摘要: A remote locking system for an autonomous vehicle is disclosed. The locking system has a locking mechanism operably connected to an axle of the vehicle. The locking mechanism is selectively actuatable to prevent a power system from rotating the axle. The locking system also has a control station connected to the locking mechanism through a wireless network. The control station is configured to remotely actuate the locking mechanism. The power system is autonomously controlled by an electronic control system and the locking mechanism is independent from the electronic control system.

摘要: A control system has at least one sensor configured to track an orientation of a front wheel of a nearby vehicle and provide data indicative of the orientation. The control system also has a computing device including a processor and a memory. The computing device is configured to receive the data from the at least one sensor, determine a wheel angle parameter of the front wheel of the nearby vehicle based on the data, and generate a control command to change at least one of a direction or an acceleration of the vehicle based on the determined wheel angle parameter.

摘要: A control system has at least one thermal imaging sensor configured to track a thermal profile of a wheel of a nearby vehicle and provide data indicative of the thermal profile. The control system also has a computing device including a processor and a memory. The computing device is configured to receive the data from the at least one thermal imaging sensor, determine a wheel angle parameter of the front wheel of the nearby vehicle based on the data, and generate a control command to change at least one of a direction or an acceleration of the vehicle based on the determined wheel angle parameter.

摘要: Described herein is a battery module where the battery module footprint is generally defined by the size and number of battery cells. This is implemented by first optimizing the battery cell structure and stacking orientation for a given battery module footprint. A predetermined number of battery cells are then removed and replaced with components needed to implement a variety of auxiliary functions. For example, the components can be electrical connectors, cooling channels, heating channels and mounting channels for placement of mounting pins. In an implementation, the positions of the removed battery cells can also be mounting points. The predetermined number of battery cells can be a function of the amount of electrical energy needed to be stored by the battery module. The positions of the removed battery cells can be anywhere in the battery module, including the edge or interior positions.

摘要: A vehicle cabin air filtration system has an electronic air filter which removes unwanted air particles from air prior to or after entry into a vehicle cabin. The vehicle cabin air filtration system also has a sensor configured to generate a signal indicative of a parameter and a controller operatively connected to the electronic air filter and the sensor. The controller receives the signal indicative of the parameter from the sensor, compares the parameter to a stored condition, and selectively activates or deactivates the electronic air filter based on the comparison.
