ABSTRACT A drive-assisted vehicle control device includes a controller that controls travel of a host vehicle. During travel on a curved route, the controller establishes a threshold value established as a boundary value for suppressing acceleration of the host vehicle. The threshold value is lower when another vehicle is present on an outside- peripheral-side curved route adjacent to a host-vehicle travel lane than when another vehicle is not present on the outside-peripheral-side curved route. The controller determines whether a lateral acceleration is greater than the threshold value during travel on a curved route. The controller permits accelerating travel on the curved route upon determining that the lateral acceleration is less than or equal to the threshold value, but suppresses accelerating travel on the curved route when upon determining that the lateral acceleration is greater than the threshold value.

B60R 1/23 - Dispositions de visualisation en temps réel pour les conducteurs ou les passagers utilisant des systèmes de capture d'images optiques, p.ex. des caméras ou des systèmes vidéo spécialement adaptés pour être utilisés dans ou sur des véhicules pour visualiser une zone extérieure au véhicule, p.ex. l’extérieur du véhicule avec un champ de vision prédéterminé
A braking force control method detects a wheel speed (w) of a vehicle (1), generates a holding braking force for holding the stopped state of the vehicle (1), regardless of whether or not a brake (3) is operated by a driver of the vehicle (1), when it is determined that the vehicle (1) has stopped, based on the wheel speed (w) detected in the state in which a braking force is applied to the vehicle (1), and delays the period in which the holding braking force is generated, in accordance with the friction coefficient of a road surface in the traveling path of the vehicle (1).
One aspect of the present invention is a course estimation method using a position acquisition circuit for acquiring the positions of surrounding vehicles and a course estimation circuit for estimating the course of the host vehicle on the basis of the traveling paths of the surrounding vehicles according to the positional histories of the surrounding vehicles. In this course estimation method, the course of the host vehicle is estimated by enlarging or reducing the traveling paths of the surrounding vehicles on the basis of the turning direction and transverse position of the surrounding vehicles.

TRAVEL LANE DETECTION METHOD AND TRAVEL LANE DETECTION DEVICE
Provided is a travel lane detection method for detecting travel lane boundaries according to a plurality of travel lane characteristic points detected by a target detection sensor installed in a vehicle. When a lane change of the vehicle is detected, the method determines continuity of the travel lane characteristic points detected before the lane change is completed with respect to the travel lane characteristic points detected after the lane change is completed while taking account of a lane change amount so as to detect the travel lane boundaries according to the continuity of the travel lane characteristic points.
Provided is a power supply system which is provided with two secondary batteries having different charge and discharge characteristics, and which is able to be mounted on a vehicle. This power supply system is provided with, as the two secondary batteries, a lead acid storage battery that is connected to an electrical load and a lithium ion storage battery that is connected to the electrical load in parallel with the lead acid storage battery via two paths, namely a first path and a second path. In addition, the power supply system is provided with: a power generator which is capable of charging the lead acid storage battery and the lithium ion storage battery; a first switch that is provided on the first path; a second switch that is provided on the second path; an electrical resistor element that is provided on the second path and has a resistance higher than the harness resistance of the first path; and a control means that controls on/off of the first and second switches in accordance with a voltage increase request of the electrical load, while controlling on/off of the power generator.
