The present disclosure relates to a pull up controlling system of a vehicle for controlling the vehicle in a planned stop-and-go situation. The pull up controlling system determines a position of the vehicle and identifies a stop-and-go destination within a predeterminable distance from the vehicle position. The stop-and-go destination includes an interaction interface. The pull up controlling system provides a user input request relating to whether to discard or acknowledge the stop-and-go destination. The pull up controlling system receives intention data indicative of confirmation to acknowledge the stop-and-go destination. The pull up controlling system further derives preference data indicative of an openable section of the vehicle. The pull up controlling system maneuvers the vehicle to pull up at the stop-and-go destination, with the openable section aligned with the interaction interface.

A communication system for a vehicle, with a processor designed to determine a driving situation of the vehicle, and a communication interface designed to receive V2X communication data of a first additional vehicle, wherein the V2X communication data defines a driving situation of the first additional vehicle, wherein the processor is designed to detect a second additional vehicle which is located between the vehicle and the first additional vehicle on the basis of the determined driving situation of the vehicle and the driving situation of the first additional vehicle.

Disclosed herein is a method and arrangement for monitoring and adapting the performance of a fusion system of an autonomous road vehicle. A drivable area is determined by combining a localization function and high density map data. Information on surrounding objects is determined, comprising determining the localization and classifying the surrounding objects, estimating their physical property states, and assigning them extension descriptions. Information on the drivable area and surrounding objects is condensed into observed areas, monitored by sensors of the environmental perception function with a predetermined degree of certainty, and prioritized objects, represented by classes, state estimates and extension descriptions. Having the fusion system monitor itself retrospectively by evaluating its current determinations of drivable area, prioritized objects and observed areas against its previous determinations thereof, and if a previous determination differ more than a predetermined amount from a current determination, adapting the fusion system to account for that discrepancy.

A driving support apparatus according to the invention estimates the position of a moving body by controlling a position estimation unit when the tracking-target moving body leaves a first area or a second area to enter a blind spot area and detects the position of the moving body by controlling a position detection unit when the moving body leaves the blind spot area to enter the first area or the second area. In this manner, the trajectory of the tracking-target moving body is calculated so that the trajectory of the moving body detected in the first area or the second area and the trajectory of the moving body estimated in the blind spot area are continuous to each other and driving support is executed based on the calculated trajectory of the tracking-target moving body.

A convoy travel apparatus for organizing a convoy of vehicles is provided. The convoy travel apparatus controls at least one of the convoy of vehicles to change lanes to a lane that is opposite to a merging lane when it is determined that the convoy of vehicles approaches a merge point of a multi-lane road and a currently traveling lane of the convoy of vehicles has the merge point. In such a lane change scheme, a vehicle having no communication device may merge into the multi-lane road without compromising a ride comfort of the convoy of vehicles.

A motor vehicle (2) is operated in conjunction with a barrier assembly (e.g., a passing gate). After reading an environment data record (UDS) from environment sensors (14) of the motor vehicle (2), the environment data record (UDS) is evaluated for an approach to a barrier assembly (4). A stopping data record (SDS) is determined which is indicative of a stopping position of the motor vehicle (2) in front of the barrier assembly (4). An interaction data record (IDS) associated with the barrier is determined which is indicative of an interaction with the barrier assembly (4) such as opening a driver window.

Disclosed is a display apparatus for vehicle comprising: a display unit; an interface unit; and a processor configured to receive information on a first object and a second object positioned outside a vehicle through the interface unit, and control the display unit to display a graphic object corresponding to the first object, when the second object is positioned between the vehicle and the first object.

A method for operating a motor vehicle, the motor vehicle being automatically accelerated and decelerated as a function of an instantaneous position and a predefinable target location, so that it comes to a standstill at the target location, including the following steps: a) accelerating the motor vehicle, in particular from a standstill, to a predefined setpoint velocity; b) up to a predefined first distance of the motor vehicle to the target location, decelerating the motor vehicle to a predefined rolling velocity; c) starting at a predefined second distance of the motor vehicle to the target location, decelerating the motor vehicle to a standstill, the second distance to the target location being smaller than the first distance.

A vehicle includes a detection section and a automated drive controller. The detection section detects actual behavior of the vehicle. The automated drive controller generates a automated drive action plan for the vehicle, issues an instruction relating to behavior of the vehicle based on the generated action plan to a drive source controller that controls a drive source of the vehicle, and compares predicted behavior of the vehicle predicted based on the issued instruction and actual behavior of the vehicle detected by the detection section. In cases where the predicted behavior of the vehicle and the actual behavior of the vehicle detected by the detection section differ from each other by more than a preset range, the automated drive controller issues an instruction to decelerate the vehicle to a brake device of the vehicle.

A vehicle is provided. The vehicle includes a camera configured to detect a target object in a parking space and a controller programmed to advance the vehicle into the parking space based on a yaw angle of the vehicle and a distance to the target object in response to the camera detecting the presence of the target object. The distance to the target object is based on a vector representing a boundary of the target object.
