  • Patent number: 11338803
    Abstract: An ECU of an automated drive device determines a future traveling track for a vehicle using a first straight line that extends in a forward direction of the vehicle, a second straight line that extends along a second course, and a curved track that extends between a first predetermined point on the first straight line and a second predetermined point on the second straight line. After determination of the future traveling track, the vehicle turns to the right in an intersection during actual traveling on the traveling track, if a median strip is present in a course of the vehicle, a changed track is calculated so as to avoid interference of the vehicle with the median strip.

  • Publication number: 20200298843
    Abstract: A vehicle control device includes: a recognizer configured to recognize a surrounding situation of an own vehicle; and a driving controller configured to perform at least one of speed control and steering control of the own vehicle based on the surrounding situation recognized by the recognizer. The driving controller causes the own vehicle to continuously travel forward when the recognizer recognizes that an obstacle and an oncoming vehicle are in a travel direction of the own vehicle and the recognizer recognizes that the oncoming vehicle is moving in a direction away from the own vehicle in a vehicle width direction.
