The application discloses a
minimum risk control method of an automatic driving vehicle and the automatic driving vehicle, relates to the field of automatic driving
vehicle control, and acquires distance information detected by a
ranging module; determines a second coordinate of a target obstacle according to the distance information, a first coordinate of the
ranging module in a preset reference coordinate
system, so as to determine a second
moving speed of the target obstacle in combination with a first
moving speed of the automatic driving vehicle; determines a predicted collision time according to the second coordinate, the second
moving speed and a preset collision prediction strategy, finally determines a
risk level of the target obstacle to the automatic driving vehicle, and controls the automatic driving vehicle to perform an operation corresponding to the
risk level. According to the scheme, the
risk level of the target obstacle to the automatic driving vehicle is more accurately determined from three dimensions of the predicted collision time, the coordinate and the moving speed of the target obstacle, so that the automatic driving vehicle performs the operation corresponding to the risk level, and the effectiveness and reliability of the
minimum risk control scheme are improved.
