AUTONOMOUS DRIVING CONTROL METHOD AND DEVICE

A method for controlling autonomous driving in an autonomous vehicle includes detecting a situation in which autonomous driving is impossible while the vehicle operates in an autonomous driving mode, outputting a control-right handover request warning alarm and then activating a minimal risk maneuver driving mode, determining a human driver gaze validity based on the detected situation, determining a human driver intervention validity upon determination that the human driver gaze is valid, and determining control-right handover of the autonomous vehicle based on the human driver intervention validity. Thus, the control-right may be reliably transferred from a system to a human driver.
