Abstract: An external-world recognition system includes: a satellite positioning device that measures the position of a vehicle by receiving radio waves transmitted from artificial satellites; a yaw rate sensor that detects or estimates the movement of the vehicle; a camera that acquires external-world information about the surroundings of the vehicle; and an external-world recognition device that recognizes external-world information considering a reference direction as the center. The external-world recognition device corrects a detection value from the yaw rate sensor on the basis of time-series positions of the vehicle as measured by the satellite positioning device and corrects the reference direction on the basis of the corrected detection value.

Abstract: A surroundings recognition unit recognizes the road environment and traffic participants around the host vehicle. A condition satisfaction determination unit determines whether or not first to fifth conditions are satisfied, on the basis of recognition results from the surroundings recognition unit. When causing the host vehicle to travel in a lane of a traveling road adjacent to the edge of the traveling road, a control unit changes travel control content and/or notification control content relating to automated driving, depending on whether or not the first to fifth conditions are satisfied.

Abstract: This vehicle control device comprises an autonomous driving control unit which automatically controls the stopping of a vehicle. If it is determined by a crossing determination unit that there is no crossing, the autonomous driving control unit controls the stopping of the vehicle so that the vehicle is stopped at a standard target stop position corresponding to a stop line on the basis of the positional information of the stop line, whereas if it is determined by the crossing determination unit that there is a crossing, the autonomous driving control unit controls the stopping of the vehicle so that the vehicle is stopped at a position before the standard target stop position on the basis of the positional information of the stop line.

Abstract: A traffic signal recognition unit recognizes a traffic signal of a traffic signal machine to be next followed on the basis of outside information. A traffic participant recognition unit recognizes the motion of a traffic participant on the basis of the outside information. A prediction unit predicts a traffic signal to be followed next on the basis of the motion of traffic participant recognized by the traffic participant recognition unit. A comparison unit compares the traffic signal recognized by the traffic signal recognition unit with the traffic signal predicted by the prediction unit. An action planning unit makes an action plan of a host vehicle on the basis of the comparison result of the comparison unit. A control unit carries out prescribed control on the basis of the action plan.

If it is determined by a crossing determination unit that there is no crossing, the autonomous driving control unit controls the stopping of the vehicle so that the vehicle is stopped at a standard target stop position corresponding to a stop line on the basis of the positional information of the stop line, whereas if it is determined by the crossing determination unit that there is a crossing, the autonomous driving control unit controls the stopping of the vehicle so that the vehicle is stopped at a position before the standard target stop position on the basis of the positional information of the stop line.

Abstract: A vehicle operation setting unit determines vehicle operations of a host vehicle. When a course change is performed, the vehicle operation setting unit sets values (at least one of target values for a velocity, an acceleration/deceleration, a curvature, a yaw rate, a steering angle, and a lateral G force) to be less than or equal to upper limit values thereof. The vehicle operation setting unit causes the upper limit values to differ between a case in which a preceding vehicle is recognized by an external environment recognition unit, and a case in which a preceding vehicle is not recognized by the external environment recognition unit.
