    Abstract: A system comprises a fleet of autonomous vehicles and a scheduling server. The scheduling server accepts input comprising at least one preferred performance criteria to complete a mission trip. The scheduling server determines a routing plan to complete the mission trip based on the input. The routing plan is determined to optimize the at least one preferred performance criteria. The scheduling server identifies at least one autonomous vehicle that can perform the mission trip according to the determined routing plan. The scheduling server assigns the at least one autonomous vehicle to perform the mission trip.

    Abstract: Disclosed are devices, systems and methods for controlling exposure time of an image sensor mounted on a vehicle. One exemplary method includes configuring map data to include location information associated with exposure time information for the image sensor; obtaining an initial exposure time for the image sensor based on the map data; and adjusting the initial exposure time to obtain a target exposure time for the image sensor based on real time parameters.

    Abstract: Disclosed are devices and systems for an optimized sensor layout for an autonomous or semi-autonomous vehicle. In one aspect, the system includes a vehicle capable of semi-autonomous or autonomous operation. A plurality of forward-facing cameras is coupled to the vehicle and configured to have a field of view in front of the vehicle. At least three forward-facing cameras of the plurality of forward-facing cameras have different focal lengths. A right-side camera is coupled to the right side of the vehicle, the right-side camera configured to have a field of view to the right of the vehicle. A left-side camera is coupled to the left side of the vehicle, the left-side camera is configured to have a field of view to the left of the vehicle.

    Abstract: Disclosed are devices, systems, and methods for a LiDAR mirror assembly mounted on a vehicle, such as an autonomous or semi-autonomous vehicle. For example, a LiDAR mirror assembly may include a base plate mounted on a hood of a vehicle, where the base plate is coupled to one end of a support arm. The opposite end of the support arm is attached to a housing. The housing includes a top housing enclosure coupled to a bottom housing platform, where a sensor and a mirror is coupled to the housing, and where the sensor is at least partially exposed through an opening in the top housing enclosure. The opening for the sensor is situated near an end of the housing furthest away from the base plate.
