Abstract
Disclosed is a control assistance device that includes a radar system that detects surrounding objects, and generates radar tracking information tracking a position of the surrounding object relative to a vehicle, and a camera system, that includes cameras, and generates image information, and camera tracking information tracking the position of the surrounding object. The control assistance device also includes processors that determine whether the radar tracking information is generated in real time when the surrounding object approaches within a preset distance from the vehicle based on generated tracking information that includes the radar tracking information or the camera tracking information, determine whether the camera tracking information is generated in real time, when the radar tracking information is determined as generated in real time, and control a braking system of the vehicle based on the generated tracking information, when the camera tracking information is determined as generated in real time.
