Device and Method for Controlling Vehicle - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240199008 titled 'Device and Method for Controlling Vehicle
The abstract describes a vehicle control device that uses sensors to gather information about the lane or guardrail the vehicle is traveling in or adjacent to. Based on this information, the device determines if the vehicle's travel direction aligns with the lane or guardrail and corrects it if necessary.
- The vehicle control device includes sensors, a controller, and memory.
- It acquires information about the lane or guardrail using the sensors.
- The device determines if the vehicle's travel direction matches the lane or guardrail.
- It corrects the travel direction if it does not align with the lane or guardrail.
Potential Applications: - Autonomous driving systems - Driver assistance technology - Vehicle safety systems
Problems Solved: - Improving vehicle navigation accuracy - Enhancing road safety - Preventing accidents due to incorrect travel directions
Benefits: - Increased safety on the road - Enhanced driving experience - Reduced risk of collisions
Commercial Applications: Title: Advanced Vehicle Control Systems for Enhanced Safety This technology can be used in autonomous vehicles, commercial fleets, and transportation companies to improve safety and efficiency on the road.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the device determine if the vehicle's travel direction aligns with the lane or guardrail?
- The device uses sensor data to analyze the vehicle's position relative to the lane or guardrail and makes a determination based on this information.
2. What are the potential implications of incorrect travel directions for a vehicle?
- Incorrect travel directions can lead to accidents, collisions, and unsafe driving conditions.
Original Abstract Submitted
disclosed is a vehicle control device including at least one sensor, a controller, and memory. the vehicle control device acquires, using the at least one sensor, information about at least one of: a lane in which the vehicle is traveling, or a guardrail adjacent to the vehicle, determines, based on the information, whether a travel direction of the vehicle corresponds to at least one of the lane or the guardrail, and corrects the travel direction of the vehicle based on a determination that the travel direction does not correspond to at least one of the lane or the guardrail.
