Abstract
A driving support system detects a target area ahead of the vehicle, a position or a moving direction, etc. of an object such as a pedestrian or another vehicle by using a camera or radar, as well as determines a probability of collision between the own vehicle and the object based on the position, etc. of the object, and performs a driving support for avoiding the collision when the probability of the collision is high. Further, a sensitivity of determination is set high when the object remains in the target area, or when the object is moving towards the target area, while the sensitivity is set low when the object is not present in the target area, or the object is moving away from the target area.
