  • Publication number: 20240409120
    Abstract: A control device for causing a vehicle to travel by autonomous driving based on a target path calculated based on a current position on map data of a vehicle estimated by a map data, a behavior detection sensor, and an external detection sensor, wherein a current position of the vehicle is estimated by correcting a position on map data of the vehicle in accordance with a relative position of the vehicle on a roadway, a correction amount at that time is obtained, a change in a correction amount is predicted by map data and an external detection sensor, and a control gain in a control input when the vehicle is caused to travel by autonomous driving is changed in accordance with the change, thereby changing a characteristic of the traveling control.

  • Publication number: 20240409118
    Abstract: An autonomous vehicle control device configured to determine a control input for causing an automatic driving to travel along a target trajectory determined based on an estimated current location of the vehicle by repeatedly performing a predetermined calculation, wherein the controller estimates the current location by correcting the location of the vehicle on the map data based on the relative location of the vehicle on the traveling road, and adjusts a predetermined parameter in the predetermined calculation in accordance with the amount of correction so that the number of repeated calculations is reduced when it is determined that the estimation of the current location is not accurate based on the amount of correction of the location at that time.

  • Publication number: 20240343260
    Abstract: An intervention operation determination apparatus includes: a steering unit operated by a driver; a steering wheel to be turned in conjunction with the operation of the steering unit; and a detection unit that detects an operation amount of the steering unit when a steering force that turns the steering wheel is generated. The intervention operation determination apparatus determines that the driver has operated the steering unit during autonomous driving in which traveling by controlling an actuator without an operation of the steering unit by the driver is performed. The intervention operation determination apparatus further includes a controller that controls the actuator. The controller determines that there has been an intervention operation in which the driver operates the steering unit based on a deviation between a target steering angle in the autonomous driving and an actual steering angle based on an operation amount detected by the detection unit.

  • Publication number: 20230356749
    Abstract: A vehicle travel control device executes trajectory following control to make the vehicle follow a target trajectory. A delay time represents control delay of the trajectory following control. A delay compensation time is at least a part of the delay time. The trajectory following control includes: displacement estimation processing that estimates a displacement of the vehicle in the delay compensation time; and delay compensation processing that corrects a deviation between the vehicle and the target trajectory based on the estimated displacement to compensate the control delay. The displacement estimation processing is effective in an effective period and ineffective in an ineffective period. When the ineffective period is included in the delay time of the trajectory following control, the displacement estimation processing is executed in a temporary mode by using sensor-detected information in the effective period without using the sensor-detected information in the ineffective period.
