Data is received regarding vehicle braking events, each event occurring on one of a plurality of vehicles, and each event associated with a location. A determination is made that the braking events correspond to a pattern. Based on determining that the braking events correspond to the pattern, a first location is identified. In response to identifying the first location, at least one action is performed.

The safety device comprises a vehicle body inclination angle detector to detect an inclination angle of the vehicle body. In a vehicle body attitude in which the inclination angle of the vehicle body detected by the vehicle body inclination angle detector is less than a predetermined inclination angle, while any travel operation by the travel operation device is not performed, when a steering operation by the steering operation device is performed, the travel controller performs control to release braking the front wheels and the rear wheels by the brake device and to make the steering device turn the front wheels and the rear wheels in accordance with the steering operation.

An automatic steering control apparatus includes a target-path acquisition unit that acquires a target path that is to be a traveling path of the vehicle, a target-rudder-angle acquisition unit that acquires a target rudder angle that is to be a rudder angle in the vehicle, on the basis of the target path, a sideslip-angle estimation unit that estimates a sideslip angle in the vehicle that is traveling at the target rudder angle, on the basis of the target rudder angle and a vehicle condition of the vehicle, and an automatic steering control unit. The automatic steering control unit performs at least one of stopping of automatic steering control and controlling of a steering-quantity regulation gain for regulating the target rudder angle, when the estimated sideslip angle is equal to or greater than a predetermined value.

Data is received regarding vehicle braking events, each event occurring on one of a plurality of vehicles, and each event associated with a location. A determination is made that the braking events correspond to a pattern. Based on determining that the braking events correspond to the pattern, a first location is identified. In response to identifying the first location, at least one action is performed.

A method for operating a soil processing machine includes a) providing an extent of steering-driving speed relationship reflecting a maximum permissible driving speed of the soil processing machine as a function of the extent of steering, b) detecting an actual extent of steering of the soil processing machine, c) setting a driving speed of the soil processing machine in such a way that the driving speed does not exceed the maximum permissible driving speed assigned to the actual extent of steering in accordance with the extent of steering-driving speed relationship provided in measure a).

A work machine stability monitoring system may include an environmental sensor configured to capture environmental information about the ground around a work machine, a machine operating sensor configured to capture operation information of the work machine, and a stability analyzer. The stability analyzer may be configured receiving the environmental information and the operation information, prospectively identifying zones with stability issues based on the environmental information, and identifying active stability conditions of the work machine based on the operation information.

A computing device configured to: obtain images representative of an environment of a host vehicle, the host vehicle traveling on a roadway; detect, from the images, a mark located on the roadway; identify, from the images, points corresponding to the mark on the roadway; identify the mark as a type of roadway marking, corresponding to the identified points, the type of roadway marking selected from multiple types of roadway markings; determine a position of the mark on the roadway relative to the host vehicle, using the identified points corresponding to the mark; and determine a trajectory to navigate the host vehicle on the roadway, based on the position of the mark within the roadway and the type of roadway marking.

A method and system for compensating for vehicle disturbances during vehicle operation, including: an algorithm for obtaining predicted driving condition data from a database, wherein the database includes one or more of geospatial data and remote vehicle data; an algorithm for obtaining real-time vehicle state data from equipment communicatively connected to a vehicle; an algorithm for combining the predicted driving condition data and the real-time vehicle state data to formulate a desired steering torque request necessary to compensate for predicted and actual driving conditions experienced by the vehicle; and an algorithm for providing the desired steering torque request to a power steering assist system of the vehicle to compensate for the predicted and actual driving conditions experienced by the vehicle.

A control method is provided for controlling a lateral position of a motor vehicle. The control method includes calculating a sighting distance of a detector means embedded in the vehicle, calculating a first component of a steering angle setpoint of a steered wheels of the vehicle, and calculating a second component of the steering angle setpoint. The first component is an open loop component of a control system, while the second component is a closed loop component of the control system. The first component is weighted by a gain that is a decreasing function of the sighting distance.
