Abstract
A driving force control apparatus includes: a sensor that collects information associated with a state of a vehicle, a driving device that provides a driving force to a drive wheel of the vehicle, and a processor electrically connected with the sensor and the driving device. In particular, the processor calculates a required driving force of a driver and a limit driving force of the vehicle based on at least a portion of information collected by means of the sensor, in a situation where the vehicle is turning. The processor further controls the driving device such that the required driving force does not exceed the limit driving force.
Claims20
A driving force control apparatus, comprising:
- a sensor configured to collect information associated with a state of a vehicle;
- a driving device configured to provide a driving force to a drive wheel of the vehicle;
- and
- a processor electrically connected with the sensor and the driving device,
- wherein the processor is configured to:
- calculate a required driving force of a driver and a limit driving force of the vehicle based on at least a portion of information collected by means of the sensor, in a situation where the vehicle is turning;
- and
- control the driving device such that the required driving force does not exceed the limit driving force.
A vehicle system, comprising:
- a manipulation device including a steering input device, an acceleration input device, and a brake input device;
- and
- a driving force control apparatus electrically connected with the manipulation device,
- wherein the driving force control apparatus is configured to:
- collect information associated with a state of a vehicle in a situation where the vehicle is turning and calculate a required driving force of a driver and a limit driving force of the vehicle based on at least a portion of the collected information;
- and
- generate a braking force when the required driving force exceeds the limit driving force.
An operation method of a driving force control apparatus, the operation method comprising:
- collecting information associated with a state of a vehicle, in a situation where the vehicle is turning;
- calculating a required driving force of a driver and a limit driving force of the vehicle based on at least a portion of the collected information;
- and
- controlling a driving force for a drive wheel of the vehicle such that the required driving force does not exceed the limit driving force.
