Abstract: A self-driving road vehicle (700) stores an active driving map (721) that includes a data store of route feature data (102) together with a software or control system (720) that periodically selects from the data store and provides to systems (708, 712) on the vehicle (700) the route feature data that are relevant to the vehicle location and the route that the vehicle is following. The route feature data may include a sequential series of road cross-section data objects (602) that represent a real-world roadway being traversed by the vehicle (700). Methods for operating the self-driving road vehicle (700) include providing route feature data from an active driving map, which may include the sequential series of road cross-section data objects (602) that represent the real-world roadway being traversed.

Abstract: This invention reliably prevents interference between travelling vehicles in a curved section, and makes it possible for travelling vehicles to efficiently travel in a curved section. A ground controller in a travelling vehicle system stores travel permissions for a curved section that are given to travelling vehicles, and deletes the travel permissions when the travelling vehicles leave the curved section. When a request for a permission to travel in the curved section is received from a travelling vehicle, the ground controller references the memory, gives a first travel permission if a permission to travel has not been given to another travelling vehicle, and gives a low-order travel permission that permits travel with a lower speed than the first travel permission if a permission to travel has been given to another travelling vehicle.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a driving control apparatus, a driving control method, and a program that can resolve a conflict between a deliberate action and a reflex action during determination of a next action in autonomous driving.
During autonomous driving, a reflex action is determined as a simplified action on the basis of detection results detected by a variety of sensors provided in a vehicle, and a deliberate action ranked higher than a reflex action is determined through elaborate processing. A plurality of resolution modes are made available to deal with a possible conflict between the reflex action and the deliberate action, and by which of the resolution modes the conflict is resolved is specified in advance so that the conflict is resolved by the specified resolution mode. The present disclosure is applicable to motor vehicles that drive autonomously.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method performed by a parking area guiding system (5) of an autonomous vehicle (4) for autonomously guiding the vehicle through a parking area (1) comprising at least one parking space (6), along at least a segment (21) of a predefined track (2). The track comprises one or several markers (3) continuously and/or intermittently arranged on a floor and/or the ground of the parking area. The parking area guiding system detects, by means of a sensor unit (10) comprised in the parking area guiding system, at least one selected marker (31) associated with a selected segment (211) of the track. The selected marker comprises a guiding indicator (311) indicating a vehicle guiding instruction for the selected segment. The parking area guiding system furthermore autonomously guides, by means of a guiding unit (11) comprised in the parking area guiding system, the autonomous vehicle along the selected segment based on the guiding indicator. The disclosure also relates to a parking area guiding system in accordance with the foregoing, a vehicle comprising such a parking area guiding system, as well as method of providing the above mentioned markers. By detecting markers which are continuously and/or intermittently arranged on the floor and/or the ground, guiding indicators of said markers indicating guiding instructions for the vehicle along the track are detectable, and subsequently interpretable, in a convenient manner.

Abstract: An autonomous driving system (100; 200; 300; 400; 500) performing autonomous driving of a vehicle, includes a vehicle position acquisition device (11) acquiring a position of the vehicle on a map, a vehicle state acquisition device (13) acquiring a vehicle state of the vehicle, an occupant state acquisition device (14) acquiring an occupant state of the vehicle, a destination candidate database (6) storing destination candidate data including a destination candidate and the occupant state correlated with the destination candidate; and an electronic control unit (10; 30; 40; 50; 60). The electronic control unit (10; 30; 40; 50; 60) determines whether or not the vehicle is in a boarding completion state based on the vehicle state and the occupant state, and sets a destination of the vehicle in autonomous driving based on the position of the vehicle on the map, the occupant state, and the destination candidate data in a case where electronic control unit (10; 30; 40; 50; 60) determines that the vehicle is in the boarding completion state.

Abstract: An operator uses a remote operation apparatus to remotely operate an operated vehicle. The remote operation apparatus includes a position information processor which, based on vehicle position information indicating a current position of the operated vehicle and delay information indicating a delay time required for information transmission between the operated vehicle and the remote operation apparatus, generates first position information indicating a first predicted position of the operated vehicle from the current position of the operated vehicle considering the delay time; based on obstacle position information indicating a current position of at least one obstacle around the operated vehicle acquired by the operated vehicle and the delay information, generates second position information indicating a second predicted position of the at least one obstacle from the time of the current position of the obstacle considering the delay time; and outputs the first and second position information.

Abstract: A social driving style learning framework or system for autonomous vehicles is utilized, which can dynamically learn the social driving styles from surrounding vehicles and adopt the driving style as needed. Each of the autonomous vehicles within a particular driving area is equipped with the driving style learning system to perceive the driving behaviors of the surrounding vehicles to derive a set of driving style elements. Each autonomous vehicle transmits the driving style elements to a centralized remote server. The server aggregates the driving style elements collected from the autonomous vehicles to determine a driving style corresponding to that particular driving area. The server transmits the driving style back to each of the autonomous vehicles. The autonomous vehicles can then decide whether to adopt the driving style, for example, to follow the traffic flow with the rest of the vehicles nearby.

Abstract: A drive planning processor (21) is provided which plans a driving operation plan for a subject vehicle (V1) traveling on a route. The drive planning processor (21) sets one or more candidate stop positions for the subject vehicle (V1) to make a stop, using determination results for relationships between the subject vehicle (V1) and a plurality of events which the subject vehicle encounters in a time-series manner when traveling on a first route. The one or more candidate stop positions are set for respective events. The drive planning processor (21) plans a driving operation plan for a scene which the subject vehicle (V1) encounters using determination results for relationships between the subject vehicle (V1) and the plurality of events which the subject vehicle (V1) encounters at the candidate stop positions.
