(Embodiment 1)
The vehicle driving support system according to the first embodiment of the present invention receives and acquires information through communication with other vehicles, facilities, equipment, etc., for vehicles such as automobiles having an automatic driving function. The operation is automatically controlled based on the information. It should be noted that the vehicle can widely include vehicles that move on the road by rotating wheels by a prime mover, such as automobiles such as passenger cars and trucks, motorcycles, and the like. Further, the level of automatic driving related to these vehicles is not particularly limited. For example, level 1 (acceleration / steering / braking) in a general level classification defined by NHTSA (US Highway Traffic Safety Administration) or the like is used. System 4) to level 4 (full automatic driving in which the driver is not involved in all of acceleration, steering, and braking) that is not actually operated at this time.

<System configuration>
FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an outline of a configuration example of a vehicle driving support system according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. The vehicle driving support system 1 includes devices such as an ECU (Electronic Control Unit) 10 mounted on the vehicle 2, various sensors 20, a drive recorder (vehicle-mounted camera) 30, and a car navigation system 40.

  The ECU 10 is a device that electronically controls the operation of each part of the vehicle 2. For example, the ECU 10 is implemented by hardware including a semiconductor integrated circuit such as a microcomputer (not shown) or software executed by a CPU (Central Processing Unit) (not shown). Each unit includes a communication unit 11 and an operation control unit 12.

  The communication unit 11 has a function of performing general Internet connection by wireless communication (mobile communication, short-range wireless communication, etc.), and performing vehicle-to-vehicle communication and road-to-vehicle communication using a predetermined protocol. In vehicle-to-vehicle communication, information related to the driving situation can be exchanged with another vehicle 2 ′ having the same vehicle-to-vehicle communication function using a predetermined protocol. In addition to the vehicle, the other vehicle 2 ′ includes, for example, a pedestrian holding a device that can communicate with the vehicle 2 using a predetermined protocol for inter-vehicle communication, such as a smartphone or a dedicated device. It shall be possible.

  Further, in road-to-vehicle communication, information relating to the driving situation and traffic situation of the vehicle 2 can be exchanged with the road equipment 3 having a communication function. The road facility 3 may include a building in addition to facilities related to traffic such as signals, road signs, roads, guardrails, and the like. Further, these are not limited to those installed publicly, but may be those installed by the private sector. The data exchanged by road-to-vehicle communication via the road equipment 3 is generated or recorded by, for example, the traffic control system 50 that is an information processing system that collects and manages traffic information and provides it to each vehicle 2. Also good. In addition, the data to be exchanged is not limited to data related to driving conditions, traffic conditions, and the like, and may be data related to driving instructions generated by the instruction unit 51 of the traffic control system 50, for example.

  The driving control unit 12 has a function of operating and controlling driving of the vehicle 2 including automatic driving. You may control operation | movement of apparatuses, such as the communication part 11, the sensor 20, and the drive recorder 30, collectively. In operation control, for example, the control content is appropriately changed based on information acquired through the communication unit 11, the sensor 20, or the like. At this time, as will be described later, for example, the control content may be determined with reference to a rule such as a control rule 13 or a traffic rule 14 set in advance or dynamically in a recording medium such as a memory (not shown). Good.

  The ECU 10 may have other various control functions (not shown) that contribute to the operation of the vehicle 2 (for example, engine control for improving fuel efficiency). FIG. 1 relates to the present embodiment. Only the parts to be described are shown.

  The sensor 20 is a known device that detects various situations related to the vehicle 2. For example, a vehicle speed sensor, an acceleration sensor, a gyro sensor, a temperature sensor, a pressure sensor, a GPS (Global Positioning System) sensor, an infrared sensor, and an optical sensor are used. And so on. Data detected by the sensor 20 is sent to the ECU 10, for example, and can be used when the operation control unit 12 determines the control content or used for route search of the car navigation system 40.

  The drive recorder 30 has a function of acquiring and recording the situation outside or inside the vehicle as a video and audio by a vehicle-mounted camera as a record of driving including when an accident occurs. Here, a commercially available drive recorder can be used as appropriate. Control such as start / end of recording may be instructed from the ECU 10. Regardless of the presence or absence of an instruction or the like, the recording may always be continued.

  The car navigation system 40 is a general car navigation system that performs a route search to a destination in accordance with an instruction from a driver and performs route guidance based on information on the current position of the vehicle 2. The car navigation system 40 provides route guidance to the driver via a display unit (not shown) such as a display installed in the vehicle or an in-vehicle head-up display that projects an image onto the windshield by a projector. Furthermore, it is also possible for the ECU 10 or the like to display other various information related to operation control via this display means.

<Operation control (adjustment between vehicles)>
In order to avoid the occurrence of an accident when it is detected that an accident such as a collision or contact with another vehicle 2 ′ is likely to occur while the vehicle 2 is operating in automatic operation, It is conceivable to perform control such as stopping 2 or changing the course. Here, when the other vehicle 2 ′ or the like of the other party is also automatically driving, it is conceivable that the other vehicle 2 ′ or the like also performs driving control in order to avoid the occurrence of an accident. As a result, for example, it is assumed that accidents may occur due to conflicting avoidance controls, such as both vehicles changing their courses in the same direction. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the avoidance control for avoiding the occurrence of an accident is adjusted in advance by inter-vehicle communication between the vehicle 2 and the other vehicle 2 ′.

  FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an outline of an example of automatic operation control in the present embodiment. Here, as shown in the upper diagram, when the vehicle 2 and the other vehicle 2 ′ are running opposite each other by automatic driving, if the possibility of a collision accident increases, An example in which one (the other vehicle 2 ′ in the example of FIG. 2) changes the course by adjusting the avoidance control and the other (the vehicle 2 in the example of FIG. 2) performs the automatic driving so as to maintain the course as it is. Is shown.

  The lower diagram is a flowchart showing an outline of an example of a flow of processing for adjusting avoidance control by inter-vehicle communication. First, the vehicle 2 establishes a vehicle-to-vehicle communication session using a predetermined protocol with the other vehicle 2 'by the communication unit 11 (S01). Thereafter, information on the driving situation (current position, traveling direction, speed, etc.) and the contents of the control rule 13 are exchanged with other vehicles 2 'through inter-vehicle communication (S02). Then, the driving control unit 12 determines whether or not the vehicle has an adjustment right according to a predetermined rule (S03). The predetermined rule only needs to be a rule that can uniquely identify one of the vehicles. For example, a rule with a smaller vehicle ID, a current position in the north, a faster speed, or the like can be set as appropriate.

  If the own vehicle (vehicle 2) does not have the right to adjust in step S03 (S03: No), it waits for and receives the adjustment result from the other party (other vehicle 2 ') without doing anything in particular (S07). ). When the own vehicle (vehicle 2) has the right to adjust (S03: Yes), based on the information on the driving conditions of both vehicles and the contents of the control rule 13, the both vehicles when the possibility of an accident has increased. The avoidance control is analyzed (S04), and it is determined whether or not they compete (for example, both vehicles change their courses in the same direction) (S05).

  If the avoidance control of both vehicles does not compete in step S05 (S05: No), that is, if the occurrence of an accident can be avoided as it is, the adjustment to the avoidance control is not performed and the other vehicle 2 'is used as the adjustment result. Transmit (S07). When the avoidance control competes (S05: Yes), the contents of the avoidance control of one or both vehicles are adjusted so as not to compete based on a predetermined rule (S06), and the adjustment result is set to other vehicle 2 ′ or the like 2 ′. (S07). For example, if both vehicles change their course in the same direction, the contents of the avoidance control are changed so that the course of one vehicle is changed in the opposite direction.

  The rules on how to change the avoidance control of the vehicle 2 and the other vehicle 2 'are not particularly limited. For example, it is also possible to prioritize the current driving situation with either one as a priority vehicle and change the content of the other avoidance control based on this. At this time, as a parameter used when determining the priority vehicle, for example, the driving situation such as speed may be used, the age and driving years of the driver, the number and attributes of the passengers, the type and model of both vehicles, Acquireable attribute information such as the attributes of both vehicles, the attributes of the current location, etc., such as the road gradient (up or down) and the state of the shoulder (whether there are sidewalks, cliffs, etc.) may be used. In this case, for example, the one where the avoidance control is difficult is determined based on the driving situation and the attribute information, and this is set as the priority vehicle. Moreover, you may make it adjust the content of avoidance control of both vehicles uniformly based on a predetermined rule irrespective of the driving | running state of both vehicles, and various attribute information.

  The changed avoidance control rule may be reflected by overwriting the content set in the control rule 13 (default control content), or temporarily limited to the target other vehicle 2 ′. May be handled as a simple setting.

  FIG. 3 is a diagram showing an outline of another example of the automatic operation control in the present embodiment. Here, as shown in the upper diagram, when one (vehicle 2 in the example of FIG. 3) tries to enter a junction / branch point of a road such as a T-junction or an intersection by automatic operation, the same junction / branch Accidents such as collisions are avoided by unilaterally controlling (stopping or decelerating in the example of FIG. 3) the automatic driving of the other (the other vehicle 2 ′ in the example of FIG. 3) that is about to enter the point by inter-vehicle communication. An example of doing this is shown.

  The lower diagram is a flowchart showing an outline of an example of a flow of processing for controlling the other automatic driving by inter-vehicle communication. First, the vehicle 2 establishes a vehicle-to-vehicle communication session with a predetermined protocol with the other vehicle 2 'by the communication unit 11 (S11). Thereafter, a request for controlling the automatic driving is transmitted to the other vehicle 2 '(S12). Although not shown, the other vehicle 2 'or the like that has received this request responds whether or not the control by the vehicle 2 is permitted based on a predetermined rule.

  The vehicle 2 receives the response from the other vehicle 2 '(S13), and determines whether or not the other vehicle 2' that is the other party permits the control by the vehicle 2 (S14). When the other vehicle 2 'does not allow the control by the vehicle 2 (S14: No), the other vehicle 2' is not controlled. When the control is permitted (S14: Yes), the control content of the automatic driving (for example, stop or decelerate) is transmitted to the other vehicle 2 '(S15). Then, assuming that the other vehicle 2 'is automatically driven based on the control content, the control content of the automatic driving of the own vehicle is changed as necessary (S16). For example, the vehicle enters the junction / branch point without stopping. With respect to the transmission contents in step S15, step S16 may be executed by using, as a trigger, reception of Ack from another vehicle 2 '.

