AUTONOMOUS DRIVING CONTROL APPARATUS AND METHOD

Disclosed is an autonomous driving control apparatus which includes a steering device, a memory, and a controller. The autonomous driving control apparatus determines a user required torque received through the steering device, while controlling a host vehicle based on a required steering angle, determines a torque sensor value corresponding to the user required torque, using the steering device, adjusts an amount of control attenuation about a usage ratio between the required steering angle and the user required torque, based on the torque sensor value, and performs steering control of the host vehicle, based on at least one of the required steering angle, the user required torque, or the amount of control attenuation, or any combination thereof.
