  • Patent number: 10793120
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are a vehicle and a control method thereof. The vehicle includes an obstacle detector for detecting an obstacle around the vehicle, and a controller configured to predict a chance of a collision with the obstacle on the side of a door if the obstacle detector detects the obstacle in front, and to perform partial braking control on the vehicle if the collision on the side of the door is predicted.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 20, 2018
    Date of Patent: October 6, 2020
    Assignees: HYUNDAI MOTOR COMPANY, KIA MOTORS CORPORATION
    Inventors: Wooyeol Jeong, Jungwan Park, Chiyoung An, Donghyuk Kim, Youngil Na
  • Patent number: 10730464
    Abstract: A vehicle may include a vehicle detector configured to detect an obstacle and a condition of the inside and the outside of the vehicle; and a controller, when a front obstacle is detected by the vehicle detector, configured to determine a required braking distance or a time to collision (TTC) with respect to the obstacle, configured to determine whether a door side collision with the obstacle is estimated, when a collision with the obstacle is estimated according to the result of the determination, and configured to open a door in emergency or convert the door into a manual opening mode when the door side collision is estimated.