  In the example of FIG. 3, an example of avoiding an accident such as a collision at a merging / branching point is taken as an example, but the present invention can also be applied to control for realizing smooth traffic such as traffic congestion avoidance.

  FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an outline of another example of the automatic operation control in the present embodiment. Here, as shown in the upper diagram, an example of a case where a vehicle 2 and a plurality of subsequent other vehicles 2 ′, etc. are logically connected and managed as an integrated group to perform automatic driving control and traffic control for the group. Is shown. For example, a group of vehicles belonging to a group are moved and guided to the same destination by automatic driving, or control of the operation on the road equipment 3 side such as a traffic light is requested so that the vehicles belonging to the group can move together. can do.

  The lower diagram is a flowchart showing an outline of an example of a flow of processing for controlling automatic driving, operation of a traffic light, and the like for each vehicle belonging to a group by inter-vehicle communication or road-to-vehicle communication. First, the vehicle 2 starts a loop process in which the subsequent other vehicles 2 ′ are respectively processed in the order closer to the vehicle 2 (S 21). In the loop process, first, the communication unit 11 establishes a vehicle-to-vehicle communication session using a predetermined protocol with the target other vehicle 2 '(S22). Then, various information related to the driving status of the vehicle 2 and the target other vehicle 2 'is acquired (S23).

  Thereafter, based on the information acquired in step S23, it is determined whether or not the distance between the vehicle 2 and the target other vehicle 2 'is within a predetermined distance (S24). The predetermined distance here is a value set in advance as the upper limit of the length of the vehicle train when managing the vehicle 2 and a plurality of other vehicles 2 'as a group. When the distance between the target other vehicle 2 'is larger than the predetermined distance (S24: No), the loop process is terminated.

  If the distance between the target other vehicle 2 ′ and the like is within a predetermined distance (S24: Yes), whether or not the driving situation is similar between the vehicle 2 and the target other vehicle 2 ′ That is, it is determined whether or not it is suitable for management as a group (S25). Although a similar determination method is not particularly limited, for example, it can be determined by whether each item such as a traveling direction, an (average) speed, a destination set in the car navigation system 40 is similar, or not. When the driving situation is not similar (S25: No), the loop process is terminated.

  If the driving conditions are similar (S25: Yes), the setting is made such that the other vehicle 2 'is added to the group to which the vehicle 2 belongs and managed as a group (S26). The fact that the group has been set is notified to the target other vehicle 2 ′ by inter-vehicle communication together with information such as a group ID and an ID for identifying the vehicle 2, for example. Thereafter, the process for the target other vehicle 2 'is terminated, and the process proceeds to the next other vehicle 2' (S27, S21). When processing is performed for all subsequent vehicles having similar driving conditions within a predetermined distance, the loop processing is terminated.

  Thereafter, automatic driving control, traffic control, and the like are performed on the vehicles 2 and other vehicles 2 'belonging to the set group (S28). For example, information related to the driving content of the vehicle 2 is notified to other vehicles 2 'in the group by inter-vehicle communication in real time. The other vehicle 2 'controls the automatic driving so as to follow the vehicle 2 according to the acquired driving content. Further, for example, the vehicle 2 and each other vehicle 2 ′, for example, notify the group ID to which the vehicle 2 belongs to the road equipment 3 (traffic light) through road-to-vehicle communication. The road facility 3 (traffic light) may continue the green light until all other vehicles 2 ′, etc., having the same group ID as the group ID of the vehicle 2 have passed.

  While continuing control of the vehicle 2 and other vehicles 2 'in the group, it is periodically determined whether or not each other vehicle 2' in the group has left the group (S29). Whether or not the group has left can be determined, for example, based on the same criterion as the criterion in steps S24 and S25 described above. If there is no other vehicle 2 'that has left (S29: No), the process returns to step S28 and the group control is continued. If there is another vehicle 2 'that has left, the control in the group is terminated. The other vehicle etc. 2 ′ that ends the control in the group only with the other vehicle etc. 2 ′ following the other vehicle etc. 2 ′ that has left the vehicle and that remains in the position closer to the vehicle 2 than the other vehicle etc. 2 ′ that has left the vehicle You may make it continue the control in a group between.

  In the example of FIG. 4, the vehicle 2 is the head of the group train, and the subsequent other vehicles 2 ′ are managed as a group to follow the vehicle 2 (the vehicle 2 is a group leader). However, it is not limited to this. The vehicle 2 serving as the group leader may not be located at the head of the train, and a group may be set for other vehicles 2 ′ in front of and behind the vehicle 2. In the example of FIG. 4, the vehicle 2 directly performs inter-vehicle communication with each other vehicle 2 ′, but is not limited thereto. Another vehicle 2 'in which a vehicle-to-vehicle communication session with the vehicle 2 has been established may further perform communication between the other vehicle 2' and the subsequent vehicle 2 'and relay data.

<Operation control (overall emergency control)>
FIG. 5 is a diagram showing an outline of another example of the automatic operation control in the present embodiment. Here, for example, in the case of an emergency such as the occurrence of a disaster, in order to forcibly control the automatic driving of each vehicle 2 in order to ensure the safety of each vehicle 2 and drivers and pedestrians and smooth evacuation / movement An example is shown. For example, the traffic control system 50 operated and managed by the country, local government, or the like transmits an instruction related to the control content to each vehicle 2 that is automatically driving through road-to-vehicle communication via the road facility 3 by the instruction unit 51. Each vehicle 2 may independently receive a disaster signal or the like and autonomously change it to emergency control content by the operation control unit 12 according to a predetermined rule.

