Work Vehicle
A work vehicle includes: a body; a traveling apparatus capable of a turning travel; a speed detector capable of detecting a vehicle speed; a steering tool manually operable to steer the traveling apparatus; a notification apparatus; and a controller. The controller is configured or programmed to control the traveling apparatus in response to a manual operation, with use of a travel control module; determine, based on a relationship between the vehicle speed and a steering angle of the steering tool, whether at least one of the vehicle speed and the steering angle needs to be reduced, with use of a determination module; and control the notification apparatus to give a notification of the determination by the determination module, with use of a notification module.
VEHICLE DRIVE ASSIST APPARATUS
Surrounding situation information of a vehicle is acquired. A steering torque applied by using a steering mechanism of the vehicle is detected. A steering angle and a steering direction of the vehicle are detected. Traveling control involving steering assist control is executed based on those pieces of information. In a case where a steering torque amount or the steering angle is detected, a new target lane keeping traveling path or a predetermined target lane departure prevention traveling path of the vehicle is created based on the steering torque amount, the steering angle, and the steering direction of the vehicle. In a case where the steering torque amount or the steering angle is detected again within a predetermined period, the new target lane keeping traveling path or the predetermined target lane departure prevention traveling path is set and traveling control is executed along the set traveling path.
VEHICLE SYSTEM HAVING AN ESC-FAULT-TOLERANT BRAKING SYSTEM
The disclosure relates to a vehicle system for a vehicle, in particular a commercial vehicle, that includes an electronically controllable pneumatic braking system, and an electronically controllable steering device. The electronically controllable pneumatic braking system has a redundant control unit, which controls the brake circuits in the event of a failure of an electronic stability control of the braking system during travel. In the event of the failure of the electronic stability control during travel, the redundant control unit performs axle-wise control of the front axle with a front axle redundancy brake pressure and/or of the rear axle with a rear axle redundancy brake pressure and the electronically controllable steering device carries out laterally stabilizing steering interventions in order to keep the vehicle in a tolerance corridor of a predefined target trajectory of the vehicle. The disclosure also relates to a vehicle and a method.
VEHICLE CONTROL FOR IMPROVED MINIMUM RISK MANEUVERS
A backup control unit for controlling motion of a heavy-duty vehicle during a minimum risk maneuver, where the backup control unit is arranged to receive data indicative of a planned sequence of vehicle control commands from a main vehicle control unit. The backup control unit comprises a first vehicle model configured to map the planned sequence of vehicle control commands into a desired vehicle behavior and is arranged to obtain a measured vehicle behavior from one or more vehicle sensors. Also, the back-up control unit is arranged to determine an adjusted sequence of vehicle control commands based on the planned sequence of vehicle control commands and on a deviation between the desired vehicle behavior and the measured vehicle behavior, and to transmit the adjusted sequence of vehicle control commands to a motion support device, MSD, control unit of the vehicle.
Driving Surface Friction Estimations Using Vehicle Steering
Systems and methods are provided for generating data indicative of a friction associated with a driving surface, and for using the friction data in association with one or more vehicles. In one example, a computing system can detect a stop associated with a vehicle and initiate a steering action of the vehicle during the stop. The steering action is associated with movement of at least one tire of the vehicle relative to a driving surface. The computing system can obtain operational data associated with the steering action during the stop of the vehicle. The computing system can determine a friction associated with the driving surface based at least in part on the operational data associated with the steering action. The computing system can generate data indicative of the friction associated with the driving surface.
Vehicle lane change control apparatus and method
A vehicle lane change control apparatus includes a condition information acquisition unit that acquires condition information of an occupant of a vehicle, a lane change rate database unit that stores a lane change rate that is determined based on a lane change pattern of a driver analyzed based on driving information when a lane of the vehicle is changed and road condition information when the lane of the vehicle is changed and indicates a speed of the lane change, and a control unit that changes the lane of the vehicle through steering control according to operation information of the vehicle, and based on the condition information of the occupant acquired by the condition information acquisition unit, controls the lane change of the vehicle by selectively using the lane change rate and a corrected lane change rate determined by increasing or decreasing the lane change rate.
VEHICLE CONTROL SYSTEM AND METHOD, COMPUTER DEVICE, MEDIUM, AND VEHICLE
The disclosure relates to a vehicle control system, a vehicle control method, a computer device, a computer-readable storage medium, and a vehicle. A vehicle control system according to an aspect of the disclosure includes: an autonomous driving control module configured to generate first planning information and second planning information in real time based on vehicle environment information, vehicle status information, and vehicle destination information, where the second planning information is used for safe parking; and a vehicle dynamic control module configured to receive the first planning information and the second planning information from the autonomous driving control module in real time, to generate a first control instruction based on the received first planning information or generate a second control instruction based on the received second planning information.
METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR VEHICLE TURNING IN CONFINED SPACES
Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture for vehicle turning in confined spaces are disclosed herein. An example apparatus disclosed herein instructions, at least one memory, a processor to execute the instructions to operate a first brake of a first wheel of a vehicle, operate a second brake of a second wheel of the vehicle, determine a frictional coefficient of a driving surface of the vehicle by rotating a third wheel of the vehicle, determine based on the frictional coefficient, if a turn command can be conducted by the vehicle, and when the turn command can be conducted, conduct the turn command.
Vehicle control system
A vehicle control system includes a controller circuit in communication with a steering sensor and one or more perception sensors. The steering sensor is configured to detect a steering torque of a steering wheel of a host vehicle. The one or more perception sensors are configured to detect an environment proximate the host vehicle. The controller circuit is configured to determine when an operator of the host vehicle requests a take-over from fully automated control of the host vehicle based on the steering sensor. The controller circuit classifies the take-over request based on the steering sensor.
