APPARATUS AND METHOD OF SHARING A SENSOR IN A MULTIPLE SYSTEM ON CHIP ENVIRONMENT
Examples disclosed herein provide mechanisms for controlling a sensor in a multiple System on Chip (SoC) environment that allows one of the multiple System on Chips to be selected as a host System on Chip. The host System on Chip may lock the sensor to apply setting updates only from the host System on Chip that has locked the sensor. This lock may be broadcast to all sensors over an embedded data channel sent to all System on Chips receiving the sensor data. In addition, a safety monitor may be included to detect if the host System on Chip is functioning properly so that another System on Chip may be selected as a new host System on Chip.

Controlling vehicle functions
A system for controlling autonomously-controllable vehicle functions of an autonomous vehicle cooperating with partner subjects includes a database device with information on communication signals from partner subjects, action objectives, and scenarios, and has an autonomous vehicle with autonomously controllable vehicle functions communicatively connected to the database device. The autonomous vehicle includes a control device with a programmable unit and a surround sensor device. The control device receives sensor signals acquired by the surround sensor device of a surrounding area of the vehicle and communication signals originating from at least one partner subject. The control device determines a situation context based on the database information, and converts the captured communication signals into control signals for the autonomously controllable vehicle functions based on the situation context.
Multi-object tracking for autonomous vehicles
A method and system for multi-object tracking is set forth. Object data for boundaries of a plurality of objects are received. Poisson multi-Bernoulli mixture filtering is performed on the object data to form a filtered set of object data. Ultimately, the filtered set of object data is used to control the operation of the vehicle. Identifiers and probabilities are associated with the objects to reduce the set of object data.
Driver assistance system for a motor vehicle
A driver assistance system for motor vehicles, including at least one sensor for detecting object properties of objects which are located in the surroundings of the motor vehicle; a first interface; an output unit for transmitting the object properties to a user; and a control unit. The sensor transmits the object properties in a form of a first signal to the first interface. The first interface transmits the object properties, received in the form of the first signal, to the control unit in the form of a second signal, the control unit being configured to forward the object properties, received in the form of a second signal, to the output unit and to control the output of the object properties by the output unit.

INTELLIGENT VEHICLE SAFETY DRIVING ENVELOPE RECONSTRUCTION METHOD BASED ON INTEGRATED SPATIAL AND DYNAMIC CHARACTERISTICS
Provided is an intelligent vehicle safety driving envelope reconstruction method on the basis of integrated spatial and dynamic characteristics. Starting from simulating an actual driver's estimation of potential collision risks in the forward driving area, a prediction result of a front vehicle driving behavior is introduced to an environment perception link of the intelligent vehicle; on the basis of the prediction result of the front vehicle driving behavior, a safety driving envelope of the intelligent vehicle is reconstructed by integrating spatial and dynamic characteristics (a safety environment envelope reconstruction and a stable control envelope reconstruction), so as to improve the safety and stability of intelligent vehicle. First, based on the prediction of the front vehicle driving behavior, a lateral and a longitudinal distance between the intelligent vehicle and the front vehicle are corrected, to realize the envelop reconstruction of the safety environment of the intelligent vehicle and to improve the safety of intelligent vehicle. Then, on the basis of the reconstructed safety environment envelope and an dynamical model of the intelligent vehicle, the stable control envelope of the intelligent vehicle is reconstructed, so as to improve the stability of the intelligent vehicle.
