Abstract
ADK includes a computer and a communication module. VP includes a non-redundant control system that performs a non-redundant control function, a first bus, a second bus, a first VCIB that is configured to be communicable with the communication module via the first bus and provides a control instruction to the non-redundant control system in accordance with a non-redundant control command for controlling the non-redundant control system from ADK, a second VCIB that is configured to be communicable with the communication module via the second bus, and a third bus that connects the first VCIB and the second VCIB. When the communication via the first bus is abnormal, the computer controls the communication module to send a non-redundant control command to the first VCIB via the second bus and the third bus.
