Abstract
A rear side warning system for a vehicle includes at least one processor configured to: sense an external obstacle of the vehicle; classify the external obstacle as either one of a fixed object and a moving object; and control a rear side warning signal of the vehicle based on a result of the classifying of the external obstacle.
Claims9
A rear side warning system for a vehicle, comprising:
- at least one processor configured to:
- sense an external obstacle of the vehicle;
- classify the external obstacle as either one of a fixed object and a moving object;
- and
- control a rear side warning signal of the vehicle based on a result of the classifying of the external obstacle,
- wherein the at least one processor comprises:
- a sensing unit configured to sense the external obstacle;
- a determination unit configured to classify the external obstacle as either one of the fixed object and the moving object;
- and
- a control unit configured to control the rear side warning signal of the vehicle based on the result of the classifying of the external obstacle,
- wherein the determination unit is further configured to determine that the vehicle enters a driving road having a limited height, in response to a number of positions of the fixed object sensed by the sensing unit during a preset time period being equal to or greater than a preset number;
- and
- wherein in response to the vehicle entering the driving road having the limited height, the processor is further configured to expand a rear side warning-keeping area where a warning is set off when the moving object enters a preset area, or increase a rear side warning-keeping time.

A rear side warning method for a vehicle, the method comprising:
- sensing an external obstacle of the vehicle;
- classifying the sensed external obstacle as either one of a fixed object and a moving object;
- and
- controlling a rear side warning signal of the vehicle based on a result of the classifying of the obstacle,
- wherein the classifying the sensed external obstacle comprises determining that the vehicle enters a driving road having a limited height, in response to a number of positions of the fixed object sensed by the sensing unit during a preset time period being equal to or greater than a preset number, and
- wherein the controlling of the rear side warning signal of the vehicle comprises, in response the vehicle entering the driving road having the limited height, expanding a rear side warning-keeping area where a warning is set off when the moving object enters a preset area, or increasing a rear side warning-keeping time.
