자율주행자동차는 기술적 측면에서 많은 발전이 이루어져왔으나 자율주행자동차의 상용화가 가능하도록 다양한 법적 문제를 해결하는 작업은 매우 더디게 진행되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 자율주행자동차에서 대표적인 법적 이슈인 도로 주행 근거를 분석하고 현행 법/규정상의 문제점을 파악하며 이에 대한 개선 방안을 제시한다. 자율주행자동차에서 기술 개발과 법/규정 정비는 상호 협력적으로 이루어져야 하며, 이러한 법적 이슈를 이해하는 것은 자율주행자동차를 개발하는 기술자에게도 큰 도움이 될 것으로 여겨진다.

For the commercialization and standardization of autonomous vehicles, demand for rigorous safety criteria has been increased over the world. In Korea, the number of extraordinary service permission for automated vehicles has risen since Hyundai Motor Company got its initial license in March 2016. Nevertheless, licensing standards and evaluation factors are still insufficient for operating on public roadways. To assure driving safety, it is significant to verify whether or not the vehicle's decision is similar to human driving. This paper validates the safety of the autonomous vehicle by drawing scenario-based comparisons between manual driving and autonomous driving. In consideration of real traffic situations and safety priority, seven scenarios were chosen and classified into basic and advanced scenarios. All scenarios and safety factors are constructed based on existing ADAS requirements and investigated via a computer simulation and actual experiment. The input data was collected by an experimental vehicle test on the SNU FMTC test track located at Siheung. Then the offline simulation was conducted to verify the output was appropriate and comparable to the manual driving data.

본 연구에서는 지하광산에서 로봇의 위치를 추정하고, 여러 경유지를 거쳐 주행한 후 원위치로 복귀하는 ROS (Robot Operating System) 기반의 자율주행 로봇을 개발하였다. 자율주행 로봇은 SLAM (Simultaneous Localization And Mapping) 기술을 활용하여 주행 경로에 대한 전역 지도를 사전에 생성한다. 이후, 라이다 센서를 통해 측정되는 벽면의 형태와 전역 지도를 매칭하고 AMCL (Adaptive Monte Carlo Localization) 기법을 통해 데이터들을 융합하여 로봇의 위치를 보정한다. 또한, 라이다 센서를 통해 전방 주행환경을 인지하고, 장애물을 회피한다. 개발된 자율주행 로봇을 활용하여 지하광산 현장을 모사한 실내 실험장을 대상으로 주행 실험을 수행하였다. 그 결과, 자율주행 로봇은 다중 지점의 경유지에 대해 순차적으로 주행하고 장애물을 회피하며 안정적으로 복귀하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

자율 주행 중에 많은 운전자는 안전하다고 판단되는 상황에서 운전 외 다른 활동을 수행할 것으로 예상한다. 본 연구는 반 자율주행 차량의 안전한 상황에 대한 알림의 제어권 전환 시 상황 인식 수준과 운전 수행에 미치는 영향과 주관적 평가를 살펴보았다. 실험 1에서 통제조건(경고음), 주의 알림, 안전 알림, 모든 알림 조건에 대하여 자율 주행 차량의 영상을 보고 상황 인식 수준과 주관적 평가를 진행하였다. 그 결과 안전한 상황 알림 조건에서 상황 인식 수준이 가장 높았으며 만족도와 즐거움 척도에서 높은 평가를 받았고, 불신과 불쾌함에서는 낮은 평가를 보였다. 실험 2에서는 자율주행 차량 시뮬레이터를 이용하여 실제 운전 수행, 상황 인식 수준과 주관적 평가를 진행하였다. 그 결과 운전 수행에서 안전한 알림 조건에서 가장 높은 수행을 보였으며, 더 위험이 낮다고 주관적으로 평가하였다. 본 연구는 반자율주행 차량에서 안전한 상황에 대한 알림이 운전자의 만족도와 운전 수행을 개선할 수 있음을 보여줘 불쾌한 경험을 줄이면서 안전한 자율 주행 시스템을 디자인하는 데 도움이 될 수 있을 것으로 보인다.

