Abstract
A steering control method and device for autonomous vehicles is provided. The steering control method includes sensing traffic lanes on a road on which a vehicle is being driven and deriving a vanishing point positioned on lines extending from the traffic lanes. A sensitivity of a steering angle that corresponds to a vertical coordinate of the vanishing point in a matrix and an initial steering angle that corresponds to a horizontal coordinate are then determined. Further, a steering control value that corresponds to the initial steering angle and the sensitivity of the steering angle are determined.
