TRAFFIC SAFETY SUPPORT SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
- This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18190077 Titled 'TRAFFIC SAFETY SUPPORT SYSTEM'
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a traffic safety support system that aims to improve traffic safety when a mobile body (such as a motorcycle) merges onto a road where a mobile vehicle (the host vehicle) is traveling. The system includes a recognizer, a human-machine interface (HMI), a risk notification setting unit, and a risk notification control device. The risk notification setting unit determines the appropriate notification mode based on the situation. In cases where a motorcycle is approaching the host vehicle and their travel paths intersect, a hinting notification mode is used. In cases where the motorcycle is within a certain range, an analogue notification mode is used.
Original Abstract Submitted
Provided is a traffic safety support system capable of improving traffic safety in a situation in which a mobile body has merged onto a road on which a mobile vehicle as a host vehicle is traveling and is approaching the host vehicle. A traffic safety support system includes a recognizer, a HMI, a risk notification setting unit, and a risk notification control device. The risk notification setting unit sets a notification mode to a hinting notification mode in a case where a motorcycle acts as an oncoming vehicle and a first travel path of a four-wheeled automobile and a second travel path of the motorcycle join, and sets the notification mode to an analogue notification mode in a case where the motorcycle is present within an analogue notification actuation range.
