AUTONOMOUS DRIVING SYSTEM AND VEHICLE

An autonomous driving system and an autonomous vehicle are disclosed. The system includes a plurality of sensor combinations, where each of the plurality of sensor combinations includes at least one sensor; a plurality of edge nodes (120), where the plurality of edge nodes (120) 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; and a central node (110) connected to the plurality of edge nodes, where the central node (110) is configured to delegate a first state decision function to the first edge node in the plurality of edge nodes (120), 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. Execution of the first state decision function requires at least the first perception information. This reduces service execution time.
