Abstract:
1. A speed controller for a car using telematics, the speed controller comprising: a sensor unit to detect the speed of the car according to traveling, a distance from the car to an object in front, and an operating status of a brake pedal and an accelerator pedal; a telematics system to output a signal to control the travel speed of the car automatically and a gear shifting signal so as to prevent a collision accident with the object in front, when the travel speed of the car and the distance from the car to the object in front exceeds a preset range of an approaching distance, in response to the signal detected by the sensor unit; a speed regulation system to maintain the travel speed of the car within a speed limit by controlling an accelerator pedal and a brake pedal control unit, in response to the control signal outputted by the telematics system; and an automatic transmission system to set a gear shifting level corresponding to the travel speed of the car controlled by the speed regulation system by automatically controlling a gear shifting lever control unit, in response to a gear shifting signal outputted by the telematics system.