  The emergency control content such as the occurrence of a disaster is not particularly limited. For example, in order to prevent a new inflow of the vehicle 2 to the central part of the city and quickly reduce traffic congestion in the central part, for example, FIG. As shown in FIG. 5, the automatic operation is controlled so that the vehicle 2 located at the outer edge (suburb) of the city is forcibly moved to the outside of the city. Thereafter, the vehicles 2 to be forcibly moved outside the city area are sequentially expanded toward the center of the city area. As for the vehicle 2 that is allowed to wait for movement outside the city, free driving is restricted during that time. For example, the speed limit is limited to be lower than normal, or the movement toward the center of the city is limited.

  Further, some of the vehicles 2 located in the center or the like may be parked and stopped automatically by bringing them to a safe place such as a road shoulder. Note that the same automatic parking and stopping control is not limited to when a disaster occurs.For example, when the driver detects a situation where normal driving is not possible due to drinking or falling asleep, it should be performed according to the time of the disaster. Good.

  For the vehicle 2 that does not have the function of automatic driving, for example, when the vehicle 2 has a function of inter-vehicle communication or road-to-vehicle communication, the vehicle is based on information that can be exchanged by these communications. 2 and the like are specified, and an instruction related to the control content is notified to the driver. Although the notification means is not particularly limited, for example, it can be reflected in the route guidance of the car navigation system 40 or the instruction content can be displayed on the display. The contents of the instruction may be output by voice. About the vehicle 2 which does not have a communication function, the presence, a position, a driving | running condition etc. are pinpointed and grasped | ascertained, for example by a satellite photograph. And when it is judged that it behaves contrary to the control contents at the time of emergency, for example, it is possible to take countermeasures such as directing a corresponding vehicle such as a police vehicle or a tow truck to the site.

<Operation control (communication failure)>
FIG. 6 is a diagram showing an overview of an example of communication control of the vehicle 2 in the present embodiment. Here, as shown in the upper diagram, an example of control when the vehicle 2 during automatic operation becomes unable to communicate all or partly due to a communication failure or a system failure is shown in the lower diagram. . For example, as shown in the lower left diagram, when communication is not possible, the vehicle 2 displays the content and mode of automatic driving (represented by the difference in the color and length of the arrows in the diagram) during normal operation. Switch from one to another. For example, the control content is switched to more important safety. You may make it switch from automatic operation to manual operation (non-automatic operation).

  In addition, in the case of “cannot communicate”, in addition to the case where communication by the mobile communication system provided by the mobile communication provider cannot be performed, the mobile communication system of a plurality of systems provided by the mobile communication provider This includes cases in which communication using some methods is not possible. For example, at a certain timing, the communication unit 11 was able to communicate with each of the third generation to fifth generation mobile communication systems (3G, 4G, 5G), but only 5G communication could not be performed at the next timing. Including. At this time, it is good also as a structure which switches the content and mode of automatic driving | operation according to a communication system at the timing which the communication system switched. For example, as shown in Table 1 and Table 2 below, it is possible to switch to an operation mode corresponding to the communication method.

  In the example of Table 1, the automatic operation mode, the semi-automatic (partially automatic) operation mode, and the manual (non-automatic) operation mode are switched according to the communication method. In the example in Table 2, two types of automatic operation modes (“automatic operation 1” and “automatic operation 2”) and semi-automatic (partially automatic) operation modes with different contents and settings are switched depending on the communication method. Yes.

  Note that when switching to manual driving, switching control may be varied depending on whether or not the person on board the target vehicle 2 has a driving license. For example, when switching to manual driving after detecting a communication failure, the passenger is inquired through the display of the car navigation system 40 whether or not the driver's license is held, or in the case of an IC card type driver's license, an IC chip Let the reader read the contents. If the passenger has a valid driver's license, the vehicle 2 is switched to manual driving. If not, the vehicle 2 is automatically driven to an appropriate nearby location that does not hinder nearby traffic. Move or stop.

  As shown in the lower center diagram of FIG. 6, the vehicle 2 may switch the communication connection destination to another server, system, or the like. Further, as shown in the lower right diagram, even when the vehicle 2 cannot communicate with the server, the system, or the like, the vehicle-to-vehicle communication with the other vehicle 2 'is possible, and the other vehicle 2' May communicate with the server or the system via the other vehicle 2 'or the automatic driving may be continued under the control of the other vehicle 2'. .

  FIG. 7 is a diagram showing an outline of an example of route guidance based on the communication method (operation mode) in the present embodiment. As described above with reference to FIG. 6, in the present embodiment, when the communication system of the mobile communication system is switched in the vehicle 2, the content and mode of automatic driving can be switched. Each mobile carrier provides an area map for each communication method. Therefore, the route guidance based on the communication method (that is, the corresponding operation mode) is performed by the car navigation system 40 using the area map of each communication method disclosed and the map information held by the car navigation system 40. it can.

