Vehicle remote instruction system
In a vehicle remote instruction system, a remote commander issues a remote instruction relating to travel of an autonomous driving vehicle based on sensor information from an external sensor that detects an external environment of the autonomous driving vehicle. The vehicle remote instruction system sets a range of information to be transmitted to the remote commander among the sensor information detected by the external sensor, as a limited information range, based on the external situation or an external situation obtained based on map information and a trajectory of the autonomous driving vehicle.
1. A vehicle control device comprising:
an electronic control unit configured to:
recognize an external situation based on a captured image of a camera that detects an external environment of a vehicle;
wherein when the vehicle is starting after arriving at a destination and completing getting off of an occupant, the electronic control unit is configured to:
select a first sensor that can detect an entire circumference of the vehicle;
extract first detection information detected by the first sensor within a first predetermined range;
transmit a first request for remote instruction to a remote commander and the extracted first detection information detected by the first sensor; and
control travel of the vehicle by a first remote instruction relating to the travel of the vehicle provided from the remote commander based on the extracted first detection information detected by the first sensor; and
wherein when the occupant is getting off the vehicle, the electronic control unit is configured to:
select a second sensor that can detect information in front of a door of the vehicle, the second sensor is different from the first sensor;
extract second detection information detected by the second sensor within a second predetermined range different from the first predetermined range;
transmit a second request for remote instruction to the remote commander and the extracted second detection information detected by the second sensor; and
control travel of the vehicle by a second remote instruction relating to the travel of the vehicle provided from the remote commander based on the extracted second detection information detected by the second sensor.
2. A vehicle control method performed by a vehicle control device configured to:
recognize an external situation based on a captured image of a camera that detects an external environment of a vehicle;
when the vehicle is starting after arriving at a destination and completing getting off of an occupant:
select a first sensor that can detect an entire circumference of the vehicle;
extract first detection information detected by the first sensor within a first predetermined range;
transmit a first request for remote instruction to a remote commander and the extracted first detection information detected by the first sensor; and
control travel of the vehicle by a first remote instruction relating to the travel of the vehicle provided from the remote commander based on the extracted first detection information detected by the first sensor; and
when the occupant is getting off the vehicle:
select a second sensor that can detect information in front of a door of the vehicle, the second sensor is different from the first sensor;
extract sensor detection information detected by the second sensor within a second predetermined range different from the first predetermined range;
transmit a second request for remote instruction to the remote commander and the extracted second detection information detected by the second sensor; and
control travel of the vehicle by a second remote instruction relating to the travel of the vehicle provided from the remote commander based on the extracted second detection information detected by the second sensor.
3. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium configured to:
store a vehicle control program operating an electronic control unit of a vehicle control device configured to recognize an external situation based on a captured image of a camera that detects an external environment of a vehicle;
when the vehicle is starting after arriving at a destination and completing getting off of an occupant:
select a first sensor that can detect an entire circumference of the vehicle;
extract first detection information detected by the first sensor within a first predetermined range;
transmit a first request for remote instruction to a remote commander and the extracted first detection information detected by the first sensor; and
control travel of the vehicle by a first remote instruction relating to the travel of the vehicle provided from the remote commander based on the extracted first detection information detected by the first sensor; and
when the occupant is getting off the vehicle:
select a second sensor that can detect information in front of a door of the vehicle, the second sensor is different from the first sensor;
extract sensor detection information detected by the second sensor within a second predetermined range different from the first predetermined range;
transmit a second request for remote instruction to the remote commander and the extracted second detection information detected by the second sensor; and
control travel of the vehicle by a second remote instruction relating to the travel of the vehicle provided from the remote commander based on the extracted second detection information detected by the second sensor.
