VEHICLE CONTROL APPARATUS

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a vehicle control apparatus capable of reducing the movement of a load when braking in relation with attributes such as the age gender and weight of an occupant.SOLUTION: A vehicle control apparatus 10 includes a camera 2 for imaging an occupant of a vehicle 1; a computation processing part 3 for analyzing the image of the occupant imaged by the camera 2, estimating age, gender and weight of the occupant; and a control part 4 for changing balance of brake force between front and rear wheels 11, 12 of the vehicle 1 in relation with distribution of categories of seating positions of the occupant regarding at least one attribute of attributes being the age, gender and weight of the occupant, the attributes estimated by the computation processing part 3.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】乗員の年齢、性別、体重などの属性に応じて、制動時の荷重移動を小さくすることが可能な車両制御装置を提供する。【解決手段】車両制御装置１０は、車両１の乗員を撮像するカメラ２と、カメラ２が撮像した乗員の画像を解析し、乗員の年齢、性別、体重を推定する演算処理部３と、演算処理部３で推定された乗員の年齢、性別、体重のうち、少なくとも１つの属性についての乗員の着座位置別の分布に応じて、車両１の前輪１１と後輪１２との制動力のバランスを変化させる制御部４とを備えている。【選択図】図１
