Abstract:
An automotive autonomous driving system comprising automotive on-board systems comprising a propulsion system, a braking system, a steering system, and a sensory system, an automotive user interface, and an automotive electronic control unit connected to, via an automotive on-board communications network, and configured to cooperate with, the automotive on-board systems and the automotive user interface to provide an automotive autonomous driving system. The automotive electronic control unit is further configured to store and populate a database of recurrent low speed manoeuvres and cause recurrent low speed manoeuvres stored in the database of recurrent low speed manoeuvres to be repeated in autonomous driving mode.
Abstract:
An automotive accelerator device includes an accelerator member movable in response to driver operation, a position sensor associated with the accelerator member to output a position signal indicating an operation degree of the accelerator member, and signal processing means configured to receive the position signal generated by the position sensor and to generate a command for a motor vehicle engine based on the position signal and a characteristic curve of the accelerator device that defines the command for the motor vehicle engine as a function of the position signal; the signal processing means are further configured to: receive signals indicating a current motor vehicle speed and a target motor vehicle speed, and to dynamically adapt the accelerator device characteristic curve based on the current motor vehicle speed with respect to the target motor vehicle speed.
