A vehicle driving assistance apparatus includes a sensing unit for sensing an object outside the vehicle and a processor for obtaining surrounding situation information, based on a location of the object outside the vehicle. The processor is further configured to determine whether the object approaches the vehicle from a traveling lane or a lateral lane, based on the determination of whether the object approaches the vehicle from a traveling lane or a lateral lane, to generate a control signal, and to provide the control signal to a vehicle control system of the vehicle. The generated control signal can control at least one of a drive apparatus of the vehicle, a steering apparatus of the vehicle, or a brake apparatus of the vehicle to either avoid collision between the vehicle and the object or to perform an action that reduces an impulse on the vehicle from the collision.

Driving assistance apparatus for vehicle

The present invention relates to a vehicle driving assistance method comprising the steps of: selecting a driver type; detecting the driver's condition; and controlling, in phases, at least one vehicle driving assistance function or selectively controlling a plurality of vehicle driving assistance functions, according to the selected driver type and the detected driver's condition.

Vehicle driving assistance method and vehicle

A vehicle driving assistance apparatus includes a sensing unit configured to sense an object outside a vehicle, and a processor. The processor is configured to obtain surrounding situation information, determine whether the object approaches the vehicle from a traveling lane or a lateral lane based on a location of the object outside the vehicle, and generate a control signal to control at least one of a drive apparatus of the vehicle, a steering apparatus of the vehicle, or a brake apparatus of the vehicle. The vehicle driving assistance apparatus enables the vehicle (i) to avoid collision between the vehicle and the object or (ii) to perform an action that reduces an impulse on the vehicle from the collision, and provide the control signal to a vehicle control system of the vehicle.

Disclosed are systems and techniques for automated driver assistance in a vehicle having an Idle Stop and Go (ISG) function that controls an engine of the vehicle. A driver assistance apparatus includes at least one object detection sensor configured to acquire an image of a view ahead of the vehicle or a view around the vehicle, and a processor configured to detect information from the acquired image. The processor determines navigation information related to the vehicle, and provides a control signal to enable or disable the ISG function based on at least one of the information detected from the acquired image or the navigation information.

Driver assistance for a vehicle

An air circulation control device that includes a camera configured to capture an outside image of the vehicle; and a processor configured to: identify an object from the outside image, determine that an air circulation mode is a first air circulation mode or a second air circulation mode based on the identified object, and provide a signal including information indicating the air circulation mode is disclosed.

Air circulation control device for vehicle

A driver assistance apparatus for a vehicle may be provided with Idle Stop and Go (ISG), and the driver assistance apparatus may include: an interface configured to receive information; and a processor. The processor may be configured to: receive, through the interface, driving information of the vehicle; and based on a determination that the vehicle is stopped in a first state in which the ISG is enabled or that the vehicle is stopped in a second state in which a gearshift of the vehicle is engaged in a Park (P) mode and an engine of the vehicle is turned on, perform a stopping operation for the vehicle based on the driving information of the vehicle.

Driver assistance apparatus and control method thereof

A driver assistance apparatus for a vehicle includes an object detection sensor that acquires data in a driving direction of the vehicle or around the vehicle. The driver assistance apparatus also includes a processor that detects, based on the acquired data, an object and determines, based on the acquired data, at least one attribute of the detected object. The processor detects that the vehicle has collided with the object and determines, based on detecting that the object has collided with the vehicle and based on the at least one attribute of the object, whether to perform a hood lift-up or pedestrian protection airbag deployment. The processor further provides a control signal for the hood lift-up or the pedestrian protection airbag deployment based on determining whether to perform the hood lift-up or the pedestrian protection airbag deployment.

Driver assistance apparatus for vehicle and vehicle

A driver assistance apparatus includes an interface configured to receive first navigation information generated based on GPS information of the vehicle, a camera configured to acquire an image of a view ahead of the vehicle, and a processor. The processor is configured to detect an object in the acquired image of the view ahead of the vehicle, determine, based on the detected object, a driving situation of the vehicle, and determine whether the driving situation of the vehicle is consistent with the first navigation information. Based on a determination that the driving situation of the vehicle is not consistent with the first navigation information, the process generates, based on the driving situation of the vehicle, second navigation information of the vehicle, and provides the second navigation information to an output unit.

Advanced driver assistance apparatus, display apparatus for vehicle and vehicle

A steering input apparatus for a vehicle includes a grip position sensor configured to sense a grip position on a rim of a steering wheel of the vehicle. The steering input apparatus also includes at least one processor configured to, based on a determination that the grip position on the rim of the steering wheel sensed through the grip position sensor is improper for a driving situation of the vehicle, perform a control operation to output grip guide information for the rim of the steering wheel.
