Abstract
When an abnormality is detected in a generating function of a first target trajectory included in a calculation unit that generates the first target trajectory, failover processing is performed to switch a basic target trajectory used to generate a final target trajectory from the first target trajectory to a second target trajectory. In the failover processing, the first target trajectory generated before the detection of the abnormality of the generating function is updated based on an estimated movement amount of the vehicle during the failover processing. Then, a position where at least the target position of the second target trajectory generated after the detection of the abnormality and the target position of the first target trajectory after the update match is set as a switchover position of the basic target trajectory.
