    Abstract: An autonomous off-road vehicle (AOV) autonomously performs a pile driving operation by driving a pile into the ground at a location identified by a pile plan map. The AOV detects one or more attributes of the pile using one or more sensors during or after the pile driving operation. The AOV determines whether the one or more attributes of the pile exceed respective tolerance thresholds. The AOV performs a quality control action in response to determining that the one or more attributes of the pile exceed the respective tolerance thresholds. The one or more attributes include one or more of a location and an orientation of the pile, and the quality control action is performed in response to determining that the location or the orientation of the pile exceeds the respective tolerance threshold.

    Abstract: An autonomous off-road vehicle (AOV) accesses a pile plan map indicating a plurality of locations within a geographic area at which piles are to be installed. The AOV generates an obstacle map indicating locations of obstacles within the geographic area. The AOV autonomously navigates to a first location of the plurality of locations using the pile plan map. In response to driving a pile into the ground at the first location, the AOV modifies the obstacle map to include a representation of the pile at the first location. The AOV autonomously navigates to a second location of the plurality of locations using the pile plan map. In response to driving a pile into ground at the second location, the AOV modifies the obstacle map that includes the representation of the pile at the first location to further include a representation of the pile at the second location.

    Abstract: In some implementations, the EMV uses a calibration to inform autonomous control over the EMV. To calibrate an EMV, the system first selects a calibration action comprising a control signal for actuating a control surface of the EMV. Then, using a calibration model comprising a machine learning model trained based on one or more previous calibration actions taken by the EMV, the system predicts a response of the control surface to the control signal of the calibration action. After the EMV executes the control signal to perform the calibration action, the EMV system monitors the actual response of the control signal and uses that to update the calibration model based on a comparison between the predicted and monitored states of the control surface.
