  • Publication number: 20190286127
    Abstract: According to the present invention, a vehicle control device that carries out driving support or automated driving of a self-vehicle is provided. The vehicle control device comprises a steering controller that performs steering control on a manual operation by a driver or an automated operation. The steering controller accepts steering input by a manual operation by the driver in addition to a system steering amount by the vehicle control device while steering control by the vehicle control device is performed, returns a predetermined reaction force to the manual operation upon accepting the steering input, and makes the reaction force to the manual operation larger in a case where traveling is performed in a second state where steering wheel grasping is unrequired, as compared with a case where traveling is performed in a first state where steering wheel grasping is required.

  • Publication number: 20190283775
    Abstract: A vehicle control device including: a recognizer (13) that recognizes a surrounding situation of a subject vehicle; a driving controller (140 or 160) that executes driving control of controlling one or both of steering and acceleration/deceleration of the subject vehicle on the basis of the surrounding situation recognized by the recognizer; and a notifier (30 or 180) that notifies a vehicle occupant of the subject vehicle of predetermined information, wherein the driving controller sets a degree of margin for a surrounding environment set in the driving control after start of the notification of the predetermined information using the notifier to be higher than that before start of the notification of the predetermined information.

  • Publication number: 20190278266
    Abstract: A control apparatus for controlling a vehicle includes a travel control unit configured to perform travel control of the vehicle and a guidance unit capable of providing guidance relating to the travel control. When an operation of the travel control unit is controlled by an operation apparatus, the guidance unit determines whether to provide guidance on a basis of a past operation state of at least one of the travel control unit or the guidance unit.
