Abstract: A motion manager mounted on a vehicle includes a processor. The processor receives, from an application that has determined that another object will collide with the vehicle, a motion request indicating that an additional braking force is needed, when the vehicle is stopped. The processor generates an instruction value for causing a brake device to generate a greater braking force than before the motion request is received, when the motion request indicating that the additional braking force is needed is received.

Abstract: A motion manager that is mounted on a vehicle includes a processor and a memory. The processor receives a motion request that corresponds to an application from individual applications.

The memory stores, in advance, type information of an actuator to be controlled by the brake control unit. The processor generates the instruction value of the operation request using the type information.

Abstract: A travel controller executes a first correction process on a request value when the vehicle is traveling on an uphill road, and executes a second correction process on the request value when the vehicle is traveling on a downhill road. The first correction process corrects the request value such that the traveling speed is higher than that in a case in which the first correction process is not executed. The second correction process corrects the request value such that the traveling speed is lower than that in a case in which the second correction process is not executed. If hard braking of the vehicle is requested during execution of the first correction process, the travel controller sets a correction amount of the request value to a lower value than that in a case in which hard braking of the vehicle is not requested.

Abstract: A vehicle controller includes a controlling unit. The controlling unit calculates a feedback control amount based on a deviation between a target acceleration of a vehicle and an actual acceleration of the vehicle. The controlling unit executes a feedback control of a driving device and a braking device by using the feedback control amount, such that the deviation decreases. A state in which only the driving device, of the driving device and the braking device, operates is a first state. A state in which at least the braking device, of the driving device and the braking device, operates is a second state. When switched from the first state to the second state, the controlling unit calculates the feedback control amount such that the deviation permitted in the feedback control is greater than the deviation prior to a start of switching from the first state to the second state.

The vehicle controller sets, to a value that corresponds to the second arbitration request value, a command value sent to an actuator that operates to adjust the traveling speed.
