AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE DRIVING SUPPORT SYSTEM AND AUTONOMOUS DRIVING METHOD PERFORMED BY THE SAME
First Claim
1. An autonomous vehicle driving support system mounted in a vehicle, comprising:
- a dangerous driving state determination device detecting a distance and an orientation between the vehicle and an external obstacle, providing a predicted collision value according to the distance and the orientation between the vehicle and the external obstacle, comparing the predicted collision value with a reference value to determine a collision possibility of colliding with the external obstacle, and determining behavioral competence and a risk level of a driver of the vehicle according to a driving condition of the driver; and
a driving assistance device electrically connected to the dangerous driving state determination device and having a controller selecting a control function according to the collision possibility and the behavioral competence and the risk level of the driver to control the vehicle.

Abstract
An autonomous vehicle driving support system is mounted on a vehicle, is electrically connected to an electronic control unit (ECU) of the vehicle, and has a dangerous driving state determination device and a driving assistance device. The dangerous driving state determination device detects a driving condition of the driver and a collision possibility of the vehicle. The driving assistance device provides suitable driving assistance functions to control the vehicle through the ECU. Given the driving condition of the driver and the collision possibility, corresponding driving assistance function is provided to control the vehicle. Accordingly, the cost arising from an expensive detection system required for enhanced driving assistances to drivers and passengers can be reduced.
