Abstract:
Techniques for determining a condition of a component of a vehicle and/or adjusting a configuration of a vehicle based on a condition of a component of the vehicle are discussed herein. The vehicle can receive vehicle component data and use the vehicle component data to determine a condition of one or more vehicle components. The vehicle can use a sensor, such as an image sensor, to capture or otherwise determine the vehicle component data. The condition of the component(s) of the vehicle may be determined using a machine learned model trained to determine condition of the component from image data. The vehicle can determine vehicle configuration data based on the condition. The vehicle configuration data may include an instruction to navigate to a maintenance facility, to remove the vehicle from service, constraining operation of the vehicle, etc.
