Abstract: Provided is a vehicle stop support system for supporting vehicle stop in an emergency condition. The vehicle stop support system sets a target time period based on physical abnormality of a driver; sets an allowable lateral acceleration, based on the abnormality; estimates a time period required to reach each of a plurality of stop point candidates; estimates a lateral acceleration to be generated during traveling of a vehicle to each of the candidates; sets a stop point; and controls the vehicle to travel to the stop point and stop at the stop point. The system is operable to set, as the stop point, one of the candidates which satisfies a condition that the lateral acceleration estimated with respect thereto is equal to or less than the allowable lateral acceleration, and the required time period estimated with respect thereto is equal to or less than the target time period.

Abstract: Provided is a vehicle stop support system for supporting vehicle stop in an emergency condition. The vehicle stop support system detects a physical abnormality of a driver; sets a stop point; and controls a vehicle to travel to the stop point and stop at the stop point. The system is operable to: calculate, with respect to each of a plurality of stop point candidates, a first index value which increases with an increase in a lateral acceleration, a second index value which increases with an increase in rear-end collision risk, a third index value based on the detected abnormality, and a gross index value, wherein the gross index value is obtained by subjecting the first, second, and third index values to weighting, and summing the resulting weighted index values; and then set one of candidates which is smallest in terms of the gross index value, as the stop point.

Abstract: Provided is a vehicle stop support system for supporting vehicle stop in an emergency condition. The vehicle stop support system detects a physical abnormality of a driver; sets a target time period based on the detected abnormality; detects a plurality of stop point candidates in a traveling direction of a vehicle; estimates a time period required to reach each of the candidates; a estimates a rear-end collision risk which is a risk that, when assuming that the vehicle stops at each of the candidates, the vehicle will be rear-ended by a following vehicle; and a sets a stop point, wherein the system is operable to set, as the stop point, one of the candidates which satisfies a condition that the required time period estimated with respect thereto is equal to or less than the target time period and which is lowest in terms of the rear-end collision risk.

Abstract: Provided is a vehicle stop support system for supporting vehicle stop in an emergency condition. The vehicle stop support system detects a physical abnormality of a driver; detects a plurality of stop point candidates in a traveling direction of the vehicle; estimates a time period required to reach each of the candidates; estimates a waiting time period which is a time period from a time when the vehicle reaches each of the stop point candidates through until a rescue operation for the driver is started; sets a stop point; and controls the vehicle to travel to the stop point and stop at the stop point. The vehicle stop support system sets, as the stop point, one of the plurality of stop point candidates which is smallest in terms of a sum of the required time period and the waiting time period.

The vehicle stop support system detects a physical abnormality of a driver; sets a target time period based on the detected abnormality; detects a plurality of stop point candidates which exist in a traveling direction of a vehicle; estimates a time period required to reach each of the stop point candidates; and sets a stop point, wherein the system is operable to set the stop point from one or more of the plurality of stop point candidates each satisfying a condition that the required time estimated with respect thereto is equal to or less than the target time period.