  For example, if the driver is requesting route guidance when going from the departure point to the destination in the automatic driving mode with respect to the car navigation system 40, if the control in Table 1 is applied, the automatic driving mode is This is set only when the communication method is 5G communication. Therefore, a route that can use 5G communication on all routes to the destination can be calculated using the 5G communication area map and the map information held by the car navigation system 40 and presented to the driver.

  For example, in the grid-like road map shown in FIG. 7, an area where 5G communication is possible and an area where 4G communication is possible are shown superimposed. Here, when searching for a route from the starting house (lower right) to the destination hospital (upper left) in the figure, if the driver specifies the automatic driving mode, the car navigation system 40 can perform 5G communication. The route from the departure point to the destination on the simple road (the route indicated by the dotted line arrow in the figure) is extracted. If the communication method is not limited, there is a route that can reach the destination in a shorter distance and in a shorter time than the route indicated by the dotted arrow, but it is a detour because the driver has specified the automatic driving mode. Has extracted a route that can maintain 5G communication.

  It should be noted that the area map published by the mobile communication carrier does not necessarily indicate the correspondence status of each communication method in detail along the road. In this case, for example, an area map having a shape along the road may be separately prepared and distributed to the vehicle 2 by a server system such as a vehicle driving support server described later. For example, it is possible to collect information related to the status of each communication method for each region where each driver is located, and create an area map of the communication method for each road in the region.

  Furthermore, the radio wave situation in each communication method can change from moment to moment, such as due to weather such as rain, or when the beam forming by the Massive MIMO antenna is dynamically changed. A technology that predicts on the device side (terminal side) or the mobile communication system side that the communication method to be used will change in response to such dynamic changes in radio wave conditions, or a change in communication method on the mobile communication system side. Many technologies for notification have already been released. In view of this, a configuration may be adopted in which a change in the communication method is detected in advance on the vehicle 2 (car navigation system 40) side and a route search is performed again using such a well-known common technique.

  On the other hand, even if the route corresponding to only the automatic driving mode and / or the semi-automatic driving mode is extracted in the first route search and a route that increases the driving distance and driving time is extracted, The situation may change. In this case, it may be possible to maintain the communication method required by the automatic operation mode and / or the semi-automatic operation mode even with a shorter driving distance or driving time route. Therefore, a configuration may be adopted in which a radio wave condition is detected at any time, a route search is performed again triggered by a change in the radio wave condition, and a new route is proposed to the driver.

<Operation control (compliance with traffic rules)>
In the automatic driving of the vehicle 2, it is necessary to control the driving contents so as to comply with traffic rules defined as traffic laws and traffic manners. Such traffic rules may be different in each region in addition to those set uniformly throughout the country. In the present embodiment, these rules are stored in advance in a table or the like as the traffic rules 14, for example. Rules that differ from region to region and temporary rules such as in an emergency may be retained each time as instructed from a system such as the traffic control system 50 or a server via road-to-vehicle communication. In addition to the rule itself, the traffic rule 14 may include information on roads and areas to which the rule is applied (for example, parking prohibited sections). Further, the control content of the automatic driving when the traffic rule is applied may be set separately in the control rule 13.

  The traffic rule 14 and the control rule 13 when this is applied include, for example, compliance with a speed limit (the driver cannot adjust the speed without permission), overtaking prohibition in an overtaking prohibition section, and a slow section such as near a school. Including slow driving, avoiding one-way sections and entry-prohibited sections. Further, when entering the parking prohibited section, for example, a warning may be given to the driver via a display on the display of the car navigation system 40, audio output, or the like, and control may be performed so that parking is not possible (stopping is possible). Further, in a stop-prohibited section in front of the fire department, for example, when entering, there is no other vehicle 2 'ahead based on information such as vehicle-to-vehicle communication, road-to-vehicle communication, camera image of the drive recorder 30, etc. You may control to enter only when it is judged that it can pass without stopping.

  FIG. 8 is a flowchart showing an outline of an example of the flow of operation control according to the traffic rule 14 in the present embodiment. First, the operation control part 12 of the vehicle 2 acquires the control rule 13 (S31). And based on the information obtained by the vehicle-to-vehicle communication by the communication part 11, the road-to-vehicle communication, and the information obtained from the sensor 20, the information which concerns on the present position of the vehicle 2, the attribute of the road in operation, etc. is acquired (S32). ). Then, the traffic rule 14 applied to the current position and the road on which the vehicle is traveling is acquired (S33). Further, based on information obtained from the sensor 20, information on the driving status (speed, traveling direction, driving mode, etc.) of the vehicle 2 is acquired (S34).

  Thereafter, it is determined whether or not automatic driving is in progress (S35). If the vehicle is in automatic operation (S35: Yes), automatic operation is controlled based on the control rule 13 and the traffic rule 14 acquired in steps S31 and S33, respectively (S37). In other words, automatic driving is controlled in compliance with traffic regulations and traffic manners. If the vehicle is not in automatic operation (S35: No), it is determined from the information on the driving situation acquired in step S34 whether or not the vehicle rule deviates from the rules defined in the traffic rule 14 (S36). If it does not deviate from the rule (S36: No), the process ends without doing anything. On the other hand, when it deviates from a rule (S36: Yes), based on the control rule 13 and the traffic rule 14 which were acquired by step S31 and S33, respectively, control of automatic driving is compulsorily performed (S37). In other words, the operation is forcibly switched to automatic driving control in compliance with traffic regulations and traffic manners.

