Abstract
A control information conveyance structure comprises: a cognition-system control platform which recognizes the circumstances of the surroundings of a vehicle and generates a control space; an operation-system control platform which recognizes the circumstances related to the movement of the vehicle body and generates a control space; and a determination-system control platform which generates a determination control space based on information from the cognition-system and operation-system control platforms. The conveyance structure is constituted so that sensors and individual control devices belong to either or both of the control platforms. This control information conveyance structure is adopted. Thus, control platforms of such a control structure that the individual control devices are managed at a higher level can be provided.
