The present invention relates to a driver footrest device for an autonomous vehicle, wherein a footrest for allowing a driver to secure a comfortable sitting posture during autonomous driving is provided to solve discomfort caused by a driving posture during long-term driving and to secure concentration on safe driving. Realized is a driver footrest device for an autonomous vehicle, comprising: an autonomous driving entry determination part for determining whether or not autonomous driving has entered; a footrest control part for, if the autonomous driving entry determination part determines that autonomous driving is performed, generating a movement control signal for moving the footrest, and generating a movement control signal for restoring the footrest to the original position thereof if autonomous driving is released; a position sensor for detecting the position of the footrest and transmitting the same to the footrest control part; and a first and a second position actuator for lifting and lowering the footrest according to the movement control signal generated by the footrest control part.

    자율주행 시 운전자가 편안한 착좌 자세를 확보할 수 있는 풋레스트(footrest)를 제공하여, 장시간 운전 시 운전 자세로 인해 발생할 수 있는 불편함을 해소하고 안전 운전 집중도를 확보할 수 있도록 한 자율주행차량의 운전자 풋레스트장치에 관한 것으로서, 자율주행 진입 유무를 판단하는 자율주행 진입 판단부, 자율주행 진입 판단부에 의해 자율주행으로 판단되면, 풋레스트를 이동시키는 이동 제어신호를 발생하고, 자율주행이 해제되면 풋레스트를 원래의 위치로 복원하는 이동 제어신호를 발생하는 풋레스트 제어부, 풋레스트의 위치를 감지하여 풋레스트 제어부에 전달하는 위치 센서, 및 풋레스트 제어부에서 발생하는 이동 제어신호에 따라 풋레스트를 승 하강시키는 제1 및 제2 위치 액추에이터를 포함하여, 자율주행차량의 운전자 풋레스트장치를 구현한다.
