An electronic device is disclosed. The electronic device comprises a communication interface, a memory in which a program for performing an autonomous driving function is stored, and a processor which performs second processing for first processed data on the basis of a first program stored in the memory, when the first processed data is received from an external sensor device through the communication interface, and which performs, on the basis of a second program stored in the memory, first processing for raw data received from the external sensor device, and then performs the second processing on the basis of the first program, when the occurrence of an error in the reception of the data is identified.

A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided for generating a transition variability index related to autonomous driving. In this regard, a first transition variability index is calculated. The first transition variability index is indicative of a first degree of variability in relation to transition of vehicles from respective autonomous levels while traveling proximate a first spatial reference point. Furthermore, a second transition variability index is generated. The second transition variability index is indicative of a second degree of variability in relation to transition of vehicles from respective autonomous levels while traveling along proximate a second spatial reference point. Updating of transition data associated with one of the first and second spatial reference points relative to another one of the first and second spatial reference points is then prioritized based on a comparison between the first transition variability index and the second transition variability index.

A system for displaying information is intended to be incorporated in a motor vehicle including at least a dashboard, a central console, a display screen on the central façade and a front windscreen. The display system includes a manual or automatic selection device for selecting among at least three display modes each containing information, being progressively off-centre with respect to the vehicle.

An abnormality detection device includes a sensor configured to detect an external environment of a vehicle and an electronic control unit configured to: detect a traveling state of the vehicle; acquire a control command value for the vehicle in automatic driving control, the vehicle being caused to travel automatically in the automatic driving control; determine, based on a difference between the traveling state and the control command value, whether the traveling state is abnormal; determine, based on a detection result from the sensor, whether the external environment is suitable for execution of the automatic driving control; and determine that an abnormality has occurred in an automatic driving system when it is determined that the traveling state is abnormal and it is determined that the external environment is suitable for the execution of the automatic driving control, the automatic driving system performing the automatic driving control.

A system includes a wireless monitor station. The wireless station monitors a region in which one or more vehicles frequent such as automobiles, trains, etc. The wireless station receives a wireless communication indicating presence of a first vehicle in the monitored region. The first communication includes a unique identifier value assigned to the first vehicle. Based on detected presence of the first vehicle in the monitored region, the wireless station controls traffic flow associated with the monitored region.

A system for reconstructing a vehicular crash (i) receives sensor data of a vehicular crash from at least one mobile device associated with a user; (ii) generates a scenario model of the vehicular crash based upon the received sensor data; (iii) transmits the scenario model to a user computer device associated with the user; (iv) receives a confirmation of the scenario model from the user computer device; (v) stores the scenario model; and (vi) may generate at least one insurance claim form based upon the scenario model. As a result, the speed and accuracy of the claim processing is increased. The system may also utilize vehicle occupant positional data, and internal and external sensor data to detect potential imminent vehicle collisions, take corrective actions, automatically engage autonomous or semi-autonomous vehicle features, and/or generate virtual reconstructions of the vehicle collision.

A vehicle system includes an electronic control unit. The electronic control unit is configured to execute a first program, a second program, and a third program. The first program is configured to recognize an object present around a vehicle, the second program is configured to store information related to the recognized object as time-series map data, and the third program is configured to predict a future position of the object based on the stored time-series map data. The first program and the third program are configured to be (i) first, individually optimized based on first training data corresponding to output of the first program and second training data corresponding to output of the third program, and (ii) then, collectively optimized based on the second training data corresponding to the output of the third program.

A vehicle configured to operate in an autonomous mode is provided. The vehicle is configured to obtain an indication of a final destination, and, if the final destination is not on a pre-approved road for travel by the vehicle, the vehicle is configured to determine a route from the vehicle's current location to an intermediary destination. The vehicle is further configured to determine a means for the vehicle user to reach the final destination from the intermediate destination.

High-performance road vehicle having: a plurality of replaceable or removable components; a control unit that supervises the operation of the road vehicle; at least one electronic identification device, which is fitted on a corresponding component, has a memory designed to contain at least one unique identifying code of the component and has a first transmission organ designed to send the data contained in the memory; and a second transmission organ designed to communicate with the first transmission organ and connected to the control unit to allow the control unit to interact with the electronic identification device.

A method for controlling a vehicle includes providing a plurality of sensors and a control at an equipped vehicle and identifying a driver present in the vehicle and capable of operating the vehicle. When the control is not operating in a driving assist mode and the identified driver is operating the vehicle, and responsive to processing data received at the data processor, a personalized parameter set is created for the identified driver based on how the identified driver operates the equipped vehicle during determined driving conditions. When the control is operating in a driving assist mode, and responsive to a current driving condition of the vehicle, the vehicle is controlled (i) in accordance with the personalized parameter set for the identified driver present in the equipped vehicle and (ii) in accordance with data processing of data captured by at least some of the plurality of sensors.
