VEHICLE DRIVING ASSIST SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A vehicle driving assist system comprising:
- a risk factor detection section configured to detect a plurality of potential risk factors related to a host vehicle;
a first risk potential calculation section configured to calculate a first risk potential attributed to a first risk factor from the risk factors that are detected;
a second risk potential calculation section configured to calculate a second risk potential attributed to a second risk factor that is different than the first risk factor from the risk factors that are detected; and
a risk potential notification section configured to notifying a driver of the first risk potential calculated by the first risk potential calculation section with a first risk potential notification and the second risk potential calculated by the second risk potential calculation section with a second risk potential notification using a common risk notification device for both the first and second notifications with the first and second notifications being different.

Abstract
A vehicle driving assist system is provided with a risk factor detection section, a first risk potential calculation section, a second risk potential calculation section and a risk potential notification section. The risk factor detection section detects a plurality of potential risk factors related to a host vehicle. The first risk potential calculation section calculates a first risk potential attributed to a first risk factor from the risk factors that were detected. The second risk potential calculation section calculates a second risk potential attributed to a second risk factor that is different than the first risk factor from the risk factors that were detected. The risk potential notification section notifies a driver of the first risk potential with a first risk potential notification and the second risk potential with a second risk potential notification using a common risk notification device with the first and second notifications being different.

19. A vehicle driving assist system comprising:
-
means for detecting a plurality of potential risk factors related to a host vehicle; means for calculating a first risk potential attributed to a first risk factor from the risk factors that were detected; means for calculating a second risk potential attributed to a second risk factor that is different than the first risk factor from the risk factors that were detected; and means for notifying a driver of the first risk potential with a first risk potential notification and the second risk potential with a second risk potential notification using a common risk notification means for both the first and second notifications with the first and second notifications being different.

20. A vehicle driving assistance method comprising:
-
detecting a plurality of potential risk factors related to a host vehicle; calculating a first risk potential attributed to a first risk factor from the risk factors that were detected; calculating a second risk potential attributed to a second risk factor that is different than the first risk factor from the risk factors that were detected; and selectively notifying a driver of the first risk potential with a first risk potential notification and the second risk potential with a second risk potential notification using a common risk notification device for both the first and second notifications with the first and second notifications being different.
