Abstract
An embodiment vehicle includes a transmission configured to set a travel direction of the vehicle, an indoor camera configured to capture a driver of the vehicle, a cluster configured to display information while the vehicle is in operation, and a main controller configured to, in response to the transmission being shifted to reverse, identify whether a gaze of the driver captured by the indoor camera is directed to a rear of the vehicle and, in response to a determination that the gaze of the driver is not directed to the rear, control to display a warning message.
Claims12
A vehicle, comprising:
- a transmission configured to set a travel direction of the vehicle;
- an indoor camera configured to capture a driver of the vehicle;
- a cluster configured to display information while the vehicle is in operation;
- a main controller configured to:
- in response to the transmission being shifted to reverse, identify whether a gaze of the driver captured by the indoor camera is directed to a rear of the vehicle;
- and
- in response to a determination that the gaze of the driver is not directed to the rear, control to display a warning message;
- a brake controller configured to control a braking system of the vehicle;
- and
- a detection sensor installed on the vehicle and configured to determine an obstacle at a side of or to the rear of the vehicle, wherein;
- in response to the determination that the gaze of the driver is not directed to the rear and the obstacle being determined by the detection sensor in the travel direction of the vehicle, the main controller is further configured to control the brake controller to brake the vehicle earlier than a preset time based on an estimated time remaining until collision with the obstacle, and
- the main controller is further configured to control the brake controller to allow a speed of the vehicle to be less than or equal to a predetermined speed in response to the determination that the gaze of the driver is not directed to the rear.
A method of controlling a vehicle using a main controller, the method comprising:
- identifying that a transmission configured to set a travel direction of the vehicle is shifted to reverse;
- determining whether a driver of the vehicle looks at a rear of the vehicle by controlling an indoor camera to capture the driver of the vehicle;
- in response to a determination that the driver does not look at the rear, controlling to display a warning message to the driver;
- in response to determining that the driver does not look at the rear, controlling a brake controller to control a braking system of the vehicle;
- and
- determining whether an obstacle is determined in the travel direction of the vehicle by a detection sensor installed on the vehicle to determine the obstacle on a side or to the rear of the vehicle,
- wherein;
- in response to the determination that the driver does not look at the rear and in response to the determination that the obstacle is determined, controlling the brake controller comprises braking the vehicle earlier than a preset time based on an estimated time remaining until collision with the obstacle, and
- controlling the brake controller further comprises controlling the brake controller to allow a speed of the vehicle to be less than or equal to a predetermined speed in response to the determination that the driver does not look to the rear.
