Apparatus for controlling start-up of lane keeping assistance system and method of controlling the same
First Claim
1. An apparatus for activating a lane keeping assistance system (LKAS) which prevents a lane departure of a first vehicle, the apparatus comprising:
- a sensor and a processor coupled to the sensor, wherein the processor is configured with processor-executable instructions to perform operations comprising;
receiving a detection signal from the sensor;
detecting whether a second vehicle is traveling in a neighboring lane based on the received detection signal;
generating a dividing line interposed between the first vehicle and the second vehicle based on the detection of the second vehicle;
determining a weighting factor (α
) based on the dividing line; and
calculating a time to start-up the LKAS based on the weighting factor (α
).

Abstract
An apparatus for controlling start-up of a lane keeping assistance system (LKAS) which prevents lane departure of a first vehicle includes a detecting unit configured to detect a second vehicle which is traveling in a neighboring lane, a dividing line interposed between the first vehicle and the second vehicle, and a start-up controlling unit configured to determine a weighting factor based on a detection result of the detecting unit, change parameters which control a time point of the start-up of the LKAS based on the determined weighting factor, and control the time point of the start-up of the LKAS based on the changed parameters.

8. A method for activating a lane keeping assistance system (LKAS) configured to be applied to a first vehicle, the method comprising:
-
receiving, by a processor of an apparatus, a detection signal from a sensor of the apparatus; detecting, by the processor, whether a second vehicle is traveling in a neighboring lane based on the received detection signal; generating, by the processor, a dividing line interposed between the first vehicle and the second vehicle based on the detection of the second vehicle; determining a weighting factor (α
) based on the dividing line; andcalculating, by the processor, a time to start-up the LKAS based on the weighting factor (α
). - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12)