This paper presents to study the path tracking method of AGV(autonomous guided vehicle) which has a laser guidance system. An existing automatic guided vehicles(AGVs) which were able to drive on wired line only had a automatic guidance system. However, the automatic guidance systems that those used had the high cost of installation and maintenance, and the difficulty of system change according to variation of working environment. To solve such problems, we make the laser guidance system which is consisted of a laser navigation and gyro, encoder. That is robust against noise, and flexible according to working environment through sensor fusion. The laser guidance system can do a perfect autonomous driving. However, the commercialization of perfect autonomous driving system is difficult, because the perfect autonomous driving system must recognize the whole environment of working space. Hence, this paper studied the path tracking of AGV using laser guidance system without wired line. The path tracking method is consisted of virtual path generation method and driving control method. To experiment, we use the fork-type AGV which is made by ourselves, and do a path tracking experiments repeatedly on same experimental environment. In result, we verified that proposed system is efficient and stable for actual fork-type AGV.

This paper presents motion planning algorithm that yields to intervening side lane vehicles in a congested traffic flow based on vehicle to vehicle (V2V) communication. Autonomous driving in dense traffic situation requires advanced driving performance in terms of vehicle interaction and risk mitigation. One of the most important functions necessary for congested traffic autonomous driving is to predict the lane change intention of the side lane target vehicle. However, implementing this function by using only environmental sensors has limitations. In this study, V2V communication is used to overcome the limitations and determine the intention of cut-in vehicles. Lane change intention of the intervening side lane vehicle is inferred by its longitudinal speed, steering angle, and turn signal light information received by the on-board-unit (OBU). Once the yield decision is made, the subject vehicle decelerates to generate sufficient clearance for the target vehicle to enter. Validation of the algorithm was conducted with actual autonomous test vehicles.

In this paper a robust image processing method with modified Otsu algorithm to recognize the road lane for a real-time controlled autonomous vehicle is presented. The main objective of a proposed method is to drive an autonomous vehicle safely irrespective of road image qualities. For the steering of real-time controlled autonomous vehicle, a detection area is predefined by lane segment, with previously obtained frame data, and the edges are detected on the basis of a lane width. For stable as well as psudo-robust autonomous driving with "good", "shady" or even "bad" road profiles, the variable threshold with modified Otsu algorithm in the image histogram, is utilized to obtain a binary image from each frame. Also Hough transform is utilized to extract the lane segment. Whether the image is "good", "shady" or "bad", always robust and reliable edges are obtained from the algorithms applied in this paper in a real-time basis. For verifying the adaptability of the proposed algorithm, a miniature vehicle with a camera is constructed and tested with various road conditions. Also, various highway road images are analyzed with proposed algorithm to prove its usefulness.

The purpose of this study is to suggest the direction for the development of intelligent agricultural machinery technology in the Republic of Korea. For this purpose, intelligent technology of agricultural machinery was divided into autonomous agricultural machinery and tractor-implement intelligent communication technology. Then, a survey and analysis of a previous study of the Republic of Korea and foreign countries were conducted. GNSS-based autonomous driving technology is still widely used worldwide, and recently, as research on camera and LiDAR-based autonomous driving is actively progressing, autonomous driving technology is becoming more advanced. ISOBUS-based technology is being developed worldwide for intelligent control of tractor-attached implements, and major global agricultural machinery manufacturers are actively applying it to their products. However, although some ISOBUS technologies are being researched in the Republic of Korea, there are no cases of application on agricultural machinery yet. Therefore, to be globally competitive in the agricultural machinery manufacturing industry, there is an urgent need to advance autonomous driving technology and commercialize agricultural machinery using ISOBUS technology.

This paper presents development of a vehicle lateral and longitudinal control for autonomous driving control and test results obtained using an electric vehicle. Sliding control theory has been used to develop a vehicle speed and distance control algorithm. The longitudinal control algorithm that maintains safety and comfort of the vehicle consists of a cruise and STOP&GO control depending on traffic conditions. Desired steering angle is determined through the lateral position error and the yaw angle error based on preview optimal control. Motor control inputs have been directly derived from the sliding control law. The performance of the autonomous driving control which is integrated with a lateral and longitudinal control is investigated by computer simulations and driving test using an electric vehicle. Electric vehicle system consists of DC driving motor, an electric power steering system, main controller (Autobox)
