    Abstract: A traffic signal display estimation system recognizes, based on the position information of a vehicle and a traffic signal information, a traffic signal included in a camera image, identifies a traffic signal display for each recognized traffic signal, and calculates, for each traffic signal, a first evaluation value indicating the certainty of the identified traffic signal display. The system integrates, based on a traffic-signal-to-traffic-signal relational information, a forward traffic signal that is ahead of the travelling direction and that the vehicle should follow and a traffic signal correlated with the forward traffic signal in terms of the traffic signal display, among a plurality of recognized traffic signals. When there is an inconsistency in traffic signal displays identified between a plurality of integrated traffic signals, the system determines a first estimated traffic signal display of the forward traffic signal, based on the first evaluation value for each traffic signal.

    Abstract: An autonomous driving device includes an autonomous driving release unit configured to release the autonomous driving control if an override operation is input during the execution of the autonomous driving control which is based on a first travel plan, a travel plan setting unit configured to set a second travel plan different from the first travel plan after the input of the override operation, an autonomous driving restore determination unit configured to determine whether or not to restore the autonomous driving control with the autonomous driving control which is based on the second travel plan after the input of the override operation, and a vehicle control unit configured to maintain the manual driving and prohibit automatic starting of the autonomous driving control until after a predetermined time elapses after the autonomous driving control is released by the autonomous driving release unit and when the autonomous driving restore determination unit determines not to restore the autonomous driving control.

    Abstract: A vehicle control device includes a map database and at least one electronic control unit. The electronic control unit is configured to calculate a reference arrival position based on a target time or a target distance. The at least one electronic control unit is configured to determine, according to the map information or the external situation at the reference arrival position, as a target arrival position, a position where the vehicle arrives on the potential route in a time different from the target time or over a distance different from the target distance. The at least one electronic control unit is configured to calculate a transition route from the road position to the target arrival position, and generate the target route by connecting the transition route and the potential route following the target arrival position.

    Abstract: A system includes an acquisition unit that acquires an operation amount or a duration count, and a switching unit that switches a driving state. The switching unit switches the driving state to the cooperative driving state when the operation amount is equal to or greater than an intervention threshold and less than a start threshold or the duration count is equal to or greater than a first threshold and less than a second threshold during the autonomous driving state, switches the driving state to the autonomous driving state when the operation amount is less than the intervention threshold or the duration count is less than the first threshold during the cooperative driving state, and switches the driving state to the manual driving state when the operation amount is equal to or greater than the start threshold or the duration count is equal to or greater than the second threshold.

    Abstract: An autonomous driving control device is capable of starting an autonomous driving control without an operation of a driver and reducing a possibility that the driver can not start manual driving. An autonomous driving control is switched to manual driving when a determination section determines that the amount of operation by the driver is equal to or greater than a first threshold, before a predetermined time elapses since the autonomous driving control is automatically started. An autonomous driving control is switched to a manual driving when the determination section determines that the amount of operation by the driver is equal to or greater than a second threshold that is greater than the first threshold, after the predetermined time elapses.
