It is described a vehicle peripheral monitoring device. The apparatus consists of a forward monitoring unit for keeping track of obstacles within a predetermined forward area that extends in front of an own vehicle, one or more forward-lateral monitoring units for keeping track of obstacles within a predetermined forward-lateral area that extends in the opposite direction, and a travelling environment detecting unit for keeping track of the own vehicle’s travel environment.
One or more forward-lateral monitoring units that monitor an obstacle within a predetermined forward-lateral area that extends in a direction lateral of the own vehicle relative to the predetermined forward area, as well as a travelling environment detecting unit that determines whether the obstacle is present in the predetermined forward area make up a vehicle peripheral monitoring apparatus.
A level of the suppressing of the monitoring with the forward-lateral monitoring units is eased when the travelling environment detecting unit detects that the own vehicle is travelling in a predetermined area, including the junction, of the predetermined road, and when the travelling environment detecting unit detects that the own vehicle is travelling on the predetermined road including a highway.
The Global Peripheral monitoring ECU market accounted for $XX Billion in 2021 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2022 to 2030.
By combining the first lane marking fusion function of camera image information processing, which addresses loss of sight of lane, with GPS position information and forward and peripheral images obtained from stereo cameras and SurroundEye monitoring cameras, Hitachi Automotive Systems, Ltd. announced today that it has developed vehicle localization estimation technology that improves the stability of autonomous driving.
Hitachi Automotive Systems is expediting the development of an advanced vehicle position detection system that satisfies such requirements since a vehicle that is being driven autonomously needs to constantly identify its position.
Positional detection must be stable and extremely accurate. Hitachi Automotive Systems is enhancing accuracy in the autonomous driving ECU by matching with regard to very accurate detection.
Hitachi Automotive Systems aims to gain an advantage over rivals by using this development of a lane marking fusion function to achieve the early practical implementation of such a system in a field where there is fierce competition to do so.
This system combines GPS position information and image information. At Hitachi Automotive Systems’ Sawa Works, the technologies that support such sophisticated vehicle position detecting systems have been verified, reaffirming their capabilities as solutions for autonomous driving systems.
