Abstract: A method for the automated driving of a transportation vehicle, having at least one control device for calculating a trajectory, wherein control commands for actuators for setting longitudinal and lateral guidance of the transportation vehicle are calculated for the trajectory and are implemented by the actuators, wherein the control commands are updated at fixed points in time, wherein at each point in time a current emergency trajectory for bringing the transportation vehicle to a standstill is calculated, wherein a set of control commands for actuators for setting at least the lateral guidance are calculated for the emergency trajectory and, in the absence of the control commands for the trajectory, are automatically implemented by the actuators for the emergency trajectory. Also disclosed is an automated transportation vehicle.

Abstract: A method for controlling a maximum allowed speed of an autonomous vehicle includes utilizing a first sensor performance level during driving where the vehicle is allowed to drive with a first maximum allowed speed, while utilizing the first sensor performance level, simultaneously monitoring a rate of false positive object detections for the second sensor performance level which is associated with a second maximum allowed speed which is higher than the first maximum allowed speed and which is a less restrictive sensor performance level, wherein a less restrictive sensor performance level is a sensor performance level with a higher probability of false positive object detections, when the rate of false positive object detections for the second sensor performance level is below a first false positive error threshold, utilizing a less restrictive sensor performance level which is associated with a higher maximum allowed speed, thereby increasing the maximum allowed speed from the first maximum allowed speed to a speed which is equal to or below the second maximum allowed speed.

Abstract: In various examples, systems and methods are disclosed for weighting one or more optional paths based on obstacle avoidance or other safety considerations. In some embodiments, the obstacle avoidance considerations may be computed using a comparison of trajectories representative of safety procedures at present and future projected time steps of an ego-vehicle and other actors to ensure that each actor is capable of implementing their respective safety procedure while avoiding collisions at any point along the trajectory. This comparison may include filtering out a path(s) of an actor at a time step(s)—e.g., using a one-dimensional lookup—based on spatial relationships between the actor and the ego-vehicle at the time step(s). Where a particular path—or point along the path—does not satisfy a collision-free standard, the path may be penalized more negatively with respect to the obstacle avoidance considerations, or may be removed from consideration as a potential path.

Abstract: A control device of a vehicle including an automated traveling unit capable of executing automated traveling functions includes an acquisition unit for acquiring information regarding a use state of a remote driving service for the vehicle, and a control unit for determining a content of the automated traveling function to be executable by the automated traveling unit based on the use state of the remote driving service for the vehicle. In a case where the vehicle is not using the remote driving service, the control unit disables at least some of the automated traveling functions that are executable in a case where the vehicle is using the remote driving service.

Abstract: A method for controlling a mobile vehicle comprises the steps of selecting a control mode for autonomous driving of the mobile vehicle and transmitting information on the selected control mode to the mobile vehicle. The control mode includes a first mode and a second mode of which a restriction on a driving safety is stricter than that of the first mode. The step of selecting the control mode comprises the steps of determining whether a remote support for the mobile vehicle is required, and selecting the first mode as the control mode when it is determined that the remote support is not required whereas selecting the second mode as the control mode when it is determined that the remote support is required.

Abstract: A vehicle control interface includes: a memory in which a program including a predetermined API defined for each of signals is stored; and a processor configured to perform interfacing between an autonomous driving system and a vehicle platform by executing the program. The vehicle platform is configured to be activated in response to one of a first and second activation commands. The first activation command is a command transmitted from the autonomous driving system to the vehicle platform via the vehicle control interface. The second activation command being a command in response to a manual operation on the vehicle platform. The processor is configured to, when the vehicle platform is activated in response to the first activation command, reduce effectiveness of the manual operation on the vehicle platform compared to when the vehicle platform is activated in response to the second activation command.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are a driving assistance apparatus and a driving assistance method. The present disclosure is directed to allowing a driver to quickly and preferably respond to an emergency situation that is not found due to a sensor recognition error during autonomous driving of a vehicle. To this end, a driving assistance method according to the present disclosure includes monitoring a change in driving route of another vehicle traveling in front of a host vehicle through a camera of the host vehicle, receiving a guide route for autonomous driving through vehicle to everything (V2X) communication, and upon the received guide route not matching the driving route of the another vehicle, decelerating the host vehicle to a preset speed so that the host vehicle slowly travels along the guide route.