<Operation control (when an accident occurs)>
FIG. 9 is a flowchart showing an outline of an example of a flow of operation control when an accident occurs in the present embodiment. First, the driving control unit 12 of the vehicle 2 acquires information on the driving status of the vehicle 2 (speed, traveling direction, video information outside the vehicle obtained by the drive recorder 30 and the like) based on information obtained from the sensor 20. (S41). Then, the acquired information is analyzed to predict the possibility of an accident (S42). The method for predicting the accident is not particularly limited. For example, the braking distance is estimated based on the speed of the vehicle 2, the weather, the road surface condition, and the like, and the other vehicle 2 ′ and the road are within the range of the braking distance in the traveling direction of the vehicle 2. Prediction is based on whether there are obstacles such as equipment 3 and buildings. You may consider the ease of avoidance operation based on road conditions, such as the width and gradient of a road, and the presence or absence of a sidewalk. It is desirable to express the possibility of an accident by numerical values.

  Thereafter, it is determined whether or not an accident is likely to occur, that is, whether or not the possibility of the accident is higher than a predetermined level (S43). If no accident is likely to occur (S43: No), the process is terminated and the automatic operation is continued as it is. If an accident is likely to occur (S43: Yes), acquisition of the video around the vehicle 2 is started (S44). This can be used when images are constantly acquired by the drive recorder 30. You may make it request | require acquisition of a satellite photograph and an image | video via the communication part 11 with respect to the system and service which image | photographs a satellite photograph or image | video acquisition.

  Thereafter, based on the information obtained from the sensor 20, it is determined whether or not an accident has actually been detected (S45). When not detecting (S45: No), a process is complete | finished and an automatic driving | operation is continued as it is. When detected (S45: Yes), the accident occurrence is reported to the police, etc. via the communication unit 11 (specifically, a system that accepts an accident report by the police (hereinafter sometimes referred to as “police system”)). Notification is made (S46). After the notification (may be before the notification), the information of the video taken by the drive recorder 30 is acquired (S47), this is transmitted to the police system (S48), and the process is terminated.

  The video information to be transmitted is not limited to the video information of the drive recorder 30 of the vehicle 2, and may be video information of the drive recorder 30 of the other vehicle 2 ′ or the like obtained by inter-vehicle communication. Further, instead of actively transmitting the video information by the vehicle 2, it may be transmitted based on a recovery instruction from the police system that has been notified of the occurrence of the accident.

  As described above, according to the vehicle driving support system 1 according to the first embodiment of the present invention, the other vehicle 2 ′, the road facility 3, the server and the system are targeted for the vehicle 2 having the function of automatic driving. The information can be exchanged through communication with the information, and the driving can be automatically controlled based on the acquired information.

(Embodiment 2)
The vehicle driving support system according to the second embodiment of the present invention is directed to the driver and the passenger of the vehicle 2 (which may be either automatic driving or manual driving) via the car navigation system 40 or its display. Presents useful information.

<System configuration>
FIG. 10 is a diagram showing an outline of a configuration example of the vehicle driving support system according to the second embodiment of the present invention. Since it is almost the same as the configuration shown in FIG. 1 of the first embodiment, the description will be mainly limited to the differences. In the vehicle driving support system 1 according to the present embodiment, the ECU 10 includes a proficiency level determination unit 15 in addition to the communication unit 11 and the driving control unit 12. Further, it is possible to communicate with various facilities 7 and the vehicle driving support server 60 through roadside-to-vehicle communication or communication through the Internet connection via the communication unit 11.

  The proficiency level determination unit 15 of the ECU 10 has a function of determining the proficiency level of the driver of the vehicle 2 (degree of driving skill) based on information obtained from the sensor 20. As a proficiency level determination method, a known technique including AI can be used as appropriate. For example, the determination can be made on the basis of the degree or number of times of sudden steering, rapid acceleration, sudden braking, or the like. You may consider the number of times of turning back at the time of parking.

  Information of the sensor 20 used to determine the proficiency level is transmitted to the vehicle driving support server 60 via the communication unit 11 as a driving log. The vehicle driving support server 60 records and accumulates the driving log collected from each vehicle 2 as the driving log 62, and each road and each facility based on the driving log 62 by the difficulty analysis unit 61 implemented as software. 7 is analyzed as a driving difficulty level 63 and recorded as a driving difficulty level 63. About a parking lot, you may analyze a difficulty level finely for every parking space. Each vehicle 2 can access the vehicle driving support server 60 via the communication unit 11 and acquire information on the driving difficulty level 63 related to a desired road, a parking lot of the facility 7, and the like.

<Control by proficiency>
In the present embodiment, for the vehicle 2 that is being driven manually, a suitable facility 7 to stop by is selected according to the skill level of the driver and the situation of the facility 7, and navigation is performed by the car navigation system 40. For example, in addition to the level of proficiency of the driver, the condition of the facility 7 is determined by taking into account information on the difficulty of driving the road to the facility 7 and the difficulty of parking in the parking lot of the facility 7 Or navigate to the facility 7 where parking and parking are easy. Information on the difficulty level of driving and parking is, for example, the width of the road facing the parking lot of the facility 7, which lane side the parking lot is in the direction of travel of the vehicle 2, and parking in the parking lot. This includes static information such as the location of the space, and dynamic information such as the traffic volume on the road near the parking lot and the congestion status of the parking lot.

