Running support system for vehicle

A running support system for a vehicle, comprising:

• a radar that detects an object near the vehicle;
• a camera that detects the object near the vehicle;
• and
• a vehicle control system that supports running of the vehicle,
• wherein a control condition for running support control performed by the vehicle control system is changed on the basis of an evaluation whether the same object has been detected by
• (i) only the radar,
• (ii) only the camera, or
• (iii) both the radar and the camera;
• and
• wherein a probability that the object exists is calculated to be the highest when both the radar and the camera detect the object, the next highest when only one of the radar or the camera detects the object, and the lowest when neither the radar nor the camera detects the object, and the control condition is changed in accordance with the calculated probability.

A running support system for a vehicle, comprising:

• a first object detecting portion that detects an object near the vehicle using a radar;
• a second object detecting portion that detects the object near the vehicle by performing image recognition based on an obtained image of an area near the vehicle;
• a running support portion that supports running of the vehicle;
• and
• an inattentive condition detecting portion that detects whether a driver is driving in an inattentive condition based on detection of an orientation of the driver's face;
• wherein a control condition for running support control performed by the running support portion changes based on an evaluation of whether the object is detected by
• (i) only the first object detecting portion,
• (ii) only the second object detecting portion, or
• (iii) both the first object detecting portion and the second object detecting portion;
• and
• wherein the control condition for running support control performed by the running support portion changes based on the inattentive condition of the driver detected by the inattentive condition detecting portion.
