Abstract
A lane centering system for use in a vehicle driving in a lane on a road includes a camera and a controller. Based on processing by a processor of image data captured by the camera, the controller determines position of a left lane delimiter on the road on a left side of the vehicle and position of a right lane delimiter on the road on a right side of the vehicle. The controller is operable to determine a target path for the vehicle based on processing of image data captured by the camera. The determined target path maintains the longitudinal centerline of the vehicle centered between the left lane delimiter and the right lane delimiter. The lane centering system may be enabled responsive to the vehicle speed exceeding a threshold speed, and may be disabled during a braking event of a collision mitigation system of the vehicle.
