Abstract
An apparatus for a vehicle comprises a sensor device, memory storing instructions, and a controller linked to both, enabling autonomous driving of a vehicle. The apparatus stores first sensor data associated with autonomous driving in a buffer, transferring it to a storage device based on a preliminary condition. The apparatus also temporarily stores second sensor data associated with the first data. Depending on a trigger condition, the apparatus transfers second data to the storage device while maintaining the first data, or removes the first data if the trigger condition is not met.
