Abstract: Described are devices, systems and methods for real-time remote control of vehicles with high redundancy. In some embodiments, two copies of at least one control command are received using two different wireless communication protocols, and are compared. The at least one control command is executed when the two copies are in agreement, but is rejected when the two copies differ. In other embodiments, additional wireless communication protocols may exist to provide a redundant mode of communication when one of the two different wireless communication protocols are unavailable. In yet other embodiments, redundant GPS units may be used to determine availability of any of the communication protocols, and relevant control commands may be downloaded in advance to circumvent a lack of coverage.

Abstract: Disclosed are devices, systems and methods for remote safe driving. One exemplary method includes detecting an emergency situation, and in response to the detecting the emergency situation, switching operation of the vehicle to a low-power operation mode that comprises shutting down a subset of vehicular components, and periodically transmitting a location of the vehicle to a remote monitoring center. Another exemplary method includes selecting at least one of a set of vehicular driving actions, and transmitting, over a secure connection, the at least one of the set of vehicular driving actions to the vehicle, wherein the set of vehicular driving actions is generated based on a classification of driver behavior.

Abstract: Disclosed are distributed computing systems and methods for controlling multiple autonomous control modules and subsystems in an autonomous vehicle. In some aspects of the disclosed technology, a computing architecture for an autonomous vehicle includes distributing the complexity of autonomous vehicle operation, thereby avoiding the use of a single high-performance computing system and enabling off-the-shelf components to be use more readily and reducing system failure rates.

Abstract: Various embodiments for implementing a system and method for managing and querying semi-structured, heterogeneously-typed sensor data in a distributed environment are disclosed. Example embodiments include: enabling data communications between a plurality of compute nodes and a plurality of physical data storage devices via an application programming interface (API) layer, a cache management layer, a server layer, and a storage layer; and receiving a data request from at least one of the plurality of compute nodes at the API layer, the data request including an identification of a topic of a dataset, the topic including a metadata file, a data file, and an index file, the index file including at least one pointer into the data file.
