Abstract
A vehicle power controller includes a processor capable of switching a power source of a vehicle based on whether a user rides in the vehicle, or whether a brake input occurs. The processor determines whether the user rides in the vehicle based on whether a smart key is authenticated in an interior of the vehicle, whether a door of the vehicle is opened or closed, or whether the user is seated in a seat.
