Vehicle control apparatus
First Claim
1. A vehicle control apparatus which performs vehicle control of a vehicle through direct operations of the vehicle performed from inside of the vehicle and remote operations of the vehicle performed from a wireless terminal, the vehicle control apparatus comprising:
- a stop position setting device which sets a stop position of the vehicle by operation from inside of the vehicle;
a vehicle course calculation device which calculates a course of the vehicle from a current position of the vehicle to the stop position, and calculates a traveling plan such that the vehicle travels along the course; and
a control unit which performs traveling control of the vehicle through a remote operation from a wireless terminal on the basis of the course and the traveling plan when the stop position of the vehicle is set by the stop position setting device and the course and the traveling plan are calculated by the vehicle course calculation device,wherein, even if the stop position of the vehicle is set by the stop position setting device and the course and the traveling plan are calculated by the vehicle course calculation device, the control unit prioritizes driving operations from inside of the vehicle by canceling remote operations from the wireless terminal if movement conditions for moving the vehicle through the remote operations from the wireless terminal are not satisfied and the driving operations from inside of the vehicle are not performed.

Abstract
In a vehicle control apparatus which performs a remote operation of a vehicle using a remote control, a remote operation of the vehicle which is not intended by a driver is prevented.
When traveling control of a vehicle is performed through a remote operation from a remote control 3, a stop position of a vehicle 2 is set by a stop position setting device 9, and a movement course of the vehicle 2 is calculated by the vehicle course calculation device 10. In addition, the vehicle 2 is moved along the calculated movement course in response to a driving operation from the remote control 3, but if a driving operation from inside of the vehicle and a driving operation from the remote control 3 come into conflict, the driving operation from the remote control 3 is canceled, and the driving operation from inside of the vehicle is prioritized.
