Abstract:
1. A vehicle driving assist system comprising: an accelerator pedal actuation amount detecting section configured to detect an amount of actuation of an accelerator pedal of a host vehicle by a driver; a risk potential calculating section configured to calculate a risk potential of the host vehicle with respect to a preceding obstacle based on detected information regarding the preceding obstacle; a driving force correction amount calculating section configured to calculate a driving force correction amount based on the risk potential calculated by the risk potential calculating section so that a requested driving force determined according to the amount of actuation of the accelerator pedal is reduced by the driving force correction amount; an acceleration/deceleration intent detecting section configured to detect an acceleration/deceleration intent of the driver based on the amount of actuation of the accelerator pedal; a driving force correction amount adjusting section configured to adjust the driving force correction amount based on the acceleration/deceleration intent of the driver detected by the acceleration/deceleration intent detecting section; and a driving force control section configured to control a driving force exerted against the host vehicle in accordance with the requested driving force corrected by the driving force correction amount.
