A system for ground plane cancellation, comprising an image data system configured to generate image data and associated coordinate data for pixels contained in the image data. A ground plane calculation system configured to generate ground plane coordinate data. A ground plane correction system configured to subtract pixels associated with the ground plane coordinate data from the image data.

A system for controlling operation of a vehicle during a turning maneuver includes an object detection sensor, a vehicle turning angle sensor, and a processor. A memory is communicably coupled to the processor and stores a turning alert zone module configured to determine if a speed of the vehicle is within a predetermined range of speeds and, if the speed of the vehicle is within the predetermined range of speeds, determine if a vehicle turning angle is above a predetermined threshold value. If the turning angle is above the predetermined threshold value, and using the turning angle, a turning alert zone is determined. The system may then determine if at least a portion of an object resides in the turning alert zone and, if at least a portion of an object resides in the turning alert zone, control an operation of the vehicle (for example, a braking operation).

A vehicle control system for providing information to support an overtaking maneuver by a first vehicle, the vehicle control system includes: a processing circuitry adapted to be operatively connected to a traffic view camera and configured to: receive image data of at least one other vehicle in traffic by the traffic view camera; determine, based on the image data of the at least one other vehicle in traffic, overtaking support data indicative of at least one gap in the traffic suitable for an overtaking maneuver; and provide the overtaking support data to the first vehicle for supporting an overtaking maneuver by the first vehicle.

A trajectory generation device is configured to generate a future trajectory along which a vehicle travels in a future. The trajectory generation device includes an action plan unit, a trajectory candidate unit, a trajectory evaluation unit, and a trajectory fixing unit. The action plan unit is configured to plan a future action of the vehicle. The trajectory candidate generation unit is configured to generate a trajectory candidate of the future trajectory in accordance with the planned future action. The trajectory evaluation unit is configured to evaluate whether a traveling along the trajectory candidate is permitted. The trajectory fixing unit is configured to fix the trajectory candidate as the future trajectory when it is determined that the traveling along the trajectory candidate is permitted. The action plan unit is configured to plan the future action again when it is determined that the traveling along the trajectory candidate is not permitted.

An information processing apparatus comprises a controller comprising at least one processor configured to, when a vehicle is in a service area of a predetermined wireless access point, provide a service corresponding to an identifier of the wireless access point for a driver of the vehicle.

A method of classifying a driving maneuver performed by another vehicle in an environment of an ego-vehicle. In the method: a time series of a metrologically determined position of the other vehicle relative to the ego-vehicle that extends to a time step t is provided; spatial profiles of lanes in which the other vehicle may be located are provided; for a plurality of driving maneuvers from a predetermined catalog of possible driving maneuvers, conditional probabilities for the other vehicle to perform this driving maneuver at the time t are respectively determined with a predetermined model by using the time series of the position and the profiles of the lanes; by using these conditional probabilities, a most likely position and/or a probability distribution of positions of the other vehicle at the time step t is determined.

A system in a vehicle includes one or more sensors to provide data, the one or more sensors including one or more cameras. The system also includes processing circuitry to obtain sensor information based on the data. The sensor information includes a position of one or more features around the vehicle, the one or more features being stationary objects. The processing circuitry additionally obtains information from messages, fuses the sensor information and the information from the messages, and generates and broadcasts an adaptive safety message based on fusion that does not include a satellite-based position of the vehicle.

A system and method for controlling a merge vehicle travelling along a highway having a merge lane and a main lane. The method includes receiving merge data about the merge vehicle and a surrounding environment of the merge vehicle. The method includes detecting an intent to perform a merge maneuver by the merge vehicle from the merge lane to the main lane based on the merge data. Further, the method includes generating a graph having a plurality of nodes connected by edges. The plurality of nodes includes a start node set to a current position of the merge vehicle and a goal node located in the main lane after the merge lane has ended. The method includes calculating a three-dimensional (3D) trajectory based on the graph by optimizing edge costs from the start node to the goal node, and controlling the merge vehicle based on the 3D trajectory.

Embodiments of this application provides example methods, media, and apparatuses for predicting moving trajectory of a target object. One example method includes obtaining a candidate moving trajectory, where the candidate moving trajectory is a motion trajectory that is of the target object in future period and that is obtained by using a prediction method, and the target object is in a sensing range of an ego vehicle. Environmental information is obtained within the sensing range. A constraint barrier is generated based on the environmental information, where the constraint barrier is used to indicate an area through which the target object is constrained to pass. The candidate moving trajectory is processed based on the constraint barrier.

Enhanced ridehail systems and methods are disclosed herein. A method can include determining a pattern of a patterned object associated with a ridehail stand from images obtained by a vehicle camera, determining presence of a user at the ridehail stand using the images when at least a portion of the patterned object is being obscured by the user or when the user is detected using a sensor of the vehicle, and causing the vehicle to stop at the ridehail stand when the presence of the user is determined.
