Patent ID: 8442699

Claim:
A vehicle integrated control system comprising: a plurality of control units operating autonomously for controlling a running state of a vehicle based on a manipulation request, the plurality of control units comprising at least a driving system control unit that controls an acceleration of the vehicle and a brake system control unit that controls a stopping of the vehicle, wherein each said driving system control unit and said brake system control unit comprises: a sensing unit for sensing an operation request with respect to at least one control unit, and a controller for controlling said vehicle by generating a control target based on a sensed request, and manipulating an actuator set in correspondence with each said control unit, using said control target; and a plurality of processing units operating autonomously from each other and each processing unit operating parallel to each said control unit for generating and providing to each said control unit information to be used to modify said operation request or said control target, as necessary, at each said control unit, wherein said plurality of processing units generate information processed such that said sensed request is shared among each said control unit, and at least one of said plurality of processing units comprise an automatic cruising sub-unit generating the information processed so as to be shared among said driving system control unit and said brake system control unit based on the information for implementation of automatic cruising or pseudo-automatic cruising of said vehicle.
