Abstract

Provided is an autonomous driving assistance system for vehicles that has redundancy without posing any problem in diversity. The autonomous driving assistance system includes: a sensor configured to acquire surroundings information; a downstream device including an actuator configured to control a vehicle; and a driving assistance device configured to calculate a control amount for the downstream device on the basis of the surroundings information. The downstream device further includes a diagnosis unit configured to: perform comparison between at least two control amounts that include the control amount calculated in the driving assistance device and a control amount calculated in the downstream device on the basis of the surroundings information; and determine, if the control amounts are equal to each other, that the control amounts are normal, and determine, if the control amounts are different from each other, that the control amounts are abnormal.
