Abstract
An automatic steering control apparatus includes a steering torque detector and a steering processor. The steering torque detector is configured to detect a steering torque amount applied to a steering shaft of a vehicle. The steering processor is configured to switch between an automatic steering and a manual steering. The steering processor is configured to calculate an integration value in which the steering torque amount detected by the steering torque detector is integrated for a predetermined period, and switch the automatic steering to the manual steering when the integration value exceeds an integration threshold.
Claims14
An automatic steering control apparatus comprising:
- a steering torque detector configured to detect steering torque amounts applied to a steering shaft of a vehicle;
- and
- a steering processor configured to:
- start an automatic steering for a lane change in the vehicle;
- calculate an integration value in which the steering torque amounts detected over a predetermined period by the steering torque detector are integrated;
- and
- switch the automatic steering to a manual steering when the integration value exceeds an integration threshold while the automatic steering for the lane change is being performed.
An automatic steering control method comprising:
- starting an automatic steering for a lane change in a vehicle;
- calculating, with a computer, an integration value in which steering torque amounts applied to a steering shaft of the vehicle over a predetermined period are integrated;
- and
- switching, with the computer, an automatic steering to a manual steering when the integration value exceeds an integration threshold while the automatic steering for the lane change is being performed.
A non-transitory computer readable medium containing an automatic steering control program, the automatic steering control program causing, when executed by a computer, the computer to implement a method, the method comprising:
- starting an automatic steering for a lane change in a vehicle;
- calculating an integration value in which steering torque amounts applied to a steering shaft of the vehicle over a predetermined period are integrated;
- and
- switching an automatic steering to a manual steering when the integration value exceeds an integration threshold while the automatic steering for the lane change is being performed.
