated by a driver to adjust a running direction of a vehicle. A sensing unit is formed in one region of the steering handle and is configured to sense a contact of an object or contact pressure applied thereto. A tilting device and a telescope device are configured to tilt the steering handle or adjust a length of a steering column In addition, a controller is configured to adjust a tilting angle of the steering handle and a length of the steering column by operating the tilting device and the telescope device based on a direction in which a contacted portion moves or a direction in which contact pressure is applied, which is sensed by the sensing unit.

  • Patent number: 8711003
    Abstract: The disclosed system includes a first unit including at least one sensor. The first unit senses driving situations (characteristics) of a vehicle through the at least one sensor. Furthermore a second unit is configured to receive location-based information about the vehicle, and a control unit which includes an operation statistic unit calculates an acceptable range to be output by the first unit on a particular type of road based on the information detected by the sensing unit and the information received by the location second unit. The control unit also includes an abnormal driving determination unit which compares values sensed by the first unit with values calculated by the operation statistic unit to determine whether or not the vehicle is being driven in an abnormal state.
