Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a method, apparatus, and computer-readable storage medium for trajectory update using remote vehicle control. According to an embodiment, the above-described method, apparatus, and computer-readable storage medium of the present disclosure generally relate to identifying an obstacle blocking at least a portion of a road based on data received from one or more vehicle sensors, determining whether a path trajectory cannot be found to operate the vehicle with respect to the identified obstacle while the vehicle is operating in autonomous mode, sending, upon determination that the path trajectory cannot be found, a request to a remote controller to navigate the vehicle, operating the vehicle in remotely controlled mode, based upon instructions received from the remote controller, wherein a movement trajectory of the vehicle is recorded while being operated in the remotely controlled mode, and updating a navigational map based at least on the recorded movement trajectory.
