Abstract: A method disclosed comprises receiving sensor data indicating probable damage to the autonomous vehicle from a sensor aboard the autonomous vehicle. The method analyzing the sensor data using a decision engine to determine a confidence factor associated with the probable damage to the autonomous vehicle, and, based on the confidence factor meeting a threshold value, determining an occurrence of a condition causing damage. The method includes sending a command to a vehicle actuation manager to move the autonomous vehicle to a safe location in response to the condition and sending an alert. Systems implementing similar aspects are also disclosed.

Abstract: An attention attracting system includes HMI devices that are mounted on a subject vehicle; and an attention attracting device that transmits, to a driver, a possibility of contact between the subject vehicle and an object through the HMI devices. The attention attracting device includes a processor that identifies a risk position at which the contact occurs and a risk level of the contact, estimates a degree of fatigue of the driver, and transmits the risk position and the risk level to the driver. The processor selects an HMI device to be used in accordance with the degree of fatigue of the driver, provides a tactile stimulus or an auditory stimulus to the driver through a tactile HMI device or an auditory HMI device at a remarkableness level corresponding to height of the risk level, and transmits visual information to the driver through a visual HMI device.

Abstract: In various examples, estimated field of view or gaze information of a user may be projected external to a vehicle and compared to vehicle perception information corresponding to an environment outside of the vehicle. As a result, interior monitoring of a driver or occupant of the vehicle may be used to determine whether the driver or occupant has processed or seen certain object types, environmental conditions, or other information exterior to the vehicle. For a more holistic understanding of the state of the user, attentiveness and/or cognitive load of the user may be monitored to determine whether one or more actions should be taken. As a result, notifications, AEB system activations, and/or other actions may be determined based on a more complete state of the user as determined based on cognitive load, attentiveness, and/or a comparison between external perception of the vehicle and estimated perception of the user.

Abstract: A method of maintaining a favorable emotional state of a rider of a vehicle. The method includes: receiving emotional state indicative wearable sensor data of the rider in the vehicle; classifying, at a rider emotional state determining neural network, the emotional state indicative wearable sensor data and generating output data indicative of a classification of the rider emotional state as one of a favorable emotional state of the rider or an unfavorable emotional state of the rider; converting the output data from the rider emotional state determining neural network into a vehicle operational state datum; and adjusting a vehicle operating parameter in response to the vehicle operational state datum.

Abstract: A transportation system includes: a neural network to determine current inferred hormonal state data of an occupant of the vehicle based in part on received sensor data relating to the occupant; and an artificial intelligence-based system trained on a set of outcomes related to occupant in-vehicle experience. The artificial intelligence-based system is configured to: retrieve sensor data of the occupant; identify a difference between the current inferred hormonal state data and a desired hormonal state; determine a variation including one of configuring the vehicle for aggressive driving performance or configuring the vehicle for non-aggressive driving performance to promote the desired hormonal state of the occupant responsive to the current inferred hormonal state; and induce the variation in one or more occupant experience parameters to achieve at least one desired outcome.
