Automated vehicular damage detection
11568687 · 2023-01-31 · ·

Described herein are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media for evaluating vibrational characteristics of a vehicle such as an autonomous vehicle and vibrational characteristics of a road surface in conjunction with one another to identify anomalous vehicle vibrational characteristics that may be indicative of potential damage to the structure of a vehicle. A baseline vibrational signature may be generated for a road segment based on sensor data received from multiple vehicles traversing the road segment. A vibrational signature may also be generated for a particular vehicle being evaluated based on real-time sensor data. If the vibrational signature for the vehicle deviates from the baseline vibrational signature for the road segment by more than a threshold amount, the vehicle may be deemed to be exhibiting anomalous vibrational characteristics indicative of potential vehicular damage. One or more actions in response thereto may then be taken such as automatically halting the vehicle.

Controller for hybrid vehicle

A controller for a hybrid vehicle performs charging control when a shift range of the hybrid vehicle is a first range, and does not perform the charging control when the shift range of the hybrid vehicle is a second range, the charging control being control of charging a power storage device with electric power generated by a generator driven by an engine. The controller records diagnosis information when an SOC of the power storage device is equal to or lower than a first threshold value and the shift range of the hybrid vehicle is the first range, and does not record the diagnosis information when the SOC of the power storage device is equal to or lower than the first threshold value and the shift range of the hybrid vehicle is the second range.

Ranking fault conditions

A plurality of fault conditions are detected on a communication network onboard a vehicle. The detected fault conditions, a fault condition importance, environment conditions, and a vehicle operation mode are input to a neural network that outputs rankings for respective detected fault conditions. The neural network is trained by determining a loss function based on a maximum likelihood principle that determines a probability distribution that ranks the detected fault conditions. The vehicle is operated based on the rankings of the fault conditions.

METHOD(S) AND SYSTEM(S) TO ENABLE AN IMPROVED AUTOMATED ASSISTANT SUGGESTION SERVICE FOR VEHICLE(S)
20230230425 · 2023-07-20 ·

Implementations described herein relate to various techniques that enable an improved automated assistant suggestion service for vehicle(s). For example, implementations can initialize and perform a recurring system health check service to ensure a connection is maintained between at least an OEM application of an in-vehicle computing device of a given vehicle and the suggestion service accessible by the in-vehicle computing device of the given vehicle. By ensuring this connection is maintained, the suggestion service is less prone to failure and suggestion(s) may still be provided in situations when the suggestion service does fail. Additionally, or alternatively, implementations can utilize a versioning API to ensure compatibility between at least the OEM application and the suggestion service. By ensuring this compatibility, the suggestion service for the vehicle(s) is more robust to version updates and the applications need not be fully compatible.
