Solution Overview

Problem

Advanced driver assist systems (ADAS) generate sensitive warnings in unstable road conditions, particularly when transitioning between straight and curved roads due to transverse vehicle motion, especially with stationary obstacles like guardrails.

Innovation Solution

A vehicle control system that utilizes sensors to recognize target objects and environmental conditions, determining desensitization control points to adjust braking sensitivity based on index values related to steering angle, path curvature, object position, and illumination, preventing unnecessary warnings.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If the ADAS uses sensor data to perform vehicle control for safety, then driving safety is improved, but sensitive warnings are generated unnecessarily in high-curvature road conditions

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedriving safetyVSAvoidsensitive warnings
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSObject-generated harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The system changes the control parameter (braking sensitivity) based on road curvature conditions. When high curvature is detected through sensor data analysis, the system adjusts the braking control point to reduce sensitivity, preventing unnecessary warnings while maintaining safety in normal conditions

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The braking control point is made dynamic rather than fixed. The system continuously adjusts the braking control point based on real-time road conditions detected by sensors, allowing the control parameter to adapt to changing environmental conditions and vehicle behavior

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

2Ease of operation

If the ADAS performs vehicle control using sensor data, then driving convenience is improved, but the system generates false warnings during vehicle transverse motion on curved roads

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedriving convenienceVSAvoidfalse warnings
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The system adjusts the braking control sensitivity parameter based on detected road curvature and vehicle motion characteristics, reducing false warnings during normal transverse motion on curved roads while maintaining responsiveness to actual hazards

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The system uses sensor feedback to continuously monitor vehicle behavior and road conditions, adjusting the braking control point based on this feedback to distinguish between normal transverse motion and situations requiring warning

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

AI summary

An autonomous driving vehicle includes a processor. The processor receives at least one sensor information from a plurality of sensors mounted to a host vehicle; recognizes a target object disposed in front of the driving host vehicle based on the received sensor information; compares and analyzes a driving environment condition of a current driving road of the host vehicle with the target object; calculates a desensitization control point corresponding to a compared and analyzed result; and controls a braking state of the host vehicle to be varied based on the calculated desensitization control point.
