External notification system of autonomous vehicle status and external notification method of autonomous vehicle status using this

摘要

The present invention relates to an external notification unit of an autonomous vehicle state, which outputs an autonomous driving state of a vehicle in accordance with an autonomous driving level of an autonomous vehicle by each step to inform a pedestrian around the vehicle or a vehicle driver of the same so as to take proper management for safe driving, and transmits the autonomous driving state of the VR to a remote after-service center or a vehicle maker to realize a smooth countermeasure so as to reduce an accident and error of the vehicle. To this end, according to the present invention, the external notification unit of autonomous vehicle state comprises: a sensor unit to detect an external object, surrounding environment, and a state of the vehicle; a driving control unit to control operation of the vehicle; an autonomous driving engine control unit (ECU) generating an autonomous driving signal based on information detected from the sensor unit to transfer the generated signal to the driving control unit; an autonomous driving error notification ECU to diagnose an autonomous driving error level of the vehicle based on the autonomous driving level of the vehicle; and an autonomous driving error level notification unit disposed outside the vehicle and informing of the autonomous driving error level of the vehicle.
