    摘要: A lane tracking system for tracking the position of a vehicle within a lane includes a camera configured to provide a video feed representative of a field of view and a video processor configured to receive the video feed from the camera and to generate latent video-based position data indicative of the position of the vehicle within the lane. The system further includes a vehicle motion sensor configured to generate vehicle motion data indicative of the motion of the vehicle, and a lane tracking processor. The lane tracking processor is configured to receive the video-based position data, updated at a first frequency; receive the sensed vehicle motion data, updated at a second frequency; estimate the position of the vehicle within the lane from the sensed vehicle motion data; and fuse the video-based position data with the estimate of the vehicle position within the lane using a Kalman filter.

    摘要: Method, system and non-transitory computer-readable medium for fail-safe performance of a lane centering system. An electrical power steering (EPS) system of a vehicle is monitored for a failure and operation of the lane centering system is switched to a differential braking controller to output differential braking commands to a differential breaking system upon determining that a failure of the EPS system has occurred, where the output braking commands direct the differential braking system to apply force a brake for a wheel of vehicle, such by the applied braking force the vehicle follows a desired path determined for a lane centering operation.

    摘要: A method includes parallel parking a vehicle between a first object and a second object in response to an available parking distance therebetween. The vehicle includes front steerable wheels and rear steerable wheels. A distance between the first object and the second object is remotely sensed determining whether to apply a one or two cycle parking strategy. An autonomous one cycle parking strategy includes pivoting the front and rear steerable wheels in respective directions for steering the vehicle in a first reverse arcuate path of travel and then cooperatively pivoting the steerable wheels in a counter direction for steering the vehicle in a second reverse arcuate path of travel to a final park position. The autonomous two cycle parking strategy includes performing the one cycle parking maneuver and then changing a transmission gear to a drive gear and pivoting the front and rear steerable wheels in the first direction for moving the vehicle forward to a final park position.

    摘要: A vehicle control method includes iteratively modifying a level of braking of the vehicle until it is determined that the vehicle has substantially lost traction with respect to the road surface, then determining the coefficient of friction between the road surface and the tire based on the level of braking at the time the vehicle substantially lost fraction. In one embodiment, previous ABS or other vehicle control events are used as a basis for estimating an initial level of braking to be applied during the friction measurement procedure. Such a deterministic maneuver can also function as a collision warning to the driver of the vehicle.

    摘要: A collision avoidance system for assisting a driver in avoiding a collision between a host vehicle and obstacle. A processor recursively calculates a time-to-collision with the obstacle and an optimal collision avoidance path for avoiding the collision. The optimum collision avoidance path is recursively generated based on a position and speed of the host vehicle relative to the obstacle and an updated calculated time-to-collision. A sensing device determines whether the driver of the vehicle has initiated a steering maneuver to avoid the obstacle. A steering assist mechanism maintains the host vehicle along the optimum collision avoidance path. The steering assist mechanism applies a steering assist torque for producing steering adjustments to assist in guiding the host vehicle along the optimum collision avoidance path to the target lane. The steering assist torque generated by the steering assist mechanism is recursively adjusted based on a recent updated optimum collision avoidance path.

    摘要: A system and method for determining vehicle CG height and mass in real-time. The method includes selecting a set of vehicle parameters to be considered that includes the vehicle mass and the center of gravity height of the vehicle. Frequency responses are generated using the dynamic model and a plurality of different values for the selected vehicle parameters. During vehicle operation, frequency responses are calculated from a measured vehicle lateral acceleration to a roll angle and/or a roll rate of the vehicle. The generated frequency responses and the calculated frequency responses are compared to determine which of the generated frequency responses more closely matches the calculated frequency responses. The generated frequency responses that most closely match the calculated frequency responses are used to determine the center of gravity height and the vehicle mass from the values for the vehicle parameters.

    摘要: A system and method for estimating vehicle side-slip velocity that includes measuring the lateral acceleration of the vehicle, measuring the yaw rate of the vehicle, measuring the longitudinal speed of the vehicle and measuring the steering angle of the vehicle. The measured longitudinal speed is corrected to provide a true longitudinal speed using a filter factor based on the vehicle-dependent parameters and a steering angle. A constant is defined based on the measured longitudinal speed and a function is defined based on the combination of the vehicle-dependent parameters and the lateral acceleration. Side-slip acceleration is calculated using the measured lateral acceleration, the true longitudinal speed, the yaw rate, the constant and the function.
