Abstract
A method of controlling fine steering of independent steering apparatuses of a vehicle includes determining, by a controller, a parallel mode input; performing rotation of the independent steering apparatuses when the controller receives the parallel mode input, and determining, by the controller, a moving direction of the vehicle in response to a rotating direction of a steering wheel. The method further includes: after determining the moving direction of the vehicle, determining, by the controller, whether or not the vehicle enters a fine steering mode; and performing, by the controller, steering angle input to the independent steering apparatuses located at a front end in the moving direction of the vehicle.

A method of controlling fine steering of independent steering apparatuses for a vehicle, comprising:
- determining, by a controller, a parallel mode input;
- performing rotation of the independent steering apparatuses when the controller receives the parallel mode input;
- determining, by the controller, a moving direction of the vehicle in response to a rotating direction of a steering wheel;
- after setting the moving direction of the vehicle, determining, by the controller, whether the vehicle enters a fine steering mode;
- and
- performing, by the controller, steering angle input to the independent steering apparatuses located at a front end in the moving direction of the vehicle.

- performing rotation of the independent steering apparatuses of a vehicle when the controller receives the parallel mode input;
- determining, by the controller, a moving direction of the vehicle in response to a rotating direction of a steering wheel of the vehicle;
- after setting the moving direction of the vehicle, determining, by the controller, whether the vehicle enters a fine steering mode;
- determining, by the controller, whether an additional input is applied to the steering wheel upon determining that the vehicle enters the fine steering mode;
- and
- after the vehicle enters the fine steering mode, performing, by the controller, steering angle input to the independent steering apparatuses located at a front end in the moving direction of the vehicle in response to the additional input to the independent steering wheel.
