VEHICLE CONTROL DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18526262 titled 'VEHICLE CONTROL DEVICE
Simplified Explanation
A vehicle control device can execute obstacle avoidance control and lane departure prevention control. The device sets a target trajectory to avoid obstacles and prevents the vehicle from departing from its lane.
- Obstacle avoidance control sets a target trajectory for avoiding obstacles in the vehicle's path.
- Lane departure prevention control keeps the vehicle in its lane to prevent accidents.
- The device can execute lane departure prevention control while obstacle avoidance control is active.
- After passing an obstacle, the device guides the vehicle back to the center of the lane steering.
Key Features and Innovation
- Ability to execute obstacle avoidance control and lane departure prevention control simultaneously.
- Ensures the vehicle stays on course and avoids collisions.
- Smooth transition back to the center of the lane after avoiding an obstacle.

Original Abstract Submitted
A vehicle control device is a device that can execute obstacle avoidance control and lane departure prevention control. The obstacle avoidance control sets a target trajectory for avoiding an obstacle that is present in the forward traveling direction of a host vehicle and controls the host vehicle so that the host vehicle travels along the target trajectory. The lane departure prevention control prevents the host vehicle from departing from a driving lane, in which the host vehicle is traveling, when the host vehicle is about to depart from the driving lane. When the lane departure prevention control is to be executed while the obstacle avoidance control is being executed to avoid the obstacle, the vehicle control device executes the lane departure prevention control to cause the host vehicle to move toward the center of the driving lane after the host vehicle passes the obstacle.
