Abstract:
1. A driving schedule creating device for creating a driving schedule of a vehicle mounted with an onboard sensor for detecting an obstacle existing thereabout; the device comprising: an onboard sensor detection region acquiring unit for acquiring onboard sensor detectable regions as detectable regions of respective onboard sensors mounted in a plurality of vehicles; a driving schedule creating unit for creating the driving schedule of the vehicle according to the respective onboard sensor detectable regions of the onboard sensors mounted in the plurality of vehicles acquired by the onboard sensor detection region acquiring unit; and a temporary driving schedule creating unit for creating a temporary driving schedule of the vehicle; wherein the driving schedule creating unit evaluates according to the onboard sensor detectable regions of the respective onboard sensors mounted in the vehicles acquired by the onboard sensor detection region acquiring unit the temporary driving schedule created by the temporary driving schedule creating unit and employs the temporary driving schedule whose result of evaluation satisfies a predetermined standard as the driving schedule; and the temporary driving schedule satisfying the standard is a temporary driving schedule by which the onboard sensor detectable region or a region where the existence of an obstacle is estimatable according to information from the onboard sensor detectable region is made greater than that in another temporary driving schedule.
