Vehicle control unit and vehicle control system having the same
First Claim
1. A vehicle control unit comprising:
- memory means that stores a first data that indicates a correlation between a movement and a condition of a user and an intention of the user;
user condition determination means that determines a movement and a condition of the user based on a result of movement and condition detection performed by user detection means;
intention determination means that determines an intention of the user based on the first data and the result of the movement and condition determination;
function control means that controls a plurality of functions installed in a vehicle; and
function selection means that selects at least one function from the plurality of functions based on the intention determined by the intention determination means, and outputs an instruction signal for controlling the selected function to the function control means.

Abstract
A vehicle control system has a detection section, a vehicle control unit, and a function section. The vehicle control unit has a memory section, a user condition determination section, a intention determination section, a function selection section, and a function control section. The user condition determination section determines movements and conditions of a user based on outputs of the detection section. The intention determination section determines intentions of the user based on results of the user condition determination performed by the user condition determination section and intention map data read from the memory section. The function selection section selects a function from a function section that includes multiple functions based on a result of the intention determination.
