The present invention relates to a self-driving vehicle and to an infrastructure for supporting autonomous drive thereof. The self-driving vehicle according to the present invention receives information, wherein infrastructure-based sensor information such as infrastructure sensor information and traffic information, and vehicle sensor information selected by the infrastructure are integrated, from the external infrastructure. Accordingly, the self-driving vehicle according to the present invention can improve the performance of avoiding an obstacle, can improve the uncertainty of a sensor and can reduce the frequency of setting a route by overcoming the limitation of vehicle-centered autonomous drive. 본 발명은 자율 주행 차량 및 그것의 자율 주행을 지원하는 인프라에 관한 것이다. 본 발명의 자율 주행 차량은 외부에 위치한 인프라로부터 인프라 기반의 센서 정보들(일예로, 인프라 센서 정보, 교통 정보)과 인프라에 의해 선택된 차량 센서 정보를 융합시킨 정보를 제공받는다. 이를 통해, 본 발명의 자율 주행 차량은 차량 중심의 자율 주행의 한계성을 극복하여 장애물 회피 성능을 향상, 센서의 불확실성을 개선, 및 빈번한 경로 설정을 감소시킬 수 있다.
