Abstract

An apparatus for setting a speed of a vehicle is provided. The apparatus includes a first camera, a second camera, a navigation, and a processor. The processor detects inattention of a driver of the vehicle based on an operation for a steering device of the vehicle, an operation for a deceleration device of the vehicle, an operation for an acceleration device of the vehicle, or an image obtained by the first camera. The processor also obtains information associated with a lane of a road in which the vehicle is traveling and information associated with a surrounding vehicle based on an image obtained by the second camera, a heading angle of the vehicle, a speed of the vehicle, a yaw rate of the vehicle, a trajectory of the surrounding vehicle, or a curvature of the road, obtained by the navigation, and performs deceleration control.
