Title:
SAFE VEHICLE DRIVING FACILITATING SYSTEM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/111750
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A distance sensor detects a target distance from a vehicle to a target in the forward direction of the vehicle, and a vehicle speed sensor detects the speed of the vehicle. A controller calculates a stopping distance of the vehicle from the vehicle speed. The controller also calculates a collision possibility index from the target distance and the stopping distance, and calculates the kinetic energy of the vehicle just before a collision with the target is to occur, from the vehicle speed and the target distance. The controller presents, to the driver, information pertaining to safety driving with a strong appeal to the driver, by warning the vehicle driver of the possibility of a collision, and the scale of damages to be incurred upon the collision, on the basis of the collision possibility index and the kinetic energy of the vehicle just before the collision.
