Apparatus And Method For Lane Following Assist - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18387572 titled 'Apparatus And Method For Lane Following Assist

The apparatus for lane following assist involves setting a reference position based on the driver's tendency, determining if the vehicle deviates from this position, and assisting steering to keep the vehicle in the lane.

  • Reference position setting unit establishes a new reference position for lane keeping assist.
  • Deviation determining unit checks if the vehicle deviates from the reference position.
  • Offset following control unit helps steer the vehicle to follow the lane along the reference position.

Potential Applications: - Autonomous driving systems - Advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) - Vehicle safety technologies

Problems Solved: - Improving lane-keeping accuracy - Enhancing driver assistance features - Increasing road safety

Benefits: - Reduced risk of lane departure accidents - Enhanced driving comfort and convenience - Improved overall vehicle safety

Commercial Applications: Title: Advanced Lane Following Assist Technology for Safer Driving This technology can be utilized in the automotive industry for the development of advanced driver assistance systems, enhancing vehicle safety features, and improving overall driving experience.

Questions about Lane Following Assist Technology: 1. How does the apparatus for lane following assist determine the reference position? The reference position is determined based on the driver's tendency to deviate to one side within a predetermined range from the center of the lane.

2. What is the role of the deviation determining unit in the lane following assist system? The deviation determining unit checks whether the vehicle deviates from the reference position set by the driver's driving tendency.


Original Abstract Submitted

The apparatus for lane following assist includes a reference position setting unit configured to set a reference position which is determined to be deviated to one side within a predetermined range from a center of a lane based on a driving tendency of a driver as a new reference position for the lane keeping assist, a deviation determining unit configured to determine whether the vehicle deviates from the reference position, and an offset following control unit configured to assist steering of the vehicle such that the vehicle follows the lane along the reference position.
