Collision prevention control apparatus
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A collision prevention control apparatus, comprising:
- an image sensor that detects an object near a vehicle;
a radar sensor that detects the object near the vehicle; and
a controller that, when only a first one of the sensors, among the image sensor and the radar sensor, detects the object, determines a reliability of data obtained by a second one of the sensors, and changes, based on the determined reliability of the data obtained by the second one of the sensors, a performance of a collision prevention control for preventing a collision with the object detected by the first one of the sensors, whereinthe controller changes the performance of the collision prevention control such that a prevention capability by the collision prevention control is reduced as the determined reliability of the data obtained by the second one of the sensors increases.

Abstract
According to one aspect of the disclosure, a collision prevention control apparatus is provided which includes an image sensor that detects an object near the vehicle; a radar sensor that detects the object near the vehicle; and a controller that, if only one of the sensors, among the image sensor and the radar sensor, detects the object, determines reliability of the other sensor, and changes, based on the determined reliability, a way of performing a collision prevention control for preventing a collision with the object detected by the one of the sensors.
