SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR NAVIGATING A VEHICLE AMONG ENCROACHING VEHICLES
Systems and methods use cameras to provide autonomous navigation features. In one implementation, a method for navigating a user vehicle may include acquiring, using at least one image capture device, a plurality of images of an area in a vicinity of the user vehicle; determining from the plurality of images a first lane constraint on a first side of the user vehicle and a second lane constraint on a second side of the user vehicle opposite to the first side of the user vehicle; enabling the user vehicle to pass a target vehicle if the target vehicle is determined to be in a lane different from the lane in which the user vehicle is traveling; and causing the user vehicle to abort the pass before completion of the pass, if the target vehicle is determined to be entering the lane in which the user vehicle is traveling.

Braking control method, braking system and vehicle
A braking control method for a braking system of a vehicle is provided according to an exemplary embodiment of the disclosure. The braking control method comprises: obtaining a total braking distance and a first speed of the vehicle; obtaining braking delay information related to the braking system, wherein the braking delay information includes first time information and second time information, the first time information reflects a delay time of a braking signal, and the second time information reflects a preparation time for performing a braking operation according to the braking signal by the braking system; obtaining deceleration information according to the total braking distance, the first speed and the braking delay information; generating the braking signal according to the deceleration information; and performing the braking operation according to the braking signal.
METHOD AND SUBSYSTEM FOR CONTROLLING AN AUTONOMOUS BRAKING SYSTEM FOR A VEHICLE
A control system for a subject vehicle includes an autonomous braking system, a forward monitoring sensor and a rearward monitoring sensor. The controller monitors a first speed of a first vehicle travelling in front of the subject vehicle and a second speed of a second vehicle travelling to the rear of the subject vehicle. A first gap-closing time is determined based upon the speed of the subject vehicle and the first speed of the first vehicle. A second gap-closing time is determined based upon the speed of the subject vehicle and the second speed of the second vehicle. The controller controls the speed of the subject vehicle based upon the first gap-closing time and the second gap-closing time when one of the first gap-closing time or the second gap-closing time is less than a first threshold time.
METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DISTANCE CONTROL OF A SUBJECT VEHICLE
A method for distance control of a subject vehicle in relation to a front vehicle. The method includes setting, by an adaptive cruise control of the subject vehicle, an automatic distance control mode, wherein: a front object in front of the subject vehicle is detected by an environmental detection system of the subject vehicle, the front object is recognized as the front vehicle, and a distance to the front vehicle is regulated to an adaptive cruise control (ACC) target distance. The method further includes establishing that a safe following driving situation is present based on at least one criteria being met. The method additionally includes outputting, to a driver upon establishing that the safe following driving situation is present, a display signal, and setting, upon input of a confirmation signal by the driver, an automatic distance control platooning mode.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR AUTOMATICALLY DETECTING ERRATIC BEHAVIOUR OF ANOTHER VEHICLE WITH A VEHICLE'S AUTONOMOUS DRIVING SYSTEM
Systems and methods for implementing one or more autonomous features for autonomous and semi-autonomous control of one or more vehicles are provided. More specifically, image data may be obtained from an image acquisition device and processed utilizing one or more machine learning models to identify, track, and extract one or more features of the image utilized in decision making processes for providing steering angle and/or acceleration/deceleration input to one or more vehicle controllers. In some instances, techniques may be employed such that the autonomous and semi-autonomous control of a vehicle may change between vehicle follow and lane follow modes. In some instances, at least a portion of the machine learning model may be updated based on one or more conditions.
