  • Publication number: 20180339704
    Abstract: A method for preparing emergency braking of a vehicle including receiving information regarding a traveling route of the vehicle or a road and nearby information, by a controller; checking, based on the received information, whether a current traveling section is a section in which predetermined deceleration information exists; setting a braking pressure to a predetermined level 1 (LV1) preparation state, in the case where a current traveling section is a section in which predetermined deceleration information exists; detecting at least one pedestrian-related information around the road by processing an image photographed using a camera, by the controller; and calculating a risk of collision with a pedestrian in a predetermined scheme by the controller when the pedestrian-related information is checked, and setting a braking pressure to a predetermined level 2 (LV2) preparation state in the case where the risk of collision is greater than a preset reference.

  • Patent number: 9604574
    Abstract: A system for estimating a driving lane of a vehicle includes a road surface marking recognizing unit configured to recognize a road surface marking of a lane in which the vehicle is driving, a lane change determining unit configured to calculate a variation in a distance between the vehicle and the recognized road surface marking at a pre-set time interval, and compare the calculated variation with a preset value to generate lane change information. The system also includes a driving lane estimating unit configured to estimate the driving lane of the vehicle on the basis of information of the lane in which the vehicle is driving and the lane change information.
