    Abstract: An object in front of a vehicle is detected. At least one of a steering angle of the vehicle and a yaw rate thereof is detected. First curvature data are generated on the basis of at least one of the detected steering angle and the detected yaw rate. The first curvature data represent a course along which the vehicle will travel. A determination is made as to whether or not the detected object is a stationary object. In cases where the detected object is a stationary object, second curvature data are generated on the basis of the stationary object. The second curvature data represent a course along which the vehicle will travel. The first curvature data and the second curvature data are averaged. Third curvature data are generated in response to a result of the averaging. The third curvature data represent a course along which the vehicle will travel.

    Abstract: The vehicular deceleration control apparatus applies deceleration to a vehicle in accordance with the amount of operation of an accelerator. The deceleration control apparatus determines whether there is an abnormality based on a deviation between a set target deceleration and a detected actual deceleration. If an abnormality of a system is detected, the apparatus discontinues the control, and transmits a system abnormality signal to indicate the abnormality to other systems and to an operator.

    Abstract: In an adaptive speed control system for a vehicle, a method and system are provided for controlling a speed of the vehicle while the vehicle is traversing a curved path. The method includes sensing a yaw rate of the vehicle, determining a yaw acceleration based on the yaw rate, and determining a maximum allowed speed of the vehicle on the curved path based on the yaw rate and the yaw acceleration, the maximum allowed speed being capable of varying continuously. The method also includes limiting the speed of the vehicle on the curved path to a value no greater than the maximum allowed vehicle speed. The system includes a sensor capable of sensing a yaw rate of the vehicle, and a controller capable of determining a yaw acceleration based on the yaw rate, and capable of determining a maximum allowed speed of the vehicle on the curved path based on the yaw rate and the yaw acceleration, the maximum allowed speed being capable of varying continuously. The controller of the system is also capable of limiting the speed of the vehicle on the curved path to a value no greater than the maximum allowed vehicle speed.

    Abstract: A control system with multiple brake-pedal selected disengagement-modes for an automated vehicle includes a brake-pedal and a controller. The brake-pedal is used to detect a plurality of pedal-action-classifications based on one of pedal-force, depression-duration, and a combination of pedal-force and depression-duration. The controller is in communication with the brake-pedal. The controller operates the system into a first-mode in response to the brake-pedal being operated in accordance with a first-action-classification, and into a second-mode in response to the brake-pedal being operated in accordance with a second-action-classification different from the first-action-classification.

    Abstract: A system for controlling vehicles in a platoon includes a lead vehicle controller on a lead vehicle in the platoon and a following vehicle controller on a following vehicle in the platoon. The lead vehicle controller is adapted to determine a braking distance, based on an initial speed of the lead vehicle and a percent of full service brake application of the lead vehicle, and transmit a braking distance signal indicating the braking distance. The following vehicle controller is adapted to identify the braking distance upon receiving the braking distance signal, determine a percent of full service brake application of the following vehicle based on an initial speed of the following vehicle and the braking distance, and transmit a signal to a following vehicle service brake to apply the following vehicle service brake at the determined percent of full service brake application.
