    Abstract: A vehicle control device of the embodiment includes a recognizer that recognizes a surrounding situation of a host vehicle; and a driving controller that controls one or both of steering or acceleration/deceleration of the host vehicle to cause the host vehicle to travel, wherein the driving controller causes the host vehicle to travel in any of a plurality of driving modes including a first driving mode in which the host vehicle travels so that the speed of the host vehicle reaches a target speed, and the driving controller restricts the execution of at least the first driving mode when a specific object is recognized in a traveling direction of the host vehicle based on map information or a recognition result from the recognizer during the execution of the first driving mode.

    Abstract: A navigational system for a host vehicle may comprise at least one processor. The processor may be programmed to receive an image representative of an environment of the host vehicle; analyze the image to identify a navigational state associated with the host vehicle; and determine, based on the navigational state, a navigational action for the host vehicle based on a policy that maps possible navigational actions to sensed states. The navigational action may be based on a safety constraint applicable to the navigational state, the safety constraint including a safety distance constraint associated with the host vehicle, wherein the safety distance constraint is based on a determined speed of the host vehicle and a determined speed of a detected target object. The processor may cause an adjustment of a navigational actuator of the host vehicle to implement the determined navigational action.

    Abstract: To automatically follow a host vehicle to a destination location, a client device in a vehicle identifies a host vehicle to follow to a destination location, transmits a communication signal to the identified host vehicle, and receives a response signal from the identified host vehicle. The client device determines a position of the host vehicle relative to the vehicle based on a round trip time of the communication signal and the response signal, and adjusts control of the vehicle in accordance with the position of the host vehicle relative to the vehicle.
