First Claim
1. A driving support device for a host vehicle, the device comprising:
- a sensor that receives braking information from another vehicle traveling in front of the host vehicle; and
a controller that;
obtains current speed information of the host vehicle;
obtains inter-vehicle distance information indicating a distance between the other vehicle and the host vehicle;
generates host vehicle braking information based on the other vehicle braking information, the vehicle speed information, and the inter-vehicle distance information, the host vehicle braking information recommending a braking operation for the host vehicle; and
controls the host vehicle based on the host vehicle braking information.

Abstract
Driving support systems, methods, and programs for a host vehicle receive braking information from another vehicle traveling in front of the host vehicle. The systems, methods, and programs obtain current speed information of the host vehicle and obtain inter-vehicle distance information indicating a distance between the other vehicle and the host vehicle. The systems, methods, and programs generate host vehicle braking information based on the other vehicle braking information, the vehicle speed information, and the inter-vehicle distance information, the host vehicle braking information recommending a braking operation for the host vehicle. Based on the host vehicle braking information, the systems, methods, and programs control the host vehicle.
