VEHICLE CONTROL DEVICE, VEHICLE CONTROL METHOD, AND PROGRAM
First Claim
1. A vehicle control device comprising:
- an environment information acquisition unit configured to acquire surrounding environment information of a vehicle; and
a vehicle braking control unit configured to recognize a vehicle brake instruction from outside on the basis of the surrounding environment information acquired by the environment information acquisition unit and start a vehicle braking sequence on the basis of the recognition result.

Abstract
An environment information acquisition unit 20 acquires an image in which environment around a vehicle has been imaged, information indicating a contact with the vehicle or an impact on the vehicle, surround sounds, approach identification information for enabling an approach of an emergency vehicle to be identified, and the like as surrounding environment information of the vehicle. A vehicle control processing unit 61 recognizes predetermined external stimulation information included in the surrounding environment information, for example, a specific signal or a movement with a specific pattern, a contact to a specific part, and a specific sound. The vehicle control processing unit 61 uses the recognized predetermined external stimulation information as a vehicle brake instruction from outside and starts a vehicle braking sequence to stop the vehicle. Even if an abnormality occurs in an automatically driven vehicle and the like, vehicle brake control is easily applied to a traveling vehicle from outside.
