AUTONOMOUS DRIVING SYSTEM AND AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE

An autonomous driving system includes a plurality of sensor combinations and a plurality of edge nodes, each of the plurality of sensor combinations includes at least one sensor; the plurality of edge nodes are in a one-to-one correspondence with the plurality of sensor combinations; and a first edge node in the plurality of edge nodes is configured to determine first perception information of a vehicle based on data collected by a first sensor combination corresponding to the first edge node. A central node is connected to the plurality of edge nodes. The central node is configured to delegate a first state decision function to the first edge node so that the first edge node determines that the vehicle enters a first state or determines a first driving policy of the vehicle in the first state by executing the first state decision function.
