    Abstract: Systems and method are provided for requesting remote control of an autonomous vehicle by a remote transportation system. In one embodiment, a method includes: receiving, by a processor of the autonomous vehicle, experience data associated with the autonomous vehicle, wherein the experience data includes a location of the autonomous vehicle, a time of day, a pose of the autonomous vehicle, detected freespace in an environment of the autonomous vehicle, detected congestion in the environment, a planned maneuver type, and an associated maneuver graph; determining, by the processor, one or more features of a planned maneuver based on the experience data; determining, by the processor, a risk value associated with the planned mission by processing the one or more features with a machine learning model; and selectively generating, by the processor, request data to the remote transportation system based on the risk value, wherein the request data includes the risk value.

    Abstract: A system for initiating and executing an automated lane change maneuver in a vehicle may include a steering wheel interface having a display; and a monitor to detect a viewing direction of the user. The interface may detect a first predetermined gesture by the user; in response to the first predetermined gesture, transmit a first signal to the vehicle instructing the vehicle to prepare for the automated lane change maneuver; display a status of the automated lane change maneuver; display a prompt for the user to visually confirm safety of the automated lane change maneuver. The monitor may continuously detect the viewing direction of the user; and in response to the viewing direction of the user changing, transmit a second signal to the vehicle instructing the vehicle to execute the automated lane change maneuver.

    Abstract: Embodiments include methods, systems and computer readable storage medium for adjusting ride and/or performance dynamics of a passenger transport. The method receiving, by a processor, a transportation request. The method further includes assigning, by the processor, a passenger transport to fulfill the transportation request. The method further includes receiving, by the processor, at least one passenger profile, wherein the at least one passenger profile includes preferred ride and performance dynamics for a passenger. The method further includes adjusting, by the processor, one or more ride and performance dynamics for the passenger transport in response to the received at least one passenger profile. The method further includes transporting, by the passenger transport, one or more passengers associated with the transportation request to a destination.

    Abstract: A method for providing a situational awareness interface for an occupant of an automated vehicle is provided. The method includes: generating a vehicle route graphic that displays a street level map of an area that includes a current location of the vehicle and an intended destination of the vehicle along with a visual depiction of a planned route and one or more alternate routes for the vehicle; determining a probability of requiring assistance or interaction and an estimated time of arrival for each of the planned route and the one or more alternate routes; providing a visual indication of the probability of requiring assistance or interaction and the estimated time of arrival for each of the planned route and the one or more alternate routes on the vehicle route graphic; and signaling a display device to display the vehicle route graphic.

    Abstract: A processor-implemented path planning method in a vehicle is disclosed. The method includes retrieving road surface information along a planned path for the vehicle; constructing, by the processor, a model of the road surface along the planned path; identifying, by the processor, a road irregularity in the road surface for the planned path; classifying, by the processor, the road irregularity; projecting the location of vehicle tire patches on the model of the road surface; predicting, by the processor, vehicle sprung-mass dynamics as a function of time for the vehicle along the planned path; calculating a plurality of alternative path trajectories within the constraints of the road boundaries for avoiding the road irregularity; choosing an alternative path trajectory out of the plurality of alternative path trajectories that reduces the sprung-mass dynamics for the vehicle to provide a more comfortable ride; and updating the planned path with the chosen alternative path trajectory.

    Abstract: Embodiments include methods, systems and computer readable storage medium for augmented rider identification and dynamic rerouting. The method includes presenting, by a processor, profile data associated with one or more potential passengers while a vehicle is en route to a passenger pickup location or at the passenger pickup location. The method further includes presenting, by the processor, image data obtained at the passenger pickup location. The method further includes comparing, by an occupant, the profile data and the obtained image data to confirm that the one or more potential passengers are at the passenger pickup location. The method further includes receiving, from the occupant, an entry input indicating that entry to the vehicle should or should not be allowed based on the comparison. The method further includes allowing or disallowing, by the processor, entry to the vehicle based on the received entry input.
