SYSTEM AND METHOD OF CONTROLLING VEHICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18078045 titled 'SYSTEM AND METHOD OF CONTROLLING VEHICLE

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a system for controlling a vehicle based on sensed vehicle operation state information. The system includes a sensor to gather information about the vehicle's operation state and a controller to analyze this data and make decisions regarding the vehicle's operation.

  • The sensor is configured to sense vehicle operation state information.
  • The controller determines if the vehicle is running on a dangerous road based on the sensed information.
  • If the vehicle is on a dangerous road, the controller assesses the possibility of a driving system failure.
  • The controller may decide to implement torque control of the vehicle based on its analysis.

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in autonomous vehicles, advanced driver assistance systems, and vehicle safety systems.

Problems Solved

This system helps prevent accidents on dangerous roads and reduces the risk of driving system failures.

Benefits

The system enhances vehicle safety, improves driving performance, and increases overall road safety.

Potential Commercial Applications

Potential commercial applications include automotive manufacturers, technology companies developing autonomous vehicles, and companies specializing in vehicle safety systems.

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art could be existing vehicle safety systems that use sensors to monitor driving conditions and make adjustments to improve safety.

Unanswered Questions

How does the system differentiate between various types of dangerous roads?

The patent application does not specify how the system determines the level of danger on different types of roads.

What is the impact of torque control on vehicle performance and fuel efficiency?

The patent application does not address the potential effects of torque control on vehicle performance and fuel efficiency.


Original Abstract Submitted

A system of controlling a vehicle may include a sensor and a controller, in which the sensor may be configured to sense vehicle operation state information, and the controller may be configured to determine whether a vehicle is running on a dangerous road based on the sensed vehicle operation state information, determine whether there is a possibility that a vehicle driving state will cause a failure of a driving system based on the sensed vehicle operation state information in response to determining that the vehicle is running on the dangerous road, and decide that torque control of the vehicle.
