To provide a sensor cleaning device which can properly use air cleaning and liquid cleaning selectively, and has reduced influence of liquid-cleaning on automatic operation, and a sensor cleaning method and a sensor cleaning program.SOLUTION: An automatic operation control unit 20 controls automatic operation of a vehicle by using information on an object detected by an object detection unit 16. When a contamination detection unit 18 detects soil on sensor faces of a camera 12 as a sensor or a LiDAR 14 and also determines that cleaning with cleaning liquid, the automatic operation control unit outputs a command to clean the camera 12 or the LiDAR 14 with cleaning liquid to a cleaning control unit 22. The cleaning control unit 22 controls a cleaning actuator 24 so as to clean the sensor faces of the camera 12 or the LiDAR 14 by injecting cleaning liquid thereto following the command, and notifies the automatic operation control unit 20 that the sensor faces of the camera 12 or the LiDAR 14 are being cleaned with cleaning liquid.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2

    【課題】エア洗浄と液洗浄とを的確に使い分けると共に、液洗浄の自動運転への影響を抑制したセンサ洗浄装置、センサ洗浄方法及びセンサ洗浄プログラムを得る。【解決手段】自動運転制御部20は、物体検知部16で検知した物体の情報を用いて車両の自動運転を制御すると共に、汚れ検知部18がセンサであるカメラ12又はLiDAR14の各々のセンサ面の汚れを検知し、かつ洗浄液による洗浄が可能と判定した場合に、カメラ12又はLiDAR14を洗浄液で洗浄する指令を洗浄制御部22に出力する。洗浄制御部22は、当該指令に従ってカメラ12又はLiDAR14のセンサ面に洗浄液を噴射して洗浄するように洗浄アクチュエータ24を制御すると共に、カメラ12又はLiDAR14のセンサ面を洗浄液により洗浄中であることを自動運転制御部20に通知する。【選択図】図2
