Abstract: A method of aligning a tow vehicle (100) with a trailer (200) positioned behind the tow vehicle is provided. The method includes determining a point cloud map of a rear environment of the tow vehicle (100). The rear environment includes the trailer (200). The method also includes determining a front face plane (P) of the trailer (200) based on the point cloud map. The method also includes determining a normal line (N) of the front face plane (P). The method also includes determining a path from the tow vehicle (100) to the trailer (200) such that a fore-aft axis of the tow vehicle is aligned with the normal line (N) of the front face plane (P).

Abstract: A method of generating a map (300) of an area surrounding a vehicle (202) includes sending, by data processing hardware (242) of a vehicle (202), a request for an aerial image associated with the vehicle (202); and receiving the aerial image. The method includes identifying a representation of one or more available parking spaces in the aerial image, and generating a map (300) based upon the aerial image and the identified available parking space representations. The map (300), including the identified available parking space representations, is displayed on a user interface in communication with the vehicle's data processing hardware (242). The method includes receiving a selection of one of the identified available parking space representations, determining a drivable path (306) from the vehicle (202) to a parking space corresponding to the selected parking space representation, and displaying a representation of the drivable path (306) with the map (300).

Abstract: A method for detecting and localizing a trailer coupler (212) of a trailer (200) is provided. The method includes receiving images (143) from a camera (142) positioned on a back portion of a tow vehicle (100) and determining a region of interest (300) within the images (143). The region of interest (300) includes a representation of the trailer coupler (212). The method includes determining a camera plane (310) and a road plane (320). In addition, the method includes determining a three-dimensional point cloud representing objects inside the region of interest (300) and within the camera plane (310) and the road plane (320). The method also includes receiving sensor data from a sensor system (140) and determining a coupler location of the trailer coupler based on the 3D point cloud and the sensor data. The method also includes sending instructions to a drive system (110) causing the tow vehicle (100) to autonomously drive along a path in a rearward direction towards the coupler location.

Abstract: A vehicle positioning system, method and software product for a vehicle are disclosed. The system includes camera disposed on a vehicle for reading an optic label disposed on a landmark or fixed object and capturing an image of a shape also disposed on the landmark. A controller is configured to correct a local map of the vehicle at least partly based upon map information read from the optic label so that the corrected local map references a global coordinate system. The controller is further configured to selectively share the corrected local map with neighboring vehicles within a communication range to collaborate with the neighboring vehicles in constructing a global map, and make the constructed global map available for subsequent reuse.

Abstract: A method for evaluating a collision condition for a vehicle includes providing a first polygon representative of the vehicle, determining the existence of an object near the vehicle, providing a second polygon representative of the object, calculating the Minkowski Difference between the first polygon and the second polygon to create a convex hull, determining the minimum distance between the convex hull and an origin of a coordinate system in which the first polygon and the second polygon are overlayed, determining whether there is a collision condition based on whether the minimum distance is below a threshold value, and initiating a vehicle response if a collision condition is detected.

Abstract: A method of detecting and localizing a coupler (212) of a trailer hitch (210) associated with a trailer (200) positioned behind a tow vehicle (100) is provided. The method includes determining a region of interest (300) within images (143) from a rear camera (142). The region of interest (300) includes a representation of the trailer hitch (210).

Abstract: A predictive management system and method for a machine are disclosed. A controller receives a machine data signal and is configured to predict a future event of the machine from a plurality of future events based upon the received data signals. The controller also, upon the predicted future event being a first failure event, sends instructions to a user interface to display an identification and explanation of the first failure event, and at least one data signal during a defined time interval in which the data signal is associated with the first failure event. The controller includes a trained neural network receives the data signal and includes one or more output layers identifying the predicted future event, a segmentation mask which determines the defined time interval, and a determining block which, based upon the defined time interval, determines the explanation associated with the first failure event in human readable form.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for predicting maintenance for a vehicle system of at least one fleet vehicle. Vehicle data is received from a system of at least one vehicle. The received vehicle data is preprocessed to generate preprocessed data. A time-based window of the preprocessed data is automatically identified. The preprocessed data in the identified time-based window is automatically classified and/or labeled from among a plurality of behaviors. At least one failure and predictive maintenance model is constructed based on the classified, labeled preprocessed data.
