DRIVING SUPPORT DEVICE

摘要

A trajectory tracking control unit carries out a trajectory tracking control in the event that a predetermined condition is satisfied. On the other hand, in the case that a preceding vehicle recognizing unit detects that a preceding vehicle has moved in a vehicle transverse direction, the trajectory tracking control unit predicts that the preceding vehicle will depart from a lane in which it is traveling. Therefore, even if the predetermined condition is satisfied after the preceding vehicle recognizing unit has detected that the preceding vehicle has moved in the vehicle transverse direction, the trajectory tracking control unit does not cause the driver's own vehicle to follow the trajectory of the preceding vehicle.

主权项

1. A driving support device comprising:
a preceding vehicle recognizing unit configured to recognize a preceding vehicle; and a trajectory tracking control unit configured to, in a case that a predetermined condition is satisfied, control a driver's own vehicle so as to follow a trajectory of the preceding vehicle that has been recognized by the preceding vehicle recognizing unit; wherein, even if the predetermined condition is satisfied after the preceding vehicle recognizing unit has detected that the preceding vehicle has moved in a vehicle transverse direction, the trajectory tracking control unit does not cause the driver's own vehicle to follow the trajectory of the preceding vehicle.
