摘要： A vehicle includes: a driving wheel; at least one prime mover; a user interface that receives user's selection of a first traveling mode or a second traveling mode; and processing circuitry configured to control the prime mover in accordance with the selected traveling mode. When a selection disabling condition indicating a predetermined vehicle state is satisfied, the processing circuitry disables selection of the first traveling mode which is performed by the user's selection. When the selection disabling condition is satisfied while the vehicle is traveling in the first traveling mode, the processing circuitry continues the first traveling mode until a switching condition indicating a predetermined vehicle state is satisfied. When the selection disabling condition is satisfied while the vehicle is traveling in the first traveling mode, and the switching condition is satisfied, the processing circuitry switches the traveling mode to the second traveling mode regardless of the user's selection.

摘要： Tracking component decisions may comprise generating a data structure in association with an output determined by a component. This data structure, along with one or more data structures generated in association with other outputs generated by the same or different components of the vehicle, may be used to determine a trace that identifies component(s) that determined outputs that affected a particular component's generation of an output. The data structures and/or traces may be used to determine whether a component is the source of an error, a portion of the component that is the source of the error, unintended impacts to unmodified portions of components, among additional or alternate uses discussed herein.

摘要： This document describes techniques, systems, and methods for multi-scan sensor fusion for object tracking. A sensor-fusion system can obtain radar tracks and vision tracks generated for an environment of a vehicle. The sensor-fusion system maintains sets of hypotheses for associations between the vision tracks and the radar tracks based on multiple scans of radar data and vision data. The set of hypotheses include mass values for the associations. The sensor-fusion system determines a probability value for each hypothesis. Based on the probability value, matches between radar tracks and vision tracks are determined. The sensor-fusion system then outputs the matches to a semi-autonomous or autonomous driving system to control operation of the vehicle. In this way, the described techniques, systems, and methods can provide high-precision object tracking with quantifiable uncertainty.

摘要： Presented are control systems for operating dual-independent drive unit (DIDU) powertrains, methods for making/operating such systems, and electric-drive vehicles with fault management and mitigation for DIDU axles. A method of operating a motor vehicle with a DIDU axle includes monitoring first and second drive units (DU) that are independently operable to drive respective road wheels via respective axle shafts of the DIDU axle. A vehicle controller receives an indication of a fault condition in the first DU from a fault sensing module and responsively determines a fault type for the fault condition. The controller ascertains the vehicle's current speed and determines a respective torque limit for each of the DIDU drive units based on the fault type and current vehicle speed. Torque output of the first DU is concomitantly constrained to a first torque limit while torque output of the second DU is constrained to a second torque limit.

摘要： In an example, a first computer includes a processor coupled to a memory, the memory including first instructions executable by the processor to transmit a message, responsive to receipt of an indicator from the first sensor of a first system, to an input of a digital model of the first system. The message can include data describing the indicator and data describing an operational and/or a physical environment of the first system. The first instructions can additionally include instructions to receive, responsive to the digital model executing programming of the first system, in which the second instructions are to modify an operation of the first system based on the described operational and/or physical environments.

摘要： A navigation instruction of an autonomous vehicle is detected. The autonomous vehicle is in an environment. The autonomous vehicle is communicatively coupled to a plurality of sensors configured to capture environmental information of the environment. An anomalous sensor status of a first sensor of the plurality of sensors is determined based on the plurality of sensors. An air measurement is identified in response to the anomalous sensor status and based on a second sensor of the plurality of sensors. The air measurement is adjacent to the autonomous vehicle. Autonomous movement operation of the autonomous vehicle is directed in response to the movement instruction and based on the air measurement.

摘要： A control system is provided for a vehicle that includes a plurality of vehicle corner modules (VCMs) which each comprise at least two of: a drive subsystem, a steering subsystem, and a braking subsystem. The control system comprises a network of VCM-controllers that are onboard and installed within a different respective VCM and that are operatively linked to each one of the subsystems of its respective VCM to receive therefrom sensor data and to regulate operation thereof in response to incoming signals received from outside its respective VCM. The control system provides a no-fault operating mode defined by the absence of a control-system fault, and a VCM-controller of a first VCM is programmed to control, when operating in the no-fault operating mode, at least one subsystem in a second VCM.
