A vehicle support information system mounted in a vehicle, the vehicle support system including: a man-detecting unit; a vehicle-position detecting unit; a communication unit; a man-position/waiting-score calculating unit; a stopping-vehicle determining unit determining whether or not the vehicle should be stopped, based on a man position and a waiting score of an at least one potential-crossing-man; a travelling controller for stopping the vehicle when the stopping-vehicle determining unit determines that the vehicle should be stopped; and a man-crossing-signal display unit displaying information to inform the at least one potential-crossing-man whether or not the at least one potential-crossing-man can safely cross the road, based on an instruction of the stopping-vehicle determining unit, wherein the man-position/waiting-score calculating unit outputs the man-position/waiting-score to the communication unit.
A vehicle support information system mounted in a vehicle, the vehicle support system comprising:
A method for supporting a man crossing a road using a vehicle information system including a man-detecting unit detecting the man in a travelling direction of a vehicle, a vehicle-position detecting unit detecting a position of the vehicle, a communication unit, a man-position/waiting-score calculating unit, a stopping-vehicle determining unit, a travelling controller, and a man-crossing-signal display unit, the method comprising:
