Abstract

The invention relates to an apparatus and method for controlling narrow road driving of a vehicle. The apparatus for controlling narrow road driving of a vehicle includes: an image transform unit generating a depth map using depth information of an object in a front image of a road on which the vehicle travels and generating a height map of the front image by transforming the generated depth map;a map analysis unit recognizing the object and calculating a driving allowable area of the road based on the generated height map; a determination unit determining whether the road is a narrow road based on the calculated driving allowable area and, when the road is determined to be the narrow road, determining whether the vehicle is able to pass through the narrow road; and a signal processing unit controlling driving of the vehicle on the narrow road based on the determination of whether the vehicle is able to pass through the narrow road.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application is based on and claims priority from Korean Patent Application No. 10-2016-0170213 filed with the Korean Intellectual Property Office on December 14, 2016, the entire contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference. technical field [0003] The present invention relates generally to vehicle control systems, and more particularly to apparatus and methods for controlling narrow road travel of a vehicle. Background technique [0004] Drivers often have to drive on narrow roads due to road features, surrounding objects, and the like. For example, drivers may have to drive on narrow roads due to the many vehicles parked on streets in residential areas where parking spaces are tight. An inexperienced driver may be prone to a collision due to unskilled driving and lack of driving experience when driving through a narrow area, and accordingly may feel uncomfortable when driving on a narrow road.
