  • Publication number: 20240132084
    Abstract: An object detection method includes determining an error parameter associated with an amount of movement of a vehicle through a predetermined regression method based on positioning information of the vehicle and dynamics information of the vehicle with respect to a predetermined center of gravity of the vehicle, determining a velocity of a predetermined point of the vehicle, based on a fixed error parameter stored in a memory or a corrected fixed error parameter, through a comparison between the error parameter and the fixed error parameter, generating a local map in consideration of the amount of movement of the vehicle based on the determined velocity, and detecting an object around the vehicle based on the local map.

  • Publication number: 20230066321
    Abstract: Disclosed are an autonomous vehicle, a control system for remotely controlling the same, and a method thereof. Provided is an autonomous vehicle, including an autonomous driving control apparatus. The control apparatus is configured to include a processor. The processor is configured to generate a candidate path group to a destination, request a remote driving reservation to the control system when an autonomous driving section and a section requiring remote control are included in the candidate path group, receive a path selected from the candidate path group by a user depending on availability of a remote driving reservation of the control system and estimated fare, control the vehicle to follow the selected path, and control the vehicle depending on remote control of the control system when the vehicle reaches the section requiring remote control. The control apparatus is further configured to include a communication device configured to communicate with the control system.
