Self-position estimation device, self-driving system including the same, and self-generated map sharing device

Abstract

An object is to provide a self-position estimation device capable of highly accurately estimating self-location and attitudes on a map containing information such as lane centerlines, stop lines, and traffic rules. A representative self-position estimation device according to the present invention includes a self-position estimation portion that estimates a self-location and attitude on a high-precision map from measurement results of a sensor to measure objects around a vehicle; a low-precision section detection portion that detects a low-precision section indicating low estimation accuracy based on the self-location and attitude estimated by the self-position estimation portion; and a self-map generation portion that generates a self-generated map saving a position and type of the object on the high-precision map in the low-precision section detected by the low-precision section detection portion.
