Abstract

A vehicle (3) driver assist arrangement (1) is provided. The arrangement (1) comprises processing means (5), road profile input means (7), current vehicle velocity input means (9), and a user interface (11). The processing means (5) is arranged to communicate with the road profile input means (7), the current vehicle velocity input means (9) and the user interface (11). The processing means (5) further being arranged to receive road profile data representative of a road profile in front of the vehicle (3) from the road profile input means (7), and to receive current vehicle velocity data representative of a current vehicle velocity of the vehicle (3) from the current vehicle velocity input means (9). The processing means (5) are still further adapted to process the road profile data to detect if the road (13) in front of the vehicle (3) contains a hidden or at least partially hidden curve (15). The arrangement (1) is adapted to issue a warning, via the user interface (11), if a hidden or at least partially hidden curve (15) is detected and if the current vehicle velocity exceeds a threshold velocity. The invention also relates to a vehicle (3) comprising a vehicle driver assist arrangement (1) and a method of assisting a driver of a vehicle (3).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a vehicle driver assistance device. The invention also relates to a vehicle comprising a vehicle driver assistance device and a method of assisting a driver of a vehicle. Background technique [0002] Vehicle driver aids, such as curve speed warning devices, have been used in cars for many years. This device warns the driver of a vehicle when the vehicle is approaching a curve at a speed too high to negotiate the curve in a comfortable or safe manner. The input of such a device can be, for example, data from a positioning system as well as data from an electronic map, and when it is determined that a curve ahead of a vehicle with a certain speed will make passing through the curve uncomfortable or dangerous warning. Such a device is described, for example, in document GB2413884A. The problem with this device is that the warnings issued by the device are not very accurate. That is, such devices tend to warn too often, and t...
