Abstract: Embodiments are disclosed for improving safety with parking brake actuation. In particular, embodiments inhibit or allow parking brake commands based on an operation state of a vehicle. Further, embodiments act on parking brake commands based on a health or condition of the parking brakes themselves. An example method for autonomous operation of a vehicle includes receiving a command to apply a parking brake of the vehicle; determining a vehicle operation state based on comparing a speed of the vehicle to a range of pre-determined values; configuring an instruction for engagement of the parking brake according to the vehicle operation state; determining a brake health of the parking brake; and transmitting the instruction to the parking brake to cause the parking brake to be engaged based on the brake health satisfying one or more thresholds.

Abstract: A method includes receiving a series of road images from a side-view camera sensor of the autonomous driving vehicle. For each object from objects captured in the series of road images, a series of bounding boxes in the series of road images is generated, and a direction of travel or stationarity of the object is determined. The methods and apparatus also include determining a speed of each object for which the direction of travel has been determined and determining, based on the directions of travel, speeds, or stationarity of the objects, whether the autonomous driving vehicle can safely move in a predetermined direction. Furthermore, one or more control signals is sent to the autonomous driving vehicle to cause the autonomous driving vehicle to move or to remain stationary based on determining whether the autonomous driving vehicle can safely move in the predetermined direction.

Abstract: A vehicle data processing system receives a set of data logged, during operation of each of a fleet of vehicles, by a data logger communicatively coupled to a controller area network (CAN) bus in each of the vehicles. The set of logged data can include a plurality of measurements generated by a sensor configured to transmit the measurements across the CAN bus, and can be received from a storage device to which the set of logged data was uploaded after the vehicle completed one or more trips. The system processes the logged data using a set of alerting rules. When a criterion in the set of alerting rules is satisfied by the set of logged data, the system outputs an alert.
