Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A problem to be solved by the present invention is, while utilizing hardware of an autonomous vehicle which travels using a guideline, to easily control the location thereof without using the guideline. The present invention is a location detecting device which receives as input a deviation between a guideline and a chassis and outputs a deviation with respect to an autonomous vehicle which carries out an autonomous travel, said device configured with a means for retaining map data in which a location of an object is recorded, and data of a virtual guideline which is set upon the map, a sensor which measures the distance to an object in the vicinity, and a means for detecting a location from the result of the measurement of the sensor and the map data, wherein, on the basis of the detected location, said device outputs a deviation between the chassis and the virtual guideline.
