SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ENGAGING A DRIVER DURING AUTONOMOUS DRIVING MODE
The present subject matter relates to a method and system maintaining driver alertness while driving mode of a vehicle is changed from manual to autonomous driving mode. The system includes a monitoring module to detect a transition from a manual drive mode to an autonomous drive mode. Based on this, a driver monitoring module gets activated. The driver monitoring module once activated, monitors the driver alertness during the autonomous drive mode. The system further includes an interactive module, which is connected to the monitoring module that gets activated in case alertness level of the driver falls below a first threshold value. The first threshold value may be determined based on multiple attributes. Further, the interactive training program is deactivated if the alertness of the driver is equal or greater than a second threshold value.
GENERATING ENVIRONMENTAL PARAMETERS BASED ON SENSOR DATA USING MACHINE LEARNING
To generate a machine learning model for controlling autonomous vehicles, training sensor data is obtained from sensors associated with one or more vehicles, the sensor data indicative of physical conditions of an environment in which the one or more vehicles operate, and a machine learning (ML) model is trained using the training sensor data. The ML model generates parameters of the environment in response to input sensor data. A controller in an autonomous vehicle receives sensor data from one or more sensors operating in the autonomous vehicle, applies the received sensor data to the ML model to obtain parameters of an environment in which the autonomous vehicle operates, provides the generated parameters to a motion planner component to generate decisions for controlling the autonomous vehicle, and causes the autonomous vehicle to maneuver in accordance with the generated decisions.
Method for fabricating a vehicle interior trim part and vehicle interior trim part
The present application relates to a method for fabricating a vehicle interior trim part. The proposed method comprises the step of providing a glass panel with a backside and a first and a second region. In a further step, a first stiffener is attached to the first region of the glass panel. Thereby, a stiffened region of the glass panel is formed. The method further comprises the step of bending the second region of the glass panel by cold forming so that a bent region of the glass panel is formed in a region adjacent to the stiffened region. The method further comprises the step of holding the glass panel in shape using a means of fixation.
Road Vehicle and Method for Reengaging Manual Driving
A road vehicle including a transmitter of a real image of an exterior environment of the road vehicle, and a driving assistant including an assistance display, a driving automaton, and a mask able to evolve between a masking configuration and a non-masking configuration, the driving assistant toggling between a manual mode and an automatic mode of the driving automaton and being configured to implement a phase of reengagement of the manual mode, including a first time period, throughout all of which the mask is maintained in the masking configuration, the assistance display broadcasting a symbolic representation of the exterior environment, and a second time period throughout all of which the mask is maintained in the non-masking configuration.
Vehicle control device mounted on vehicle and method for controlling the vehicle
The present invention relates to a vehicle control device provided in a vehicle and a method of controlling the vehicle. A vehicle control device according to one embodiment of the present invention includes a processor to autonomously run a vehicle using driving information that the vehicle has traveled in a manual driving mode, wherein the driving information includes a start place where the manual driving mode is started, an end place where the manual driving mode is ended, and a travel route from the start place to the end place, wherein the processor autonomously runs the vehicle along the travel route from the start place to the end place when the vehicle has moved up to the start place through manual driving.
In-vehicle system
When the automobile is changed to the manual driving mode, the control device starts acceptance as the operation of the touch pad as an operation on the application system that displays the screen on the heads-up display, and when the automobile is in the autonomous driving mode, the control device starts acceptance of the operation of the touch pad as an operation on the application system that displays the screen on the center display.
Motion sickness reduction for in-vehicle displays
An example computing system of this disclosure includes a memory and processing circuitry in communication with the memory. The memory is configured to store a predictive movement model. The processing circuitry is configured to receive road condition information, to detect a discrepancy between the received road condition information and a portion of the predictive movement model, and to update the predictive movement model based on the received road condition information to correct the discrepancy. The processing circuitry is further configured to control one or more display devices in communication with the processing circuitry to adjust video data output by the one or more display devices based on the updated predictive movement model.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR INITIATING AND EXECUTING AN AUTOMATED LANE CHANGE MANEUVER
A system for initiating and executing an automated lane change maneuver in a vehicle may include a steering wheel interface having a display; and a monitor to detect a viewing direction of the user. The interface may detect a first predetermined gesture by the user; in response to the first predetermined gesture, transmit a first signal to the vehicle instructing the vehicle to prepare for the automated lane change maneuver; display a status of the automated lane change maneuver; display a prompt for the user to visually confirm safety of the automated lane change maneuver. The monitor may continuously detect the viewing direction of the user; and in response to the viewing direction of the user changing, transmit a second signal to the vehicle instructing the vehicle to execute the automated lane change maneuver.
DISPLAY SYSTEM AND DISPLAY METHOD
A vehicle situation that can occur at a later time than the current time is displayed on a first display device, a second display device, and a third display device, and display content is controlled so that a display content of the second display device includes a vehicle situation that can occur at a later time than the vehicle situation displayed on the first display device, and a display content of the third display device includes a vehicle situation that can occur at a later time than the vehicle situation displayed on the second display device.
