New method of automotive tire pressure detection and safe identification

The invention provides a method for correspondingly marking the most protuberant part of the deformed rubber corresponding to the outer side of an automobile tire with a white fluorescent paint line and coating a red fluorescent paint line in the position which is one second distance below from the white line as a safety mark according to the allowable normal inflation pressure standard range calibrated when the tires of sedans and miniature vehicles leave the factory (for example, the allowable normal inflation pressure standard ranges of a 1.5t FIAT sedan, a 0.6t CHANG'AN STAR miniature minibus and a 1.0t LINGYANG sedan are respectively 2.3 to 2.8 Kg / cm<2>, 2.2 to 2.5Kg / cm<2> and 2.2 to 2.6Kg / cm<2>). When the red fluorescent paint line disappears and the most protuberant part of the deformed rubber on the outer side of the tire is above the white fluorescent paint line, the tire pressure is indicated to be too low, and measures, such as inflation, tire repair, etc., should be carried out. When the most protuberant part is below the white fluorescent paint line and above the red fluorescent paint line, the tire pressure is indicated to be too high, and the measure of deflation should be carried out. The method has the advantages of visibility, rapidness, convenience, safety, practicality and low cost, and is easily accepted by drivers and tire manufacturers, completed at one time in the tire manufacturer and easily generalized and applied.

Vehicle drive assist system

A form of a travel path of an oncoming vehicle is recognized based on white-line data. A speed component of the oncoming vehicle with respect to the travel path (route) is calculated by weighting a lateral speed component orthogonal to the route and a lateral speed component following the route, with a speed correction coefficient which is set in accordance with a relative distance between a subject vehicle and the oncoming vehicle. A change in behavior of the oncoming vehicle is predicted, and a possibility of collision against the subject vehicle is determined. If it is determined that there is a possibility of collision, an alarm is output to alert a driver to the possibility of collision.

Lane line estimating apparatus

A fixed data memory stores data of a normal lane width between lane lines and a narrow lane width between inner guide lines of double white lines. A lane-line candidate setting section detects lane-line detection points on both sides of a driving lane using a captured image, and sets lane-line candidate points on the opposite lane lines at spaces of the widths and therebetween, using the detection points as starting points. A curve approximation processing section sets virtual lines on both sides of the driving lane from a curve approximation equation obtained using the detection and candidate points. A lane-line position setting section obtains dispersions of the candidate points to the left and right virtual lines, and estimates the type of at least one of the left and right virtual lines.
