Disclosed is a control authority transfer apparatus of an autonomous vehicle, including a memory storing data on a plurality of users, and at least one processor setting driving operation priorities based on the data, wherein, in the state in which at least a part of autonomous driving control has failed, upon determining that a main user is in a state of being incapable of performing driving operation, the processor selects a first sub-user among a plurality of sub-users as a driving operation user according to the driving operation priorities, and selects a first device matching the first sub-user as a driving operation device.

Control authority transfer apparatus and method of autonomous vehicle

A method for transmitting sensing information of an autonomous vehicle for remote driving in automated vehicle & highway systems includes: receiving information on a driving route of the autonomous vehicle from a server; acquiring sensing information of a surrounding environment; setting priority values of sensors for transmission of the sensing information on the basis of a driving direction determined by the information on the driving route; setting a value for a degree of danger of a sensed object on the basis of the sensing information; and setting a transmission period of the sensing information on the basis of the value for the degree of danger. Accordingly, sensing information required for a driving situation can be efficiently transmitted. Further, one or more an autonomous vehicle, a user terminal and a server of the present invention can be associated with an artificial intelligence module, an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) robot, an augmented reality (AR) device, a virtual reality (VR) device, a device related to 5G service, and the like.

Method for transmitting sensing information for remote driving in automated vehicle and highway system and apparatus therefor

An autonomous driving control method for a vehicle includes: converting a driving mode into a restricted area autonomous driving mode in which memory access, communication with a network, and information acquisition are restricted in a restricted area; transmitting a destination in the restricted area and an authentication key to a server by an autonomous driving system; checking validity of the authentication key, and generating a global path to the destination in the restricted area when the authentication key is valid, by the server; encrypting the global path and transmitting it with a decryption key to the autonomous driving system by the server; and restoring the encrypted global path using the decryption key by the autonomous driving system. Autonomous vehicles of the present disclosure may be associated with artificial intelligence modules, drones (unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs)), robots, augmented reality (AR) devices, virtual reality (VR) devices, devices related to 5G service, etc.

A vehicle control device for a vehicle includes: a communication unit configured to receive vehicle-to-everything (V2X) information, the V2X information including position data; and a control unit configured to generate a control signal associated with driving of the vehicle based on the V2X information. The control unit generates the control signal associated with driving of the vehicle by: determining an expected driving route of the vehicle; based on the determination of the expected driving route of the vehicle, determining a region of interest; and based on the determination of the region of interest, selectively receiving first V2X information associated with the region of interest by: transmitting, through the communication unit, a request for transmission of the first V2X information associated with the region of interest to communication-enabled devices; and receiving, through the communication unit, the first V2X information transmitted by the communication-enabled devices.

Vehicle control device mounted on vehicle and method for controlling the vehicle

A method for operating a vehicle that includes: generating, by at least one processor, a start trigger signal based on first driving situation information; in response to the start trigger signal, performing, by the at least one processor, a storage operation that stores in at least one memory (i) driving manipulation data that is generated based on user input from a user of the vehicle, and (ii) navigation data that is generated corresponding to the driving manipulation data; generating, by the at least one processor, an end trigger signal based on second driving situation information; and in response to the end trigger signal, stopping, by the at least one processor, the storage operation that stores the driving manipulation data and the navigation data is disclosed.

Vehicle driving control apparatus and vehicle driving method

A driver assistance apparatus includes an object detection sensor configured to acquire data in a driving direction of a vehicle or around the vehicle. The driver assistance apparatus also includes a processor that is configured to detect an object based on the acquired data and determine, based on the acquired data, a portion of the detected object that is expected to be impacted by the vehicle. The processor is also configured to provide, based on the determined portion of the detected object that is expected to be impacted by the vehicle, a height control signal that controls a suspension of the vehicle to adjust a height of at least a portion of the vehicle.

Driver assistance apparatus for vehicle and vehicle having the same

A driver assistance apparatus and a vehicle including the same are disclosed. The driver assistance apparatus includes a stereo camera, a memory to store road surface data regarding a state of a road surface classified into a dry state, a wet state, a snow covered state, and an icy state, and a processor to classify the state of the road surface as any one of the dry state, the wet state, the snow covered state, and the icy state based on stereo images received from the stereo camera and the road surface data. Consequently, it is possible to recognize a current road surface state.
