Vehicle driving controller, system including the same, and method thereof

1. A vehicle driving controller, comprising:

a processor configured to:

apply a different warning level depending on at least one of a driving situation or a user state during autonomous driving; and

provide a notification of a control authority transition demand to a user; and

a storage configured to store information regarding the driving situation and the user state, and information regarding the different warning level,

wherein the processor is configured to:

apply the different warning level depending on an expected time of collision risk or an expected time of a deviation of an operational design domain (ODD); and

determine different minimum risk maneuvers (MRMs) depending on the applied different warning level when a control authority is not handed over to the user after providing the notification of the control authority transition demand depending on the applied different warning level.

2. The vehicle driving controller of claim 1 , wherein the driving situation comprises:

whether there is the collision risk within a predetermined amount of time; and

whether there is the deviation of the ODD that is configured to perform the autonomous driving.

3. The vehicle driving controller of claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to:

track a static object and a dynamic object;

generate a static grid map and a dynamic object list; and

extract map information.

4. The vehicle driving controller of claim 3 , wherein the processor is configured to:

generate a driving trajectory of a host vehicle;

determine whether there is intersection between the driving trajectory of the host vehicle and the static grid map or whether there is intersection between the driving trajectory of the host vehicle and a trajectory of a dynamic object of the dynamic object list; and

determine whether there is collision.

5. The vehicle driving controller of claim 3 , wherein the processor is configured to:

determine a deviation time of the ODD and a deviation type of the ODD based on the map information.

6. The vehicle driving controller of claim 5 , wherein the deviation type of the ODD comprises:

when the host vehicle is capable of travelling for a predetermined amount of time after the deviation of the ODD; and

when the host vehicle is incapable of travelling after the deviation of the ODD.

7. The vehicle driving controller of claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to:

determine at least one of the user state including a hands-off state, an eyes-off state, and a mind-off state.

8. The vehicle driving controller of claim 7 , wherein the processor is configured to:

change and apply a notification reference time depending on the user state.

9. The vehicle driving controller of claim 8 , wherein the processor is configured to:

decrease the notification reference time in an order of the hands-off state, the eyes-off state, and the mind-off state.

10. The vehicle driving controller of claim 7 , wherein the processor is configured to:

increase the warning level in the order of the hands-off state, the eyes-off state, and the mind-off state.

11. The vehicle driving controller of claim 7 , wherein the processor is configured to:

determine whether the user state is the eyes-off state or the mind-off state when no driving risk is present in the driving situation;

determine the warning level based on the determined user state;

provide the notification of the control authority transition demand depending on the determined warning level; and

increase the warning level when a predetermined amount of time elapses.

12. The vehicle driving controller of claim 1 , wherein applied different the warning level comprises:

level 1 configured to provide a level 1 visual warning;

level 2 configured to provide a level 2 visual warning and a level 2 audible warning;

level 3 configured to:

provide a level 3 visual warning in a color that is different from a color of the level 1 visual warning and a color of the level 2 visual warning; and

provide a level 3 audible warning that is louder than the level 2 audible warning; and

level 4 configured to:

provide a level 4 visual warning in a color that is different from the color of the level 1 visual warning, the color of the level 2 visual warning, and the color of the level 3 visual warning;

provide a level 4 audible warning with a highest sound magnitude; and

perform an emergency call mode operation.

13. The vehicle driving controller of claim 1 , wherein the processor is configured to:

perform a vehicle control depending on the MRMs.

14. The vehicle driving controller of claim 13 , wherein the MRMs comprise at least one of a constant-speed driving control after decelerating at a constant speed, a stop control, or a shoulder stop control.

15. The vehicle driving controller of claim 1 , further comprising:

a warning device configured to provide a warning corresponding to the applied different warning level.

16. The vehicle driving controller of claim 15 , wherein the warning device is configured to:

provide at least one of a visual warning, an audible warning, or an emergency call mode.

17. A vehicle driving control method, comprising:

determining at least one of a driving situation or a user state during autonomous driving;

applying a different warning level depending on at least one of the driving situation or the user state, wherein the different warning level is applied depending on an expected time of collision risk or an expected time of deviation of an operational design domain (ODD);

providing a notification of a control authority transition demand to a user depending on the applied different warning level; and

determining different minimum risk maneuvers (MRMs) depending on the applied different warning level when a control authority is not handed over to the user after providing the notification of the control authority transition demand.

18. The method of claim 17 , wherein the method further comprises:

performing a vehicle control depending on the MRMs.

19. The method of claim 17 , wherein the driving situation comprises:

the collision risk within a predetermined amount of time; and

the deviation of the ODD that is configured to perform the autonomous driving.
