    摘要: A system (1) for estimating an articulation angle (α) between a first (110) and a second (120) connected vehicle section of an articulated vehicle combination (100), the system comprising:
    - a primary image obtaining device (2) configured to be mounted on a first position of one of the vehicle sections and to obtain images of the other vehicle section during use;
    - a secondary image obtaining device (3) configured to be mounted on a second position of one of the vehicle sections and to obtain images of the other vehicle section during use, the second position being different from the first position, and/or a mounting orientation at the second position of the second image obtaining device being different from a mounting orientation at the first position of the primary image obtaining device; and
    wherein the system is configured to:
    - estimate the articulation angle by use of at least one obtained image from the primary image obtaining device;
    - determine if an unreliability condition has been fulfilled which indicates that the articulation angle cannot be reliably estimated from the at least one obtained image from the primary image obtaining device; and
    when the unreliability condition has been fulfilled, the system is further configured to:
    - estimate the articulation angle by use of at least one obtained image from the secondary image obtaining device.

    摘要: The invention relates to a control system (100) for a trailer (1) or dolly (2), wherein the trailer (1) or dolly (2) comprises a perception sensor (3) which is directed in a first travelling direction (T1) of the trailer (1) or dolly (2) and a coupling member (4) for coupling with a vehicle (5) further ahead in the first travelling direction (T1), wherein the control system is configured to provide and/or use data from the sensor (3) for a first control mode when the trailer (1) or dolly (2) is not coupled to the vehicle (5) via the coupling member (4) and to provide and/or use data from the sensor (3) for a second control mode different from the first control mode when the trailer (1) or dolly (2) is coupled to the vehicle (5) via the coupling member (4).

    摘要: The invention relates to a method of controlling inter-vehicle gap(s) (24a-c) in a platoon (10) comprising a lead vehicle (12) and one or more following vehicles (14a-c). The method comprises the steps of: obtaining an indicator (27) of a potential collision threat (26) identified by an autonomous emergency braking system (16) of the lead vehicle, wherein the autonomous emergency braking system of the lead vehicle comprises predefined control phases (28a-c), and wherein the indicator at least partly determines a current control phase of the autonomous emergency braking system; and sending the obtained indicator to the one or more following vehicles.

    摘要: The invention relates to a method for determining an articulation angle (α) of a vehicle combination (100, 100') comprising a first vehicle section (110, 110'), such as a truck, and a second vehicle section (120, 120'), such as a trailer or dolly unit, which are connected via a first articulation joint (A1), wherein the first vehicle section (110, 110') comprises an image obtaining device (10) which is configured to obtain images of the second vehicle section (120, 120') during use, the method comprising:
    - obtaining a first image (P1) of the second vehicle section (120, 120') by the image obtaining device (10);
    - mirroring the first image (P1), thereby obtaining a second mirrored image (P1M);
    - determining the articulation angle (α) between the first and second vehicle sections based on a required level of relative rotation (Φ') of the first image (P1) and the second mirrored image (P1M) until the first image (P1) and the second mirrored image (P1M) match each other. The inventio also relates to a system, a vehicle, a computer program, and to a computer readable medium.

    摘要: The invention relates to a system (1) and method for calibrating a portable vehicle sensor (2) which is releasably mountable to a vehicle (100) at least at a first (P1) and a second (P2) position on the vehicle (100), wherein the first and second positions (P1, P2) are offset from each other, the system comprising:
    - inputting means (11) configured to receive position information (x1, y1, z1) relating to the second position (P2) when or after the portable vehicle sensor (2) has been moved from the first position (P1) to the second position (P2);
    - calibration means (12) configured to calibrate the position of the portable vehicle sensor (2) with respect to the second position (P2) by use of the received position information.
