Abstract: A tire tread wear system may include one or more vehicle sensors and a processor. The processor may include a control module, a geometrical model, a machine learning model, and a switch. The geometrical model may be configured to collect data from the vehicle sensors to determine a dynamic rolling radius of a tire. The geometrical model may be configured to output a tread wear estimation based on the dynamic rolling radius of the tire. The machine learning model may be configured to collect data from the vehicle sensors. The machine learning model may be configured to output a tread wear estimation based on a correlation of the tread wear estimation output from the geometrical model and one or more data instances with a tire tread state. The switch may be configured to activate the geometrical model, the machine learning model, or a combination thereof.

Abstract: Running boards for vehicles are disclosed that each include a rail with one or more steps. The step(s) are releasably connectable to (supported by) the rail (e.g., via a plurality of removable mechanical fasteners) to allow for removal of the step(s) when additional ground clearance is necessary and/or desirable, such as, for example, during off-road use of the vehicle. The rail of each running board is connectable to an underside of the vehicle (e.g., via brackets) such that the rails are positioned to absorb impact from external objects, such as, for example, rocks, boulders, stumps, etc., traversed during travel across uneven ground, and thereby protect the vehicle. In certain embodiments, the rails may include internal supports (e.g., stiffening ribs) to increase the strength and/or the rigidity of the rail, and, thus, increase the protection to the vehicle provided by the running boards.

Abstract: A method for responding to a public safety alert includes receiving an indication of the public safety alert, wherein the public safety alert comprising a description of a wanted road user; identifying, using sensors of an autonomous vehicle (AV) and in response to the public safety alert, road users; and, in response to determining that an identified road user matches the wanted road user, notifying an authority of the match. A method for road incident reporting by an AV includes identifying road users based on sensor data of the AV; associating respective hypotheses with each of the road users; and, in response to determining that a threshold number of the road users are not proceeding according to at least one of the respective hypotheses, sending a notification indicating a potential traffic issue at a zone of the road users.

Abstract: A vehicle front-end assembly includes a vehicle frame and a skid plate. The vehicle frame has a first front side member and a second front side member. Each of the first and second front side members has a corresponding front-end portion with a downward facing surface. The skid plate has a main section, a first attachment flange extending from a first lateral side of the main section and a second attachment flange extending from a second lateral side of the main section. The first attachment flange is attached to the downward facing surface of the first front side member. The second attachment flange is attached to the downward facing surface of the second front side member such that the main section covers a forward area of an underside of the vehicle.

Abstract: An apparatus for remote support of autonomous operation of a vehicle includes a processor that is configured to perform a method including receiving a request for a trip through a transportation network, wherein the trip includes a first travel portion from a first location to a second location, and a second travel portion from the second location to a third location. Each of the first travel portion and the second travel portion is associated with a different service such that a first payload of the first travel portion is different from a second payload of the second travel portion. The method also includes determining, based on the request, a route for the trip from the first location to the second location, and from the second location to the third location, and performing a validation process that confirms a presence of cargo in the first payload and/or the second payload.
