Abstract
An apparatus of controlling to cope with a failure in an autonomous driving system and a method thereof are provided. The apparatus determines whether a failure in one or more applications for performing a function about autonomous driving occurs and sequentially performs step-by-step failure response control corresponding to a safety rating of the application in which the failure occurs, when the failure in the application occurs. The apparatus stably performs an autonomous driving function.
Claims16
An apparatus of controlling to cope with failures in an autonomous driving system, the apparatus comprising:
- a storage configured for storing information related to a predetermined safety rating for one or more applications which perform a function about autonomous driving;
- and
- a processor configured to determine whether a failure in an application among the one or more applications occurs and sequentially perform step-by-step failure response control corresponding to a safety rating of the application in which the failure occurs, when the failure in the application occurs,
- wherein the processor is configured to:
- reset a portion of the autonomous driving system, associated with the application in which the failure occurs, step by step, and
- reset the portion of the autonomous driving system step by step, in accordance with a number of resets corresponding to the safety rating.
A method for controlling to cope with failures in an autonomous driving system, the method comprising:
- determining, by a processor, whether a failure in one or more applications for performing a function about autonomous driving occurs;
- and
- sequentially performing, by the processor, step-by-step failure response control corresponding to a safety rating of an application in which the failure occurs among the one or more applications, when the failure in the application occurs,
- wherein the sequential performing of the step-by-step failure response control by the processor includes:
- resetting, by the processor, a portion of the autonomous driving system, associated with the application in which the failure occurs, step by step, and
- wherein the resetting of the portion of the autonomous driving system, associated with the application in which the failure occurs, step by step by the processor includes:
- resetting, by the processor, the portion of the autonomous driving system step by step, depending on a number of resets corresponding to the safety rating.
