Abstract
A wheel cleaning system for an autonomous driving apparatus includes the autonomous driving apparatus with wheels, capable of driving autonomously based on peripheral information, and a cleaning area for cleaning the wheels. The cleaning area has a cleaning mat for cleaning the wheels as the wheels turn to rub against the mat. The autonomous driving apparatus has a controller for controlling an operation of the autonomous driving apparatus so as to perform a cleaning process of the wheels in the cleaning area.
