Abstract
A self-driving vehicle route planning system detects and transforms environment information of a host vehicle into an aerial view including the coordinate information of coordinate points to recognize and mark traffic lane boundaries, traffic lanes, and other vehicles therein, calculates central points of the traffic lanes, and then, calculates a speed of a front vehicle according to its positions and works out a predicted route thereof. If the predicted route is the same as a driving route of the host vehicle, the front vehicle is used as a route reference point to calculate a final route of the host vehicle; if not, the traffic lane boundary is used as a route reference line to calculate the final route. The invention can plan the route merely using a point cloud data, greatly reducing the cost HD map information and storage space.
