A vehicle integrated controller includes an in-vehicle communication module configured to communicate with at least one controller mounted on the vehicle; a collection module configured to collect collection information including controller information, which is information on the at least one controller, through the in-vehicle communication module; and an aging abnormality processor configured to calculate an aged state or an abnormal state of the at least one controller based on the collection information, and when there exists a controller (hereinafter, “control target controller”) in the aged state or abnormal state among the at least one controller, calculate a value of a control parameter for the control target controller to maintain basic performance.

Provided herein is a system and method of a vehicle that communicates an intended action of the vehicle. The system comprises one or more sensors; one or more processors; and a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, causes the system to perform capturing data from the one or more sensors of another vehicle or a road condition; determining an intended action of the vehicle based on the captured data; simulating the intended action of the vehicle on a map; communicating, within the vehicle, the intended action of the vehicle; and navigating the vehicle based on the intended action of the vehicle.

There is presented a method for controlling an activation threshold of a safety system of a vehicle. The method comprises receiving map data from a remote data repository, said map data comprising a geographical location of a dynamic object located in a surrounding area of an expected path of the vehicle, determining a geographical location of the vehicle by means of a localization system of the vehicle, and lowering an activation threshold value of the safety system when the geographical location of the vehicle is within a predefined distance from the dynamic object. The presented method provides for an efficient means for preparing e.g. an emergency brake assist system of a vehicle in potentially critical situations.

The invention relates to a motor vehicle having a positioning system for determining the position (and for example the orientation) of the motor vehicle, wherein the motor vehicle comprises a communication interface for reading in parking space information (via a wireless communication system), wherein the parking space information comprises the position of the parking space and for example the size of the parking space, wherein the motor vehicle comprises a tracking module for determining the position of the parking space in relation to the position (as well as for example the orientation) of the motor vehicle as well as an image generator for determining the position of a virtual image component on a transparent display (of the motor vehicle) depending on the position of the parking space in relation to the position (as well as for example the orientation) of the motor vehicle.

Systems, methods, and devices for authenticating vehicle-to-vehicle communication are disclosed. A method includes receiving sensor data from a first vehicle and receiving secondary sensor data from a second vehicle. The method includes extracting, based on the sensor data and the secondary sensor data, an authentication comprising one or more of: a proximity of the second vehicle to the first vehicle or a common object identified by the sensor data and the secondary sensor data. The method includes determining whether the authentication satisfies a trust threshold of the first vehicle.

A system comprises a computer having a processor and a memory, the memory storing instructions executable by the processor to access sensor data of a first sensor of a vehicle while an adaptive cruise control feature of the vehicle is active, detect, based on the sensor data of the first sensor, a stationary object located along a path of travel of the vehicle, wherein the stationary object is located outside of a range of a second sensor of the vehicle, determine a presence of an intersection within a threshold distance of the stationary object that is along the path of travel of the vehicle, and responsive to a determination that the stationary object is a stopped vehicle of the intersection, adjust, by the adaptive cruise control feature, the speed of the vehicle.

An electronic device attached to a vehicle and a control method therefor are disclosed. A control method for an electronic device attached to a vehicle according to the present invention comprises the steps of: acquiring driving information from a sensor included in a vehicle while the vehicle is running; determining a dangerous event having occurred while the vehicle is running, on the basis of the acquired driving information; and providing an image associated with the determined dangerous event, on the basis of information associated with the determined dangerous event from among the driving information. Accordingly, an electronic device attached to a vehicle provides an image relating to a situation in which a dangerous event is expected to occur, on the basis of detected driving information. Through the provided image, a vehicle driver can develop safe driving habits.

A vehicular control system includes a plurality of sensors that include at least a camera and a 3D point-cloud LIDAR. As the vehicle travels along a road, and responsive at least in part to processing at an electronic control unit of 3D point-cloud LIDAR data captured by the 3D point-cloud LIDAR, the vehicular control system (a) determines presence of a pedestrian or cross traffic vehicle present exterior of the vehicle that (i) is not on the road that is being travelled along by the vehicle and is approaching the road to cross the road ahead of the vehicle and (ii) is at least in the field of sensing of the 3D point-cloud LIDAR and (b) at least in part controls at least one vehicle function of the vehicle responsive at least in part to the determined presence of the pedestrian or cross traffic vehicle.

Vehicles may have the capability to navigate according to various levels of autonomous capabilities, the vehicle having a different set of autonomous competencies at each level. In certain situations, the vehicle may shift from one level of autonomous capability to another. The shift may require more or less driving responsibility from a human operator. Sensors inside the vehicle collect human operator parameters to determine an alertness level of the human operator. An alertness level is determined based on the human operator parameters and other data including historical data or human operator-specific data. Notifications are presented to the user based on the determined alertness level that are more or less intrusive based on the alertness level of the human operator and on the urgency of an impending change to autonomous capabilities. Notifications may be tailored to specific human operators based on human operator preference and historical performance.
