1. A method for an unmanned driving vehicle avoiding an obstacle, implemented by a computer on the unmanned driving vehicle, comprising:
obtaining size information of the vehicle;
obtaining a safe distance in a traveling direction of the vehicle;
determining an obstacle screening area of the vehicle at least based on the size information and the safe distance; and
determining an obstacle avoiding path of the vehicle in response to determining that the obstacle is located in the obstacle screening area, and controlling the unmanned driving vehicle according to the obstacle avoiding path;
wherein determining the obstacle avoiding path of the vehicle further comprises:
obtaining a detecting area around the vehicle from a sensor; and
recognizing an obstacle in an overlapping area between the detecting area and the obstacle screening area, and not recognizing any obstacle in an area in a non-overlapping area between the detecting area and the obstacle screening area.
