<p>PURPOSE:To perform an image recognition by means of a camera surely even at night by installing a device detecting an obstacle or the like from an image of the camera and a distance measuring instrument in a gap with an object, and controlling the distance measuring instrument and the lighting direction of head lamps directively to the side of the object. CONSTITUTION:This car-mounted equipment is provided with a lane sensor, an obstacle sensor, an image recognizer by means of a camera, through which a travel lane, an obstacle on the lane, a car distance and relative speed with a preceding car, a distance or the like with the obstacle are detected, judging a degree of traveling safety on the basis of the secured data, and thereby a steering wheel, an accelerator, a brake or the like are operated, and thus any possible dangerousness is avoided. In the car-mounted equipment like that, at night in partuclar, the lighting direction of headlights or the like is compensated according to the curved status of a road. In brief, the lighting direction of the headlights of one's own car 5b is controlled in a 7e direction so as to light up a preceding car 5a at the curved road. In addition, simultaneously the lighting direction of a beam of a device measuring a car distance and a relative speed is also controlled in the 7e direction too.</p> |
