The invention discloses a
minimum risk control method of an automatic driving vehicle and the automatic driving vehicle, and relates to the field of automatic driving
vehicle control. Determining a second coordinate of the target obstacle according to the distance information and a first coordinate of the distance measuring module under 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 autonomous vehicle; and according to the second coordinate, the second
moving speed and a preset collision prediction strategy, determining predicted collision time, and finally determining a
risk level of the target obstacle to the autonomous vehicle so as to control the autonomous vehicle to execute an operation corresponding to the
risk level. According to the scheme, the
risk level of the target obstacle for the autonomous vehicle is more accurately determined from three dimensions of the predicted collision time, the coordinates of the target obstacle and the moving speed, so that the autonomous vehicle executes the operation corresponding to the risk level, and the effectiveness and reliability of the
minimum risk control scheme are improved.
