Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This project developed an automatic driving system in a local area whereby the vehicle motion is controlled by the site infrastructure. In the proposed control system, the vehicles have to be equipped with just communication devices for automatic driving, because the sensing and motion control is performed by the infrastructure. This feature reduces the vehicle cost of automatic driving, thus enhancing the social acceptance of automatic driving vehicles. In the research, development of algorithms for vehicle recognition by infrastructure, enhancement of reliability and evaluation by demonstration experiments had been carried out. The research results clarified the possibility of stable vehicle guidance by infrastructure at a speed of less than 15km/h using a camera or LiDAR sensors. The result of questionnairies by those who experienced the demonstration experiments clarified the usefulness of the proposed system and showed that it suits the sense of cost for automatic driving.
