Redundant vehicle controls based on user presence and position

Redundant vehicle controls based on user presence and position are disclosed herein. A method can include determining a presence and a position of a driver in a sensing zone of a vehicle using a sensor platform integrated into the vehicle. The sensing zone is associated with a primary driving interface of the vehicle. Determining when the position of the driver indicates that the driver is not in a fully-seated position relative to a driver's seat of the vehicle, and that the vehicle is in a non-seated drive mode where the driver is permitted to operate the vehicle while not being in the fully-seated position. Activating a secondary driving interface of the vehicle when the driver is not in a fully-seated position and the vehicle is in the selected driving mode. The secondary driving interface can be used in combination with the primary driving interface.

PLANNING-AWARE PREDICTION FOR CONTROL-AWARE AUTONOMOUS DRIVING MODULES

A method of generating an output trajectory of an ego vehicle includes recording trajectory data of the ego vehicle and pedestrian agents from a scene of a training environment of the ego vehicle. The method includes identifying at least one pedestrian agent from the pedestrian agents within the scene of the training environment of the ego vehicle causing a prediction-discrepancy by the ego vehicle greater than the pedestrian agents within the scene. The method includes updating parameters of a motion prediction model of the ego vehicle based on a magnitude of the prediction-discrepancy caused by the at least one pedestrian agent on the ego vehicle to form a trained, control-aware prediction objective model. The method includes selecting a vehicle control action of the ego vehicle in response to a predicted motion from the trained, control-aware prediction objective model regarding detected pedestrian agents within a traffic environment of the ego vehicle.

Autonomous driving control device

An object of the present invention is to enhance the reliability of an autonomous driving system. The autonomous driving system includes: a higher-level control device 1 that outputs a control target value of an actuator group based on an action plan of a vehicle; and a lower-level control device 2 that controls the actuator group of the vehicle based on a command from the higher-level control device 1. The lower-level control device 2 holds the control target value of the vehicle provided by the higher-level control device 1 over a specific period. When the higher-level control device 1 does not satisfy a desired function, the lower-level control device 2 is configured to be controlled based on the held control target value. The action plan is followed by determining and correcting a difference between an actual action value and the control target value of the vehicle.
