Moving body control apparatus, moving body, and moving body control method
A moving body control apparatus includes a cancel control section performing control to cancel a lane change when a first cancel condition and a second cancel condition for cancelling the lane change are satisfied. When the first cancel condition is satisfied with the grip of an occupant on a manipulator being a prescribed level or greater, if a distance in a vehicle width direction between a moving body and a lane marker is a first distance threshold value or greater, the cancel control section judges that the second cancel condition is satisfied and cancels the lane change, and when the first cancel condition is satisfied with the grip being less than the prescribed level, if the distance is not less than a second distance threshold value greater than the first distance threshold value, the cancel control section judges that the second cancel condition is satisfied and cancels the lane change.
1. A moving body control apparatus comprising one or more processors that execute computer-executable instructions stored in a memory, wherein the one or more processors execute the computer-executable instructions to cause the moving body control apparatus to:
acquire vicinity information of a moving body;
control travel of the moving body based on the vicinity information;
control a lane change of the moving body;
judge a state of a grip of an occupant of the moving body on a manipulator configured to steer the moving body;
cause the moving body to start moving to a target lane as a destination of the lane change if a situation in the target lane is different from a predetermined condition affecting the lane change or possibly affecting the lane change; and
in a case where the situation in the target lane turns into the predetermined condition after the moving body starts to move to the target lane and the moving body is present in a predetermined area with respect to the target lane, cause the moving body to cancel the lane change if a degree of the grip of the occupant on the manipulator is equal to or greater than a first degree and continue the lane change if the degree of the grip of the occupant on the manipulator is less than the first degree,
wherein the predetermined area extends from a position at which a distance in a vehicle width direction between the moving body and a lane marker is equal to or greater than a first distance threshold value to a position at which the distance is less than a second distance threshold value, which is greater than the first distance threshold value.
2. The moving body control apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the first distance threshold value is variable according to velocity of the moving body.
3. The moving body control apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the second distance threshold value is variable according to velocity of the moving body.
4. The moving body control apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the first cancel condition is 0.
5. A moving body comprising the moving body control apparatus according to claim 1 .
6. A moving body control method comprising:
controlling a lane change of a moving body based on vicinity information of the moving body;
judging a state of a grip of an occupant of the moving body on a manipulator configured to steer the moving body,
causing the moving body to start moving to a target lane as a destination of the lane change if a situation in the target lane is different from a predetermined condition affecting the lane change or possibly affecting the lane change; and
in a case where the situation in the target lane turns into the predetermined condition after the moving body starts to move to the target lane and the moving body is present in a predetermined area with respect to the target lane, causing the moving body to cancel the lane change if a degree of the grip of the occupant on the manipulator is equal to or greater than a first degree and continue the lane change if the degree of the grip of the occupant on the manipulator is less than the first degree,
wherein the predetermined area extends from a position at which a distance in a vehicle width direction between the moving body and a lane marker is equal to or greater than a first distance threshold value to a position at which the distance is less than a second distance threshold value, which is greater than the first distance threshold value.
