Vehicle

A vehicle comprising:

• a vehicle platform comprising:
• a base vehicle including a first control device,
• a vehicle control interface box including a first computer and a second computer, the first computer configured to communicate with both the first control device and a second control device, and the second computer configured to communicate with the first computer;
• an autonomous driving kit configured to transmit a command for autonomous driving to the vehicle platform, the autonomous driving kit comprising the second control device, the second control device configured to determine a command related to autonomous driving control, wherein the command for autonomous driving includes the command related to autonomous driving control;
• and
• a start switch configured to receive a user operation for switching a control system to operate or stop,
• wherein:
• the first computer comprises a storage device and is further configured to select the first computer or the second computer as an interface computer,
• when the first computer is selected as the interface computer, the first computer is further configured to:
• periodically detect an operation mode selected from among options including an autonomous mode in which the vehicle platform is under control of the autonomous driving kit and a manual mode in which the vehicle is under control of a driver,
• periodically record operation mode information indicating the operation mode,
• output the operation mode to the first control device,
• detect a state of the start switch, and
• based on the state of the start switch indicating that the control system is operating and based on the operation mode being the autonomous mode, record history information in the storage device, and
• based on the history information being recorded, when rebooting, select the second computer as the interface computer;
• after the rebooting, based on the state of the start switch indicating that the control system is not operating, select the first computer as the interface computer;
• when the second computer is selected as the interface computer, the second computer is configured to:
• detect the operation mode recorded immediately before the rebooting, and
• output the operation mode to the first control device;
• the vehicle control interface box is configured to:
• based on the second computer detecting the operation mode recorded immediately before the rebooting, execute Controller Area Network (CAN) cutoff, wherein the CAN cutoff stops communication between the first computer and the second computer, and
• based on the first computer being selected as the interface computer after the CAN cutoff, terminate the CAN cutoff;
• and
• the first control device is configured to control the base vehicle based on the operation mode.
