1. A system for detecting an angle of inclination of a vehicle, comprising:
- first detecting means for continuously detecting an angle of inclination of the vehicle with respect to a direction of the force of gravity;
second detecting means for continuously detecting an amount of change in angle of inclination of the vehicle by integrating angular speed of the vehicle; and
an adding means for adding a first output from said first detecting means and a second output from said second detecting means to calculate an angle of inclination of the vehicle.

Abstract
A system for detecting an angle of inclination of a vehicle, comprises: a first detecting mechanism which continuously detects an angle of inclination of the vehicle with respect to a direction of the force of gravity; a second detecting mechanism which continuously detects an amount of change in angle of inclination of the vehicle by integrating a sensed angular speed of the vehicle; and a calculator which calculates an angle of inclination of the vehicle based on the sum of a first output from said first detecting mechanism and a second output from said second detecting mechanism.
