PATH UPDATING METHOD FOR COLLISION AVOIDANCE OF AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE AND THE APPARATUS

摘要

PURPOSE: A route updating method for avoiding a collision between autonomous vehicles and an apparatus using the same are provided to avoid the collision by reducing a calculation amount required to avoid the collision. CONSTITUTION: A plurality of 2D radar(LADAR) detects geographic information which includes obstacles arranged near a travel route of an autonomous vehicle. A navigation-processing computer(20) processes position, posture, and velocity information of the autonomous vehicle using navigation information from a compass(23), an inertial navigation system(22), or a global positioning system(21). A 2D LADAR processing computer(30) acquires obstacle information by processing the navigation information from the navigation-processing computer and the geographic information acquired by the 2D LADAR. A path control computer(40) performs a collision avoidance process in a reconfigurable mode after removing a path point by utilizing the obstacle information from the 2D LADAR processing computer.
