In general, the subject matter described in this disclosure can be embodied in methods, systems, and program products for performing vehicle control. A computing system determines a difference between a recent rate of change and a historical rate of change of a rotating vehicle shaft of a vehicle during a vehicle race. The computing system determines that the difference between the recent rate of change of the rotating vehicle shaft and the historical rate of change of the rotating vehicle shaft satisfies a criteria for limiting vehicle power, wherein the computing system changes the criteria for limiting vehicle power during the vehicle race. The computing system sends a signal for receipt by a vehicle component of the vehicle, to cause the vehicle component to limit rotation of the rotating vehicle shaft.

A track for a track vehicle has sensor-receiving cavities disposed therein. Removeable sensors are placed in the sensor-receiving cavities for sensing characteristics of the track during operation.

An apparatus for assisting driving of a host vehicle includes: a camera mounted on the host vehicle and having a field of view outside of the host vehicle, the camera configured to acquire image data; and a controller configured to: process the image data, identify a speed limit of a road on which the host vehicle is driving and whether there is a speed enforcement for the host vehicle based on the image data; and provide information about the speed limit of the road to a driver of the host vehicle based on the speed limit of the road and whether there is the speed enforcement for the host vehicle. Thereby, the vehicle can be prevented from driving in excess of the speed limit.

The present invention obtains a controller and a control method capable of achieving appropriate cornering during cruise control of a straddle-type vehicle. In the controller and the control method according to the present invention, during the cruise control, in which acceleration/deceleration of the straddle-type vehicle is automatically controlled without relying on an accelerating/decelerating operation by a driver, an entry of a curved road is detected on the basis of a predicted route of the straddle-type vehicle, and the straddle-type vehicle is decelerated at a time point before the straddle-type vehicle reaches the entry.

A vehicle sharing system for use with a vehicle. The vehicle sharing system comprises: i) a lockbox mounted on an exterior of the vehicle, the lockbox including a vehicle key that opens a door of the vehicle; and ii) a vehicle sharing control module disposed in the interior of the vehicle. The vehicle sharing control module communicates with the lockbox in order to open a door associated with the lockbox in response to a first command message received from a mobile device associated with a user. The lockbox is mounted on a license plate holder of the vehicle and the license plate is mounted on the door of the lockbox.

A system for determining agricultural vehicle guidance quality includes an imaging device configured to capture image data depicting a plurality of crops rows present within a field as an agricultural vehicle travels across the field. Additionally, the system includes a controller communicatively coupled to the imaging device. As such, the controller configured to determine a guidance line for guiding the agricultural vehicle relative to the plurality of crop rows based on the captured image data. Furthermore, the controller is configured to determine a crop row boundary consistency parameter associated with one or more crop rows of the plurality of crop row present within a region of interest of the captured image data. Moreover, the controller is configured to determine a quality metric for the guidance line based on the crop row boundary consistency parameter.

One object of the present disclosure is to provide a technique capable of appropriately suppressing an excessive operation by a remote operator. The present disclosure relates to a remote driving system for controlling a vehicle that is a target of remote driving by the remote operator. The remote driving system executes the following two processes. The first process is a process of determining whether or not an evaluation value, which indicates a degree of likelihood of an excessive operation by the remote operator and is calculated from a shape or a state of a road, is larger than a threshold value. The second process is a process of controlling the vehicle so that a vehicle speed of the vehicle becomes lower than a vehicle speed limit determined based on the evaluation value when the evaluation value is larger than the threshold value.

Controlling the speed of a motor vehicle with an adaptive cruise control system in a curve can include dynamically adjusting the speed of the motor vehicle depending on the planned exit from the roundabout and the current position of the motor vehicle.
