Abstract
A method for controlling a path of an autonomous driving system includes: determining whether or not an obstacle and an autonomously driven vehicle will collide when a sensor detects an obstacle in a proximity of the vehicle while the vehicle is being autonomously driven; generating a plurality of path candidates within a path generation region when it is determined that the detected obstacle and the vehicle will collide; determining whether or not an expansion of the path generation region is possible, expanding the path generation region when it is possible, and regenerating the plurality of path candidates within the expanded path generation region when there is no path candidate in which the collision between the obstacle and the vehicle does not occur; and selecting a path from among the path candidates in which the collision between the obstacle and the vehicle does not occur.
