Vehicle Control System for Dynamic Driver Assistance Package Selection
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional vehicle control systems lack the ability for drivers to freely set permissions for individual driver assistance operations during automated driving, making it difficult to tailor driving assistance to changing situations.
Innovation Solution
A control system that includes a surrounding environment information acquiring device, a host vehicle information acquiring device, and a driver information acquiring device, which work together with an automated driving control part to determine and propose a driver assistance package based on the current conditions, allowing drivers to easily select and authorize specific assistance operations.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the driver manually sets permission for each driver assistance operation, then the automation can be tailored to the actual situation, but the operation complexity increases significantly
Solution Approach 1:
The system segments driver assistance operations into multiple categories (distance control, lane keeping, automatic lane change, etc.) and allows selective permission setting for each category through a structured interface, making the complex permission-setting process more manageable and systematic
Solution Approach 2:
The system provides preset permission configurations that are prepared in advance based on typical driving scenarios. Drivers can select from these pre-configured options rather than setting each parameter from scratch, significantly reducing the operational burden while still allowing customization when needed
2Device complexity
If the system uses switching to automated driving mode to judge driver permission, then the control system is simple, but the driver cannot freely set permission for individual operations
Solution Approach 1:
The permission configuration system is designed to be dynamic rather than static. Permission settings can be modified at different stages (before starting automated driving or during operation), and the system adapts to driver needs in real-time, providing both simplicity and flexibility
3Adaptability or versatility
If the driver sets permission during automated driving, then the automation can adapt to changing situations, but the response time is delayed
Solution Approach 1:
The system encourages drivers to set permission configurations in advance before starting automated driving mode. This preliminary action ensures that permission settings are already optimized for the anticipated driving situation, eliminating the need for time-consuming adjustments during actual automated operation
Solution Approach 2:
The system provides feedback mechanisms that monitor driving conditions and can suggest optimal permission configurations. This feedback loop helps drivers make informed decisions about permission settings, reducing the time needed to achieve optimal configuration

AI summary
A control system for a vehicle comprises an automated driving control part configured to automatically perform driver assistance operations for which the driver has given permission among a plurality of driver assistance operations. The automated driving control part comprises a package determining part using at least one of the surrounding environment information, the host vehicle information, and the driver information as the basis to determine a driver assistance package packaging permissions for a plurality of driver assistance operations and a package proposing part proposing to the driver to switch to a driver assistance package so as to obtain permissions for the individual driver assistance operations permitted in the driver assistance package.
