Abstract:
A vehicle can safely transfer the control of a vehicle to a driver when a fault occurs in an autonomous navigation system. In particular, the vehicle includes: a first sensor to obtain front information of the vehicle; a second sensor to acquire peripheral information of the vehicle; a first controller to perform an autonomous driving function based on the front information; a second controller to perform the autonomous driving function based on the obtained front information and the peripheral information; and a communicator to transmit the front information and the peripheral information to the second controller. The first controller may stop the transmission of a control signal of the first controller when a failure has occurred in the first controller, and the second controller may stop the transmission of a control signal of the second controller when a failure occurs in the second controller.
