Description

  The present invention relates to a vehicle driving support system including a radio wave type radar device that detects a situation around a vehicle using radio waves and a camera that captures an image around the vehicle.

  It has been proposed to mount radio wave radar devices in vehicles such as automobiles that detect obstacles and measure the distance between vehicles by radiating millimeter waves and microwaves and measuring the reflected waves. (See Patent Document 1). Such radio wave type radar devices are attracting attention in recent years because they are resistant to bad weather such as rain, fog, and snow, and have a longer measurable distance than other methods.

  In the system of Patent Document 1, the radar device is hidden from the outside of the vehicle by the exterior component at a position on the inner side of the exterior component (specifically, the front grill garnish) where one surface forms the outer surface of the vehicle. Has been placed. Note that the exterior component has radio wave permeability that allows radio waves to pass therethrough. Therefore, it is possible to radiate radio waves from the radar device to the outside of the vehicle and to enter the reflected waves from the outside of the vehicle to the radar device through the exterior parts.

  Here, in addition to mounting a radio wave type radar device on the vehicle, a camera for shooting an image around the vehicle may be provided. In this case, from the viewpoint of the design of the vehicle, it is desirable to arrange the camera in a manner that is concealed from the outside of the vehicle similarly to the radar device. However, although the camera is arranged, it is not preferable to increase the number of exterior parts or to increase the size of the exterior parts because design restrictions on the vehicle increase.

  The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide a vehicle driving support system in which a radar device and a camera are concealed from the outside of the vehicle and can be arranged using space effectively. It is in.

  Hereinafter, a vehicle driving support system for solving the above-described problems has a radio wave transmitting portion that transmits radio waves and a light transmitting portion that transmits at least light from the inside of the vehicle toward the outside of the vehicle, and one surface covers the outer surface of the vehicle. An exterior part to be formed, and a radio wave type that is disposed on the vehicle inner side than the exterior part and radiates a radio wave to the outside of the vehicle through the radio wave transmission part and measures a reflected wave to detect a surrounding state of the vehicle A vehicle driving support system comprising: a radar device of the above; and a camera that is disposed on the vehicle inner side than the exterior part and that captures an image of the surroundings of the vehicle through light incident from outside the vehicle through the light transmission portion. And the arrangement | positioning position of the said camera is a position which is not contained in the detection range of the said radar apparatus.

  When the shape of the exterior part is determined in consideration of design and mounting properties, the detection range of the radar device (the radio wave radiated from the radar device passes through the shape of the exterior part and the location of the exterior part) And the cross-sectional shape of the range through which the reflected wave measured by the radar device passes often does not match.

  According to the system, in such a case, the camera is concealed from the outside of the vehicle by using a portion not included in the detection range of the radar device in the space inside the vehicle with respect to the exterior parts, and In addition, it is possible to dispose the vehicle surrounding image in a manner capable of capturing an image around the vehicle via the light transmission part of the exterior part. Thereby, the image | video of the vehicle periphery by a camera can be taken, without interfering with the detection by a radar apparatus.

  In addition, a portion including the detection range of the radar device in the exterior part can be used as a radio wave transmitting portion. Then, the radar device is concealed from the outside of the vehicle inside the exterior of the exterior component, and the radiation of the radio wave and the measurement of the reflected wave are performed by the radar device via the radio wave transmission part of the exterior component. Can be arranged in a possible manner. Thereby, the situation around the vehicle can be detected by the radar device.

As described above, according to the system described above, it is possible to arrange the radar device and the camera by effectively using the space while concealing the radar device and the camera from the outside of the vehicle.
In the above system, the exterior component is preferably an emblem provided at a front portion of the vehicle.

  Usually, the shape of the emblem is determined without considering the detection range of the radar device. Therefore, when the radar device is arranged inside the emblem, the shape of the emblem and the cross-sectional shape of the detection range of the radar device at the position where the emblem is arranged are not the same shape. According to the said system, a camera can be arrange | positioned using the part which is not contained in the said detection range in the space inside a vehicle rather than an emblem.

  In the system, the exterior component is a decorative grill provided at a front portion of the vehicle having an emblem, the radio wave transmitting portion is the emblem, and the light transmitting portion is the emblem in the decorative grill. It is preferable that it is a part other than.

  According to the system described above, the radar device is concealed from the outside of the vehicle on the vehicle interior side than the decorative grille, and the radiation of the radio wave and the measurement of the reflected wave are performed by the radar device via the emblem serving as the radio wave transmitting unit. Can be arranged in such a manner that can be performed. In addition, the camera is concealed from the outside of the vehicle on the vehicle interior side than the decorative grille, and it is possible to shoot a video around the vehicle through a portion (light transmission part) other than the emblem in the decorative grille. Can be arranged in various ways.

  In the above system, the camera is preferably a stereo camera having two imaging elements arranged at an interval, and the arrangement position of the two imaging elements is preferably a position that sandwiches the detection range. .

  When a video around a vehicle is captured by a camera, stereoscopic information may be collected by a stereo camera. In this case, by disposing the two imaging elements at positions sandwiching the detection range of the radar device, the deviation between the detection direction of the radar device and the imaging direction of the stereo camera can be reduced. This facilitates collation of information obtained from the video captured by the camera and information obtained from the situation detected by the radar device, and based on the information, a specific direction (for example, vehicle front or vehicle rear) ) In the vehicle surroundings in detail. According to the system described above, such an arrangement mode of the stereo camera and the radar device can be realized by utilizing the space inside the exterior part of the vehicle.

  According to the present invention, it is possible to arrange the radar device and the camera by effectively using the space while concealing the radar device and the camera from the outside of the vehicle.