  For static information, information registered in advance in the car navigation system 40 may be used, or information acquired from the driving difficulty level 63 of the vehicle driving support server 60 may be used. About dynamic information, you may acquire via the road equipment 3 etc. by road-to-vehicle communication, for example, and may acquire directly from the plant | facility 7 by communication by internet connection.

  As described above, the difficulty level analysis unit 61 of the vehicle driving support server 60 analyzes the driving difficulty level of each road or the parking lot of the facility 7 and records it as the driving difficulty level 63. The degree of difficulty can be calculated based on a predetermined standard from static information such as the width of a road, the position of a parking lot / parking space, and the presence of an obstacle, for example. It is also possible to perform a statistical analysis based on the driving log 62 collected from each vehicle 2 to determine the difficulty level. For example, traveling is difficult / easy, parking / stopping is difficult from information on the frequency of speed reduction of each vehicle 2 on the target road, steering wheel operation, brake operation, turn-back operation when parking in the target parking lot, etc./ Easy etc. can be determined. The difficulty level may be determined based on the correlation with the proficiency level by recording the proficiency level of the driver in the driving log 62.

<Acquisition / presentation of various information>
In the present embodiment, the driver and the passenger of the vehicle 2 (which may be either automatic driving or manual driving) are informed of the surrounding traffic situation via the car navigation system 40 or its display. More detailed information can be referred to.

  FIG. 11 is a diagram showing an outline of an example of a user interface that refers to surrounding traffic conditions in the present embodiment. Here, a road map screen displayed on a display having a touch panel function of the car navigation system 40 is shown. In the upper diagram, the situation where the displayed road is congested is shown by dark shading. However, since the same shade is uniformly applied, only the presence or absence of traffic jam can be grasped, and the difference or distribution of the traffic jam in the traffic jam section cannot be grasped. Therefore, it is indicated that the driver or the occupant has performed a pinch-out gesture by the touch panel function in order to enlarge and display this traffic jam section.

  The middle diagram shows a state where the display is enlarged around the target position by the pinch-out gesture in the upper diagram. Here, the road map is enlarged and the traffic situation is further subdivided (the shaded colors are divided). This indicates that the driver or passenger has further made a pinch-out gesture in order to further enlarge the congestion section.

  The lower diagram shows a state where the display is further enlarged around the target position by the pinch-out gesture in the middle diagram. Here, the road map is further enlarged, the traffic situation is displayed by shading, and the individual other vehicles 2 'etc. that are running are also displayed by icons or the like so that the positions thereof can be grasped. For example, the position of each other vehicle 2 ′ is notified by, for example, notifying the position information detected by the other vehicle 2 ′ using a GPS sensor to the traffic control system 50 or the vehicle driving support server 60 via road-to-vehicle communication. It can be grasped centrally. It may be such that satellite data or image data of a photograph taken from the sky by a drone or the like is analyzed and grasped.

  Here, when the driver or the passenger makes a touch gesture on the touch panel with respect to the specific other vehicle 2 ′, for example, although not shown, the video data of the drive recorder 30 included in the other vehicle 2 ′ is displayed on the vehicle. You may make it acquire by communication by inter-vehicle communication or internet connection, and display this. In addition, instead of directly designating other vehicle 2 'etc., in the middle or lower diagram, when the driver or passenger further performs a pinch-out gesture, the other vehicle closest to the target position, etc. Similarly, for 2 ′, the video of the drive recorder 30 may be acquired and displayed.

  In this way, by allowing the video of the drive recorder 30 of the other vehicle 2 ′ to be displayed, the drive recorder 30 can be shared with the other vehicle 2 ′, and the actual traffic situation and street view of the target position can be shared. (Registered trademark) can be referred to. Note that the road map can be zoomed out by a pinch-in gesture, contrary to the example of FIG.

  As described above, according to the vehicle driving support system 1 according to the second embodiment of the present invention, useful information is provided to the driver and the passenger of the vehicle 2 via the car navigation system 40 or its display. Can be presented.

(Embodiment 3)
The vehicle driving support system according to the third embodiment of the present invention links the vehicle 2 (which can be either automatic driving or manual driving) and a drone to the driver or passenger of the vehicle 2. Provide useful functions.

<System configuration>
FIG. 12 is a diagram showing an outline of a configuration example of the vehicle driving support system according to the third embodiment of the present invention. Since it is almost the same as the configuration shown in FIG. 1 of the first embodiment, the description will be mainly limited to the differences. In the vehicle driving support system 1 of the present embodiment, the vehicle 2 travels while flying in a form that normally accompanies one or more various drones 8 in the vicinity.

  The ECU 10 of the vehicle 2 includes a drone control unit 16 in addition to the communication unit 11 and the operation control unit 12. The drone control unit 16 communicates with the drone 8 via the communication unit 11 to control flight of the drone 8, operation instructions, and information from the drone 8 (for example, video information taken by a camera mounted on the drone 8). Acquire.

