VEHICLE CONTROL SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A vehicle control system for controlling a plurality of vehicles traveling along a plurality of track roads, the system comprising:
- a plurality of position detecting devices installed on each of the plurality of vehicles and configured to detect a position thereof;
a plurality of parameter detecting devices installed on each of the plurality of vehicles and configured to detect a parameter indicative of a possibility for a vehicle installed with the position detecting device, the vehicle traveling on one of two adjacent track roads in a two-way traffic area formed by the two adjacent track roads different in vehicle traveling direction, to enter the other of the two adjacent track roads;
a specific spot setting unit configured to execute, on a basis of positions of the plurality of vehicles output from the plurality of position detecting devices, parameters output from the plurality of parameter detecting devices, and thresholds related with the parameter, a processing for setting a position at which the parameters have been output as a specific spot; and
a storage device configured to store positional information on a place set as the specific spot by the specific spot detecting unit.

Abstract
A vehicle control system is provided in which, if a position requiring caution for the contact with an oncoming vehicle on a track road is found also on an ex-post facto basis, the information thereof is easily fed back to the control of each vehicle. This vehicle control system has a GPS receiver 101 for detecting the position of each vehicle, an encoder 72 and an IMU 73 mounted on each vehicle, a specific spot setting unit 87 for setting a position requiring caution for the passing with an oncoming vehicle as a specific spot on the basis of a vehicle position, a slip ratio and a curvature that are computed from the values output therefrom, and a storage device for storing the positional information on a place set as a specific spot by a specific spot detecting unit.
