A computer-implemented method for providing control data for at least one driver support system of a vehicle, or for at least one driving assistance system of the vehicle for supporting driving of the vehicle on a desired path through a curvature planning and steering, can comprise: obtaining suspension data of the vehicle, obtaining vehicle data of the vehicle, obtaining vehicle driving sensor data of the vehicle, determining a steering angle data based on the suspension data, the vehicle data, and the vehicle driving sensor data, and determining the control data for the at least one driver support system or the at least one driving assistance system based on the steering angle data and a curvature vehicle model.

In some examples, a controller receives measurement data from a sensor on a vehicle, determines, based on the measurement data, a condition of usage of the vehicle, and selects a parameter set from among a plurality of parameter sets based on the determined condition of usage of the vehicle, the plurality of parameter sets corresponding to different conditions of usage of the vehicle, where each parameter set of the plurality of parameter sets includes one or more parameters that control adjustment of one or more respective adjustable elements of the vehicle. The controller causes application of the selected parameter set on the vehicle.

A vehicle control apparatus is disclosed. The vehicle control apparatus includes a distance sensor configured to sense a distance from a speed bump, a speed sensor configured to sense a speed of a vehicle, a vehicle driver configured to control an operation of a brake or an operation of an accelerator, and a processor configured to provide an input parameter comprising a speed and a weight of the vehicle to a prediction model and control the vehicle driver so that the brake is operated at a braking intensity outputted from the prediction model when the vehicle enters the speed bump on the basis of the distance from the speed bump.

The invention relates to an autonomous driving control method, an autonomous driving control system, and a vehicle. The autonomous driving control method includes: estimating motion control capacities of a vehicle on the basis of performance parameters and/or structure parameters of the vehicle; grading autonomous driving functions of the vehicle on the basis of the motion control capacities; and providing the graded autonomous driving functions on the basis of a state of the vehicle. The autonomous driving control method of the invention can provide different grades of autonomous driving functions in different vehicle states, thereby improving driving experience.

Apparatus for controlling movement of a vehicle, a system and vehicle comprising the apparatus, and a method for controlling the movement of a vehicle are disclosed. The apparatus comprises a controller configured to receive first signals from a receiving means in dependence on received transmitted signals from a remote control device indicating a requested motion of a vehicle and to receive second signals indicative of a value of traction of the vehicle. A maximum speed value for the vehicle is determined in dependence on the value of traction of the vehicle and/or on one or both of the detected pitch and roll angles of the vehicle. The controller provides an output signal for controlling speed of the vehicle based on the requested motion. The output signal is limited dependent upon the maximum speed value determined by the controller.

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a driver assistance system for a vehicle, the system comprising one or more controllers and configured to: receive location information indicative of a location of the vehicle; determine, based on image data received from one or more imaging devices associated with the vehicle, one or more visible characteristics in an environment of the vehicle; determine, based at least in part on the location information and the visible characteristics, an availability of a remotely accessible feature of the vehicle; and output a signal indicative of the availability of the remotely accessible feature.

In some examples, a controller receives measurement data from a sensor on a vehicle, determines, based on the measurement data, a condition of usage of the vehicle, and selects a parameter set from among a plurality of parameter sets based on the determined condition of usage of the vehicle, the plurality of parameter sets corresponding to different conditions of usage of the vehicle, where each parameter set of the plurality of parameter sets includes one or more parameters that control adjustment of one or more respective adjustable elements of the vehicle. The controller causes application of the selected parameter set on the vehicle.

Vehicles may be composed of a relatively few number of “modules” that are assembled together during a final assembly process. An example vehicle may include a body module, a first drive module coupled to a first end of the body module, and a second drive module coupled to a second end of the body module. One or both of the drive modules may include a pair of wheels, a battery, an electric drive motor, and/or a heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system. One or both of the drive modules may also include a crash structure to absorb impacts. If a component of a drive module fails or is damaged, the drive module can be quickly and easily replaced with a new drive module, minimizing vehicle down time.

A device for controlling wheel slip of a vehicle includes: a displacement sensor for measuring a suspension displacement of drive wheels; and a controller configured to control braking of the drive wheels in consideration of the suspension displacement of the drive wheels when slip occurs on the drive wheels. The device may control braking of a slip-occurred wheel in consideration of a displacement of a suspension corresponding to the slip-occurred wheel of the vehicle.

A commercial vehicle with a cargo space includes a detection unit for detecting movement of a wheel suspension and/or an inertial measuring unit for detecting movements of a sprung mass of the vehicle in order to evaluate a loading state of cargo in the cargo space. To provide improved cargo capacity, improved user-friendliness, and improved driving behavior, the commercial vehicle has an optical signaling unit arranged in the cargo space which is electrically activatable using an evaluation electronics unit, wherein the evaluation electronics unit is configured to activate the signaling unit on the basis of signals of the detection unit and/or the inertial measuring unit which are generated upon placement of the cargo on a cargo surface of the cargo space in such a way that an optimum position of the cargo surface is displayable by means of the signaling unit.
