摘要： This document describes techniques and systems for identifying and selecting a parking spot using radar-centric occupancy grid (RCOG) maps. An example system includes a processor that can identify available parking spots near a host vehicle using sensor data, including a radar occupancy grid (ROG) map. Parking-spot characteristics of each available parking spot are also determined using the sensor data. The processor can then determine a selected parking spot based on the parking-spot characteristics. The processor or another processor can then control operation of the host vehicle to park in the selected parking spot using an assisted-driving or autonomous-driving system and based on the parking-spot characteristics. In this way, the described system can identify, select, and navigate to a parking spot using a RCOG map without having to rely on infrastructure sensors or pass by open spots.

摘要： The disclosure relates to a computer-implemented method of expanding swarm data for controlling a motor vehicle by way of a driver assist system, wherein the swarm data for a route section include corresponding indicator swarm data regarding a course of at least two roadway or lane indicators on the route section, and wherein the swarm data are provided by registered roadway or lane indicator data. The method includes calculating, from the indicator swarm data, a minimum indicator swarm distance regarding the at least two roadway or lane indicators at one or more route section positions of the route section, and expanding the indicator swarm data regarding at least one of the at least two roadway or lane indicators with the indicator swarm distance at the one or more route section positions.

摘要： A steerable vehicle is configured to assist drivers who are traversing a snow-covered roadway. The vehicle uses perimeter sensors including a far-infrared camera to examine the roadway in front of the vehicle. The vehicle is equipped with a driver assistance system configured to operate the vehicle into a specified path or operate the vehicle by remaining in the specified path. The vehicle uses a controller to support a lane-keeping mode configured to be active while the roadway is snow-covered. The lane-keeping mode inspects images captured by the far-infrared cameras for tire tracks of previous vehicles and roadway edge features both which create compact snow and may assist in determining a skirting path or an adverse navigation area. The skirting path may be presented to the driver on a display or can be autonomously followed.

摘要： For one embodiment of the present disclosure, systems and methods for dynamically responding to detected changes in a semantic map of an autonomous vehicle (AV) are described. A computer implemented method includes obtaining sensor signals from a sensor system of the AV to monitor driving operations, processing the sensor signals for sensor observations of the sensor system, determining whether a map change exists between the sensor observations and a prerecorded semantic map, determining whether the map change is located in a planned route of the AV when the map change exists, and generating a first scenario with a first priority level to to stop the AV at a safe location based on a location of the map change.

摘要： A method for determining the ability of a vehicle user to react in the automated driving mode of a vehicle uses detected image data of a driver monitoring camera. Using digital map data present in the vehicle and/or sensor data detected by the vehicle, it is determined whether at least one specified relevant object in a momentary vehicle environment is located in the field of vision of the vehicle user. For at least one detected specified relevant object in the momentary vehicle environment, detected image data of the driver monitoring camera is used to determine a duration and/or frequency the vehicle user directs their gaze to the detected relevant object. When a determined duration falls short of a specified minimum duration and/or when a determined gaze change frequency falls short of a minimum frequency, the ability of the vehicle user to react is evaluated as not given.

摘要： ADAS designed to assist a driver of a motor-vehicle in low meteorological visibility conditions, in particular with fog, comprising a sensory system comprising a front vision system arranged on the motor-vehicle to monitor an environment in front of the motor-vehicle and comprising one or different first front cameras designed to operate in the electromagnetic spectrum visible to the human eye, and one or different second front cameras designed to operate in the electromagnetic spectrum invisible to the human eye; and electronic processing resources communicatively coupled to the sensory system to receive and process outputs of one or more of the automotive front cameras to determine a meteorological visibility in front of the motor-vehicle and assist the driver of the motor-vehicle based on the meteorological visibility in front of the motor-vehicle. Assisting the driver of the motor-vehicle comprises differentially controlling operation(s) of one or different automotive systems comprising an external lighting system, a user interface, and a cruise control system based on the meteorological visibility in front of the motor-vehicle. Assisting the driver of the motor-vehicle further comprises visually assisting the driver of the motor-vehicle via the user interface by displaying on at least one automotive display thereof either a video streaming of an automotive front camera or a virtual depiction of an environment in front of or surrounding the motor-vehicle computed based on information from the sensory system.