  FIG. 13 is a diagram showing an outline of an example of a control form of the drone 8 in the present embodiment. As shown in the example of the vehicle 2 on the left (front), normally, the drone 8 communicates with a specific vehicle 2 (usually the vehicle 2 in which the driver or passenger who owns the drone 8 rides) Under control. In this case, the vehicle 2 receives an instruction from the driver or the passenger, controls the drone 8 by the drone control unit 16, and performs various processes. For example, the drone 8 is moved to a remote location, and video data that captures a traffic jam or a traffic jam is acquired via the communication unit 11.

  On the other hand, as shown in the vehicle 2 on the right side (rear), the drone 8 owned by another person is not limited to the drone 8 owned by the driver or the passenger, such as sharing the drone 8 among the plurality of vehicles 2. It may be possible to control directly or indirectly. In this case, the user may not own the drone 8. Further, the drone 8 is not limited to the one owned by the driver or the passenger of any vehicle 2, and may be, for example, the drone 8 provided by the local government or the like for public use. When sharing the drone 8, for example, the vehicle 2 having the control right of the drone 8 is determined based on a predetermined procedure or rule by inter-vehicle communication between the vehicles 2 to be shared.

  FIG. 14 is a diagram showing an outline of an example of delivery of an article by drone 8 in the present embodiment. Here, an example in which the vehicle 2 receives delivery of an article by the drone 8 is shown. For example, in a traffic jam, a driver or a passenger of the vehicle 2 uses a communication via the Internet connection via the communication unit 11 or a mobile communication using a portable terminal such as a smartphone in advance to store in front ( For example, an order and a settlement are made via a network to a store that can be purchased without entering a store such as drive-through.

  Then, as shown in the figure, the accompanying drone 8 is instructed to pick up a product from the front store and return to the vehicle 2, and the product is acquired from the returned drone 8. Thereby, for example, a product can be purchased and delivered while in a congested train. It is also possible to realize a mechanism for supplying power while the vehicle 2 (for example, an electric vehicle or a so-called hybrid vehicle) is moving by distributing the battery (or making the drone 8 itself into a battery).

  FIG. 15 is a diagram showing an outline of another example of delivery of an article by drone 8 in the present embodiment. Here, an example is shown in which a vehicle 2 such as a delivery truck of a delivery company delivers goods by a drone 8. As shown in the figure, for example, one or more vehicles 2 such as a courier company that travels around a plurality of delivery destinations in order to deliver a package do not go directly to the delivery destination home or condominium, while the delivery route is moving. The drone 8 storing the baggage is caused to fly to each delivery destination, and the baggage is sequentially delivered and then returned to the vehicle 2. Then, a series of processes of storing another package and flying again to each delivery destination is repeated. As described above, the movement of the delivery route of the vehicle 2 and the delivery of the package (delivery of “last 1 mile”) to each delivery destination by the drone 8 can be performed asynchronously in parallel, thereby improving the delivery efficiency. Greatly improve.

  When delivering a package by the drone 8, the drone 8 does not fly along with the traveling of the vehicle 2 as in the above-described example, but the vehicle 2 such as a truck loads the drone 8 storing the package to be delivered. The vehicle may be stored in the vehicle or the like, and taken off at an appropriate location toward the delivery destination. In this case, the drone 8 returned after delivering the package is collected, for example, on a loading platform.

  The delivery plan optimization such as what delivery route the vehicle 2 takes, where the drone 8 is taken off and where it is most efficient to collect is known, for example, by a drone control unit 16 of the ECU 10 or the like. Etc. can be used as appropriate. When it is necessary to stop the vehicle 2 for the arrival and departure of the drone 8, optimization is performed in consideration of a place where the vehicle can be parked. If it is detected that the drone 8 that has taken off and is unable to return to the vehicle 2 is detected, for example, by contacting the person in charge of collection of the delivery company, the collection is performed asynchronously with the delivery of other packages. .

  It is assumed that a drone port or a drone box for the drone 8 to place a baggage is installed in a garden, a veranda or the like in a house or a condominium that receives the delivery of the baggage. For example, when building a housing complex such as a condominium, for each house with a predetermined number of floors or more, the load of delivery of luggage to each house will increase, so a drone port or drone box as described above is incorporated in advance. One or more verandas may be configured.

  As described above, according to the vehicle driving support system 1 according to the third embodiment of the present invention, the vehicle 2 and the drone 8 are linked to each other and functions useful to the driver and the passenger of the vehicle 2. Can be provided.

  As mentioned above, the invention made by the present inventor has been specifically described based on the embodiments. However, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and various modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the invention. Needless to say. For example, the above-described embodiment has been described in detail for easy understanding of the present invention, and is not necessarily limited to the one having all the configurations described. Further, a part of the configuration of one embodiment can be replaced with the configuration of another embodiment, and the configuration of another embodiment can be added to the configuration of one embodiment. . Further, it is possible to add, delete, and replace other configurations for a part of the configuration of each embodiment.

  Each of the above-described configurations, functions, processing units, processing means, and the like may be realized by hardware by designing a part or all of them with, for example, an integrated circuit. Each of the above-described configurations, functions, and the like may be realized by software by interpreting and executing a program that realizes each function by the processor. Moreover, in each said figure, the control line and the information line have shown what is considered necessary for description, and do not necessarily show all the control lines and information lines on mounting. Actually, it may be considered that almost all the components are connected to each other.
