An autonomous vehicle (AV) includes features that allows the AV to comply with applicable regulations and statues for performing safe driving operation. An example system for an AV includes obtaining, by a computer located in the AV, an image from a camera located on the AV, where the image characterizes an area towards which the AV is driven on a lane on a road or a highway; determining, from the image, that a pedestrian or a cyclist is located next to the lane on the road or the highway; and in response to the determining, performing driving operations on the AV such as steering from a center of the lane to a first side of the lane that is away from the center of the lane and away from a location of the pedestrian or the cyclist, and/or slowing down the AV in response to certain conditions.

Embodiments for operational envelope detection (OED) with situational assessment are disclosed. Embodiments herein relate to an operational envelope detector that is configured to receive, as inputs, information related to sensors of the system and information related to operational design domain (ODD) requirements. The OED then compares the information related to sensors of the system to the information related to the ODD requirements, and identifies whether the system is operating within its ODD or whether a remedial action is appropriate to adjust the ODD requirements based on the current sensor information. Other embodiments are described and/or claimed.

This disclosure describes an autonomous vehicle configured to obtain sensor data associated with objects proximate a projected route of the autonomous vehicle, determine static constraints that limit a trajectory of the autonomous vehicle along the projected route based on non-temporal risks associated with a first subset of the f objects, predict a position and speed of the autonomous vehicle as a function of time along the projected route based on the static constraints, identify temporal risks associated with a second subset of the objects based on the predicted position and speed of the autonomous vehicle, determine dynamic constraints that further limit the trajectory of the autonomous vehicle along the projected route to help the autonomous vehicle avoid the temporal risks associated with the second subset of the objects, and adjust the trajectory of the autonomous vehicle in accordance with the static constraints and the dynamic constraints.

In various examples, a trigger signal may be received that is indicative of a vehicle maneuver to be performed by a vehicle. A recommended vehicle trajectory for the vehicle maneuver may be determined in response to the trigger signal being received. To determine the recommended vehicle trajectory, sensor data may be received that represents a field of view of at least one sensor of the vehicle. A value of a control input and the sensor data may then be applied to a machine learning model(s) and the machine learning model(s) may compute output data that includes vehicle control data that represents the recommended vehicle trajectory for the vehicle through at least a portion of the vehicle maneuver. The vehicle control data may then be sent to a control component of the vehicle to cause the vehicle to be controlled according to the vehicle control data.

A driving assistance device configured to execute deceleration assistance for a driver's vehicle when the driver's vehicle turns right or left at an intersection is configured to recognize, based on a detection result from an external sensor of the driver's vehicle, an adjacent vehicle traveling in an adjacent lane adjacent to a traveling lane of the driver's vehicle, determine whether the adjacent vehicle turns in the same direction of the driver's vehicle at the intersection based on the detection result from the external sensor when the adjacent vehicle is recognized and the driver's vehicle turns right or left at the intersection, and execute the deceleration assistance to cause a vehicle-to-vehicle distance between the driver's vehicle and the adjacent vehicle to reach a distance equal to or larger than a target driver's vehicle-to-adjacent vehicle distance when the driving assistance device determines that the adjacent vehicle turns in the same direction.

Systems and methods for controlling navigation of an autonomous vehicle for making an unprotected turn while traversing an intersection. The methods may include identifying a loiter pose of an autonomous vehicle for stopping at a point in an intersection before initiating an unprotected turn, initiating navigation of the autonomous vehicle to the loiter pose when a traffic signal is at a first state, determining whether the traffic signal has changed to a second state during or after navigation of the autonomous vehicle to the loiter pose, and in response to determining that the traffic signal has changed to the second state, generating a first trajectory for navigating the autonomous vehicle to execute the unprotected turn if the expected time for moving the autonomous vehicle from a current position to a position when the autonomous vehicle has fully exited an opposing conflict lane is less than a threshold time.
