A vehicle travel control method comprising:
- when controlling a vehicle having an autonomous travel control function to travel autonomously, detecting whether or not an object is present around the vehicle using an object detector;
- and
- upon change from a state of not detecting the object to a state of detecting the object, changing a predetermined pattern corresponding to a detection range of the object detector to a pattern different from the pattern displayed until then, the predetermined pattern being displayed at a certain position on a road surface toward the detection range so as to be visible.
(canceled)
A vehicle travel control apparatus comprising:
- a travel controller configured to control a vehicle having an autonomous travel control function to travel autonomously;
- a controller configured to calculate a travel route of the vehicle and output a travel command to the travel controller;
- an object detector configured to search for whether or not an object is present around the vehicle;
- a pattern display device configured to display a visible pattern on a road surface;
- and
- a display controller configured to control the pattern display device so that, upon change from a state of not detecting the object to a state of detecting the object, a predetermined pattern corresponding to a detection range of the object detector is changed to a pattern different from the pattern displayed until then, the predetermined pattern being displayed at a certain position on a road surface toward the detection range so as to be visible.
