    Abstract: A self-driving vehicle (SDV) can operate by analyzing sensor data to autonomously control acceleration, braking, and steering systems of the SDV along a current route. The SDV includes a number of sensors generating the sensor data and a control system to detect conditions relating to the operation of the SDV, such as vehicle speed and local weather, select a set of sensors based on the detected conditions, and prioritize the sensor data generated from the selected set of sensors to control aspects relating to the operation of the SDV.

    Abstract: An integrated clutch steering system for an automated vehicle (AV) can include an offset gear having a first gear endpoint and a second gear endpoint. The offset gear can be mounted to a steering column of the AV at the first gear endpoint. The integrated clutch steering system can further include an AV steering motor coupled to a steering clutch, which can be coupled to the offset gear at the second gear endpoint. The AV steering motor can be operated by an AV control system to apply torque to the steering column via the steering clutch and the offset gear to control steering of the AV. When a predetermined amount of torque is exceeded on the steering column, the steering clutch can slip to enable manual steering of the AV.

    Abstract translation: 用于自动车辆（AV）的集成离合器转向系统可以包括具有第一档位端点和第二档位端点的偏移齿轮。 偏移齿轮可以在第一档位端安装到AV的转向柱上。 集成离合器转向系统还可以包括耦合到转向离合器的AV转向马达，该转向马达可以在第二档位端耦合到偏置齿轮。 AV转向电机可以由AV控制系统操作，以通过转向离合器和偏移齿轮向转向柱施加扭矩，以控制AV的转向。 当在转向柱上超过预定量的转矩时，转向离合器可以滑动以便能够手动操纵AV。

    Abstract: An image processing system for a vehicle can include a set of cameras generating image data of a surrounding environment of the vehicle, and a masking layer comprising a plurality of pixels. The system can detect, in first image data generated by the set of cameras, one or more light sources in a field of view of a respective camera of the set of cameras. The system can then activate a number of pixels of the masking layer to block each of the one or more light sources for the respective camera, preemptively bolstering a quality of second image data generated by the set of cameras while the masking layer blocks each of the one or more light sources.

    Abstract: An intelligent lens masking system for a camera array of an autonomous vehicle (AV) can include an array interface to receive real-time data from the camera array as the AV travels along a given route, where each camera of the camera array may include a masking layer on its lens. The intelligent lens masking system can dynamically identify, in the real-time data, a number of light sources in the field of view for each respective camera in the camera array. Once the light source(s) for the respective camera is detected, the intelligent lens masking system can dynamically block the lights source(s) for the respective camera by activating a number of pixels of the masking layer.
