    Abstract: An autonomous driving device includes a first map including a first content and a second content associated with positions respectively, a second map including the first content associated with the position and in which the second content is not a recording target, and a control unit performing the autonomous driving. When the autonomous driving is performed using the first map, the control unit determines information necessary for the autonomous driving using a first method based on the first content and the second content. When the autonomous driving is performed using the second map, the control unit determines the information necessary for the autonomous driving using a method same as the first method based on the first content corresponding to a second position recorded in the second map and information indicating that the second content corresponding to the second position recorded in the second map is not present.

    Abstract: In step S11, a color image CIMG is acquired. In step S12, a distance image DIMG is acquired. In step S13, the color image CIMG is projected onto the distance image DIMG. An alignment of the color image CIMG and the distance image DIMG is performed prior to the projection of the color image CIMG. In step S14, it is determined whether or not a basic condition is satisfied. In S15, it is determined whether or not a special condition is satisfied. If a judgement result of the steps S14 or S15 is positive, then in step S16 a first data point and a second data point on the distance image DIMG are associated. If bot of the judgement results of steps S14 and S15 are negative, data points are not associated in step S17.

    Abstract: An object recognition apparatus include a storage device and a processor. The storage device stores peripheral information and tolerance information. The tolerance information is information in which the degree of tolerance for the undetected object is represented for each class of the object. The peripheral information is acquired by a sensor device provided in the vehicle. The processor performs object recognition process for recognizing an object around the vehicle. In the object recognition process, the processor identifies the object and its class to be detected based on the peripheral information, and calculates the likelihood that is a parameter representing the probability of detection of the object. Further, the processor calculates a likelihood threshold corresponding to the object based on the tolerance information, and determines whether to output the identification result of the object based on the comparative between the likelihood and the likelihood threshold.
