Abstract: Systems and methods for deploying emergency roadside signaling devices are disclosed. In one aspect, a control system for an object placing device of an autonomous vehicle includes a processor, and a computer-readable memory in communication with the processor and having stored thereon computer-executable instructions to cause the processor to: receive a signal comprising instructions to activate the object placing device; and provide instructions to the object placing device to place a plurality of signaling devices in accordance with predetermined criteria.

Abstract: Techniques are described for compensating for movements of sensors. A method includes receiving two sets of sensor data from two sets of sensors, where a first set of sensors are located on a roof of a cab of a semi-trailer truck and a second set of sensor data are located on a hood of the semi-trailer truck. The method also receives from a height sensor a measured value indicative of a height of the rear of a rear portion of the cab of the semi-trailer truck relative to a chassis of the semi-trailer truck, determines two correction values, one for each of the two sets of sensor data, and compensates for the movement of the two sets of sensors by generating two sets of compensated sensor data. The two sets of compensated sensor data are generated by adjusting the two sets of sensor data based on the two correction values.

Abstract: FIG. 1 shows a front isometric view of an integrated multi-purpose perception housing.
FIG. 2 is a front isometric view thereof, showing top panels removed for ease of illustration.
FIG. 3 is an exploded front view of FIG. 1.
FIG. 4 is a right-side view of FIG. 1.
FIG. 5 is a front view of FIG. 1.
FIG. 6 is a bottom view of FIG. 1.
FIG. 7 is a rear view of FIG. 1;
FIG. 8 is an enlarged isometric view of a right side portion and a left side portion of the integrated multi-purpose perception housing; the center portion of the integrated multi-purpose perception housing shown in FIG. 2 has been removed for ease of illustration; and,
FIG. 9 is an enlarged view of the integrated multi-purpose perception housing taken from indication circle 9 of FIG. 5.
The broken lines in the drawings illustrate portions of the integrated multi-purpose perception housing and form no part of the claimed design. The dot-dot-dash broken lines in the drawings illustrate boundaries of an enlargement that form no part of the claimed design.

Abstract: An integrated housing assembly can be mounted on a roof of a vehicle, such as a semi-trailer truck. The integrated housing assembly includes a main enclosure that includes four sides, a top panel, and a bottom panel. One of the four sides is a front panel that is inclined towards the ground. The main enclosure includes one or more cavities. A front panel of the integrated housing assembly includes one or more openings to allow cameras or sensors to be placed within the one or more cavities and behind the one or more opening. The cameras or sensors cameras can be clamped at a downward angle within multiple lock apparatus. The angled front panel and the inclined cameras or sensors within the lock apparatus allow the cameras or sensors to obtain images or sensor data from one or more regions of interest at some distance from the front of the vehicle.

Abstract: Systems and methods for deploying emergency roadside signaling devices are disclosed. In one aspect, system for an autonomous vehicle includes one or more signaling devices configured to visually notify other vehicles when placed on or near a roadway, and an object placing device configured to place the one or more signaling devices. The system further includes a processor and a computer-readable memory in communication with the processor and having stored thereon computer-executable instructions to cause the processor to: determine that the autonomous vehicle has experienced a malfunction, and provide instructions to the object placing device to place the one or more signaling devices on or near the roadway.
