A control system for an autonomous driving vehicle comprises an operation device configured to be operated by a driver; a notification device configured to give notification to the driver; and an electronic control unit. Autonomous driving is performed. When the driver operates the operation device during autonomous driving, autonomous driving is terminated and vehicle driving is switched to manual driving. Further, when the driver should be requested to terminate autonomous driving during autonomous driving, the notification device is controlled to first notify a request for preparing for manual driving to the driver and then notify a request for terminating autonomous driving to the driver.

Control system for and control method of autonomous driving vehicle

A control system for an autonomous driving vehicle is provided with a notification devicefor giving notification to a driver and an electronic control unit. Autonomous driving is performed and an autonomous driving reliability value expressing a degree of reliability of autonomous driving is calculated during autonomous driving. If the autonomous driving reliability value is equal to or smaller than a predetermined preparation request value, the notification device is controlled to notify a request for preparing for manual driving to the driver.

A control system for an autonomous driving vehicle is provided with an information provision deviceconfigured to provide a driver with information and an operation request part configured to control the information provision device to provide the driver with information during autonomous driving to thereby request a predetermined operation to the driver. The operation request part is provided with a margin time calculation part configured to calculate a margin time until a timing at which the driver should start the operation when the operation should be requested to the driver and an information provision control part configured to provide the driver with information differing according to the margin time.

A system for presenting information to an occupant of a vehicle mounted with an autonomous driving system, includes: a display unit configured to display the information; a display control unit configured to cause the display unit to display information in any one of display modes among a setting status display mode in which setting information is displayed, an operation status display mode in which travel information is displayed, and a recognition status display mode in which recognition result information of the autonomous driving system is displayed; and an acquisition unit configured to acquire an occupant's display mode switching instruction for switching the display mode, wherein the display control unit configured to switch the display mode of the display unit when the acquisition unit acquires the occupant's display mode switching instruction.
