    Abstract: Systems and methods for updating navigational maps based using at least one sensor are provided. In one aspect, a control system for an autonomous vehicle, includes a processor and a computer-readable memory configured to cause the processor to: receive output from at least one sensor located on the autonomous vehicle indicative of a driving environment of the autonomous vehicle, retrieve a navigational map used for driving the autonomous vehicle, and detect one or more inconsistencies between the output of the at least one sensor and the navigational map. The computer-readable memory is further configured to cause the processor to: in response to detecting the one or more inconsistencies, trigger mapping of the driving environment based on the output of the at least one sensor, update the navigational map based on the mapped driving environment, and drive the autonomous vehicle using the updated navigational map.

    Abstract: Provided herein is a system for use in determining right-of-way. The system includes a host vehicle at or approaching an intersection, and the host vehicle includes a transceiver configured for vehicle-to-vehicle communication and a control unit. The control unit is configured to receive a local map of an area surrounding the intersection; receive, via the transceiver, a first signal from at least one client vehicle, wherein the first signal indicates the at least one client vehicle is at or approaching the intersection; determine, based upon a set of rules, that the host vehicle is an arbitrator, wherein the arbitrator assigns a priority value for right-of-way to each vehicle at or approaching the intersection; and transmit, via the transceiver, a second signal to the at least one client vehicle, wherein the second signal includes the assigned priority values for each vehicle at or approaching the intersection.
