Electronic control device and method for vehicle

Abstract

The application relates to an electronic control device and method for a vehicle. The application provides an electronic control device for a vehicle, comprising: a judgment unit for judging whether atraffic light in front of the vehicle is red; and an acquisition unit for acquiring a plurality of available lanes of the vehicle and object information related to each object waiting in the available lanes in response to the red traffic light as judged; a calculation unit for calculating a predicted waiting time for each available lane based on the object information; and an output unit for outputting lane selection information based on the predicted waiting time for each available lane. The electronic control device and method for a vehicle provide a mode for selecting a lane on which the vehicle can be driven faster from the plurality of available lanes when the vehicle encounters a red light.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application generally relates to the field of vehicles, and more particularly, to electronic control devices and methods for vehicles. Background technique [0002] With the rapid growth of the number of motor vehicles, road traffic jams are becoming more and more common, especially when encountering a red light, the vehicle needs to follow behind the vehicle waiting for the red light in front of it, and can continue to move forward when the vehicle in front of it starts to move. However, when a vehicle encounters a red light, there are often multiple queues waiting in multiple available lanes in front of the vehicle, and the driver chooses a lane among the multiple available lanes to stop and wait for the red light through simple observation or pure intuition , this not only increases the driver's burden, but also this way of selecting lanes is very blind, and it may not be possible to select a lane in which the vehicle can travel faster a...

However, when a vehicle encounters a red light, there are often multiple queues waiting in multiple available lanes in front of the vehicle, and the driver chooses a lane among the multiple available lanes to stop and wait for the red light through simple observation or pure intuition , this not only increases the burden on the driver, but also this way of selecting lanes is very blind, and it is not necessarily possible to select a lane in which the vehicle can travel faster after the traffic light turns green
