Abstract
In an autonomous driving control apparatus, a control unit controls autonomous driving that causes a vehicle to travel along a scheduled travel route. A storage unit stores driving-operation modules. Each of the driving-operation modules is comprised of a modularized set of a sequence of input/output operations used by a corresponding driving operation carried out by the autonomous driving. The control unit determines the scheduled travel route, and determines, in accordance with the scheduled travel route, at least one selected driving-operation module from the driving-operation modules stored in the storage unit. The control unit performs the at least one selected driving-operation module to thereby cause the vehicle to perform the autonomous driving.
