Solution Overview
Problem
Two-wheel vehicles often lack airbags and communication devices, making them more susceptible to injury during collisions with four-wheel vehicles, as they may overturn, leading to greater passenger injury risks.
Innovation Solution
A driving support device equipped with a peripheral information acquisition unit, moving body detection unit, overturn determination unit, additional information acquisition unit, emergency information sending unit, additional information determination unit, stop request unit, and urgent aid treatment method display unit, which detects and responds to collisions by sending emergency information and requesting stops to reduce injury.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If two-wheel vehicles are equipped with airbags and communication devices, then passenger safety during collision is improved, but cost and mountability are worsened
Solution Approach 1:
The patent uses the four-wheel vehicle's detection and communication systems as intermediaries to provide safety functions for the two-wheel vehicle. The four-wheel vehicle's imaging device detects the two-wheel vehicle's status, and its communication device transmits emergency information, allowing the two-wheel vehicle to benefit from safety features without carrying its own expensive equipment.
2Measurement precision
If emergency information including overturn situation is sent to external device, then assistance accuracy is improved, but information transmission complexity is worsened
Solution Approach 1:
The system pre-establishes communication channels and information formats between the vehicles. The four-wheel vehicle's imaging device is pre-configured to detect overturn situations, and the data transmission protocol is pre-arranged, allowing rapid and accurate information exchange during emergencies without complex real-time decision-making.

AI summary
The present disclosure provides a driving support device which can reduce injury during collision. A driving support device 11 includes: a peripheral information acquisition unit 40 which acquires peripheral information of a vehicle 1; a moving body detection unit 201 which detects a two-wheel vehicle 100 in the periphery of the vehicle 1 based on the peripheral information; an overturn determination unit 202 which determines whether the two-wheel vehicle 100 has overturned based on the peripheral information; an additional information acquisition unit 203 which acquires the additional information indicating the overturn situation of the two-wheel vehicle 100, in the case of being determined that the two-wheel vehicle 100 overturned; and an emergency information sending unit 204 which sends the additional information to the emergency call center 200 together with the emergency call information for performing an emergency call for the two-wheel vehicle 100.
