  • Publication number: 20210279740
    Abstract: A system for handling a lost item in an autonomous vehicle and a server. The vehicle includes a vision sensor configured to respectively capture a first vehicle interior image and a second vehicle interior image when a passenger boards and alights from the vehicle. The vehicle is configured to transmit the captured first vehicle interior image and second vehicle interior image to the server. The server is configured to compare the first vehicle interior image with the second vehicle interior image and transmit lost item information to the passenger when the lost item in the vehicle is sensed.

  • Publication number: 20210179145
    Abstract: An apparatus for controlling a vehicle capable of performing autonomous driving is provided. The apparatus includes an autonomous driving device that executes the autonomous driving and generates a transition demand when it is impossible to execute the autonomous driving. A driving controller performs a minimum risk maneuver (MRM) of applying a deceleration pattern differently depending on a driving environment of the vehicle, when the transition demand is generated, but when driving manipulation by a driver does not occur. A subsequent safety ensuring function is performed according to the MRM for the driver to recognize the MRM, and a drive mode of the vehicle is changed to a drive mode with a rapid response speed to acceleration or steering.

  • Publication number: 20210174616
    Abstract: An apparatus for determining failure of a vehicle is provided. The apparatus includes a sensor configured to obtain autonomous driving information, and a controller configured to compare the autonomous driving information obtained during autonomous driving with a determination criterion set as failure sound information and to determine whether the failure occurs, based on the comparison result.
