To provide a route searching device and a route searching method with which it is possible to provide a route that helps to reduce the number of times a driving mode is switched, to a vehicle equipped with an automatic driving device.SOLUTION: Provided is a route searching device used for a route search by an autonomous driving vehicle, capable of switching a driving mode between an autonomous driving mode in which the driving operation of a vehicle is automatically executed by an automatic driving device and a manual driving mode in which the driving operation of the vehicle is executed by a driver of the vehicle. The route searching device is constituted so as to comprise: an automatic driving route search unit for searching for a route that satisfies an automatic driving continuation condition to reduce the number of times the driving mode of the autonomous driving vehicle is switched between the autonomous driving mode and the manual driving mode, as a route for the autonomous driving vehicle when the autonomous driving vehicle travels; and a route output unit for outputting the searched route for the autonomous driving vehicle.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
【課題】自動運転装置を備えた車両に対し、運転モードの切り替え回数を減少させる経路を提供することができる経路探索装置および経路探索方法を提供すること。【解決手段】車両の運転操作を自動運転装置が自動的に実施する自動運転モードと車両の運転操作を車両の運転者が実施する手動運転モードとの間で運転モードを切り替え可能な自動運転車両の経路探索に用いる経路探索装置であって、出発地から目的地までに含まれる経路のうち、自動運転車両の運転モードが自動運転モードと手動運転モードとの間で切り替わる切り替え回数を減少させる自動運転継続条件を満たす経路を、自動運転車両が走行するときの自動運転車両用経路として探索する自動運転経路探索部と、探索した自動運転車両用経路を出力する経路出力部とを備えるよう、経路探索装置を構成する。【選択図】図1
