VEHICLE AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF
First Claim
1. A vehicle configured to share a captured image with another vehicle, the vehicle comprising:
- a first camera unit configured to capture the image;
a first display unit configured to display the image;
a speed sensor unit configured to sense a speed of the vehicle;
a distance sensor unit configured to sense a vehicle-to-vehicle distance between the vehicle and a first vehicle immediately ahead of the vehicle;
a communication unit configured to implement data communication between the vehicle and the first vehicle; and
a processor configured to control the first camera unit, the first display unit, the distance sensor unit, the speed sensor unit and the communication unit,wherein the processor is further configured to;
determine a state of the vehicle based on the speed of the vehicle and the vehicle-to-vehicle distance,display a first image captured by the first camera unit on the first display unit when the vehicle is in a first state,wherein the first state is a state in which the speed of the vehicle is equal to or greater than a first speed and less than a second speed, and the vehicle-to-vehicle distance is equal to or greater than a first distance and less than a second distance,display a second image captured by a second camera unit on the first display unit when the vehicle is in a second state,wherein the second state is a state in which the speed of the vehicle is equal to or greater than the second speed, and the vehicle-to-vehicle distance is equal to or greater than the second distance, andwherein the second camera unit is a camera unit installed in a second vehicle, the second vehicle being any one of one or more vehicles ahead of the vehicle.

Abstract
Disclosed is a vehicle, which senses a speed of the vehicle using a speed sensor unit and also senses a vehicle-to-vehicle distance between the vehicle and a first vehicle immediately ahead of the vehicle using a distance sensor unit and then determines a state of the vehicle based on the speed of the vehicle and the vehicle-to-vehicle distance. In this case, when the vehicle is in a first state, the vehicle displays a first image captured by a first camera unit on a first display unit. In addition, when the vehicle is in a second state, the vehicle displays a second image captured by a second camera unit on the first display unit. Here, the second camera unit is a camera unit stalled in a second vehicle, and the second vehicle being any one of one or more vehicles ahead of the vehicle.
