Driving Assistance System and Driving Assistance Method for Assisting Lateral Guidance of a Vehicle - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18285874 titled 'Driving Assistance System and Driving Assistance Method for Assisting Lateral Guidance of a Vehicle
The present disclosure pertains to a driving assistance system designed to assist in the lateral guidance of a vehicle. The system comprises a steering assistance module that generates a desired steering adjustment, a detection module that identifies the actual steering adjustment, and a determination module that compares the desired and actual adjustments to determine the variance between them. Based on this variance, the steering assistance module adjusts the steering torque accordingly.
- The driving assistance system assists in the lateral guidance of a vehicle.
- The system includes modules for generating desired steering adjustments, detecting actual steering adjustments, and determining the variance between them.
- Based on the variance, the system adjusts the steering torque to improve the vehicle's lateral guidance.
Potential Applications: - Autonomous driving systems - Advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) - Vehicle safety technologies
Problems Solved: - Enhances the accuracy of steering adjustments - Improves overall vehicle control and stability
Benefits: - Increased safety on the road - Enhanced driving experience - Reduced risk of accidents
Commercial Applications: Title: Advanced Driving Assistance System for Enhanced Vehicle Control This technology can be utilized in the automotive industry for the development of advanced driver assistance systems, autonomous vehicles, and safety features in modern cars. The market implications include improved vehicle safety standards, enhanced driving experiences, and potential partnerships with automotive manufacturers.
Prior Art: There are existing patents related to driving assistance systems and steering control technologies, but this specific combination of modules and functions may offer a unique approach to enhancing lateral guidance in vehicles.
Frequently Updated Research: Research on sensor technologies, artificial intelligence algorithms, and vehicle-to-vehicle communication systems may impact the evolution of driving assistance systems like the one described in this patent application.
Questions about the Driving Assistance System: 1. How does the driving assistance system improve vehicle safety? The driving assistance system enhances vehicle safety by accurately adjusting steering torque based on the variance between desired and actual steering adjustments, thereby improving the vehicle's lateral guidance.
2. What are the potential commercial applications of this technology? The technology can be applied in autonomous driving systems, ADAS, and vehicle safety technologies, offering benefits such as increased safety on the road and enhanced driving experiences.
Original Abstract Submitted
The present disclosure relates to a driving assistance system for assisting lateral guidance of a vehicle. The driving assistance system includes a steering assistance module configured to output a desired steering adjustment; a detection module configured to detect an actual steering adjustment; and a determination module configured to relate the desired steering adjustment and the actual steering adjustment to one another in order to determine a degree of difference between the desired steering adjustment and the actual steering adjustment. The steering assistance module is further configured to adjust a steering torque based on the degree of difference between the desired steering adjustment and the actual steering.
