Automatically adjustable partition wall for an autonomous vehicle
Systems and methods for automatically adjusting the interior cabin of an autonomous vehicle are provided. In one example embodiment, an autonomous vehicle can include a main body including a floor and a ceiling that at least partially define an interior cabin of the autonomous vehicle. The autonomous vehicle can include a partition wall that is movable within the interior cabin of the autonomous vehicle. The partition wall can extend between the floor to the ceiling of the main body. The autonomous vehicle can include a computing system configured to receive data indicative of one or more service assignments associated with the autonomous vehicle and to adjust a position of the partition wall within the interior cabin based at least in part on the one or more service assignments.
Partition member, vehicle, and electronic device
Provided are a partition member including a soundproof structure capable of efficiently insulating noise with a lightweight configuration, and an electronic device and a vehicle using the partition member. In the partition member including the soundproof structure, the soundproof structure includes a support body having an opening, and a membrane-like member that is fixed to an opening surface of the support body in which the opening is formed and that vibrates as noise is incident, and a rear surface plate fixed to the support body on a side opposite to the membrane-like member, and the soundproof structure absorbs a sound by a resonance structure formed by a rear surface space surrounded by the rear surface plate, the membrane-like member, and the support body and the membrane-like member, and insulates a sound having a frequency higher than a relative maximum resonance frequency at which a sound absorption coefficient becomes a relative maximum among resonance frequencies of the resonance structure. The relative maximum resonance frequency is set to be lower than a sound insulation target frequency set for noise. Furthermore, in a case where the sound insulation target frequency is indicated as fn and the relative maximum resonance frequency is indicated as fr, fn/fr is 1.05 to 1.50.
Modular autonomous-vehicle interior
The present disclosure is directed to a modular autonomous-vehicle interior. In particular, an autonomous vehicle can comprise an interior comprising a plurality of different and distinct regions. Each of the regions can comprise one or more mechanical interfaces associated therewith. The autonomous vehicle can also include, for each of one or more of the regions, at least one modular interior unit comprising an interior element and a base mechanically interfaced with the interior via the mechanical interface(s) associated with the region.
Location-based checklist interface for autonomous vehicle users
Systems and methods for controlling autonomous vehicles are provided. In one example embodiment, a computing system can obtain data indicative of a service assignment associated with an autonomous vehicle. The service assignment is indicative of a destination location. The computing system can determine a checklist associated with the destination location. The computing system can provide, for display via a display device, data indicative of a user interface. The user interface can present the checklist associated with the destination location. The computing system can obtain data indicative of user input associated with the checklist. The computing system can determine that the checklist has been completed based at least in part on the user input associated with the checklist. The computing system can, in response to determining that the checklist has been completed, cause the autonomous vehicle to initiate a motion control to travel to the destination location.
Distinct user and item delivery for autonomous vehicles
Systems and methods for controlling autonomous vehicles are provided. In one example embodiment, a computing system can obtain data indicative of a service assignment associated with an autonomous vehicle. The service assignment is indicative of a destination location to which to transport a user. The computing system can obtain data indicative of an item associated with the user that is to be transported to the destination location. The computing system can determine a first drop-off location for the user and a second drop-off location for the item based at least in part on the destination location. The first drop-off location for the user is different than the second drop-off location for the item. The computing system can cause the autonomous vehicle to initiate motion control to travel to the first drop-off location for the user and to travel to the second drop-off location for the item.
Safety System for Public Transit
Systems and methods described herein provide a safety system for use within an interior of a vehicle. The Safety System described herein may include a protection panel coupled to a support for a slider style protection interface.
AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE
A vehicle is switchable between autonomous driving and human driving, and includes a partition setting permission device. The partition setting permission device is set to permit setting of a partition that is a visual partition between occupants when the vehicle is autonomously driving. That is, the partition setting permission device does not operate during human driving. Therefore, when the vehicle is operated by human driving, a field of view is not obstructed by the partition. On the other hand, when the vehicle is autonomously driving, providing the partition makes it possible to secure a private space.
Automatically adjustable partition wall for an autonomous vehicle
Systems and methods for automatically adjusting the interior cabin of an autonomous vehicle are provided. In one example embodiment, an autonomous vehicle can include a main body including a floor and a ceiling that at least partially define an interior cabin of the autonomous vehicle. The autonomous vehicle can include a partition wall that is movable within the interior cabin of the autonomous vehicle. The partition wall can extend between the floor to the ceiling of the main body. The autonomous vehicle can include a computing system configured to receive data indicative of one or more service assignments associated with the autonomous vehicle and to adjust a position of the partition wall within the interior cabin based at least in part on the one or more service assignments.
VEHICLE PARTITION
A vehicle partition configured to separate a first region and a second region of a vehicle cabin is provided. The vehicle partition may include a first panel member having a first attachment member configured to attach to a first seat of the vehicle cabin, a second panel member having a second attachment member configured to attach to a second seat of the vehicle cabin, and a third panel member connecting the first panel member to the second panel member. The first panel member may include a first panel and a first angled edge that is angled away from the first panel. The second panel member may include a second panel and a second angled edge that is angled away from the second panel.
