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.

Abstract: The steering device is configured to automatically perform a steering operation of a steering wheel. The steering device is configured to determine that the steering operation of the steering wheel has been performed by the driver based on the steering angle of the steering wheel and the target steering angle, at least during a driving mode in which the steering operation of the steering wheel is automatically performed, and when it is determined that the steering operation of the steering wheel has been performed by the driver, change the operation characteristics of the steering wheel so that the steering force required when the driver steers the steering wheel is reduced compared to before the determination.

Abstract: An autonomous driving control device includes a steering determination unit that determines whether a driver has operated a steering unit while driving with an actuator controlled in a first control mode, an operation speed calculation unit that calculates at least one of a deviation speed, which is the change rate of deviation between a target steering angle during autonomous driving and an actual steering angle, and a steering speed, which is the change rate of the actual steering angle, and a control mode switching unit that, when it is determined that the driver has operated the steering unit, changes an instruction value to be output to the actuator from a first target control amount in the first control mode to a second target control amount in the second control mode at a change rate corresponding to at least one of the deviation speed and the steering speed described above.
