Abstract:
A system and method for providing an autonomous delivery vehicle (ADV) incorporated with intelligent ramp control is disclosed. The ADV is configured to make decisions to deploy/retract the ramps depending on some conditions around the ADV. The ADV comprising a computing device including a means for executing artificial intelligence (AI) software, a ramp system comprising a plurality of ramps, and a sensor assembly in communication with the computing device to collect environmental data around the ADV. The data is communicated to the AI software, which is configured to analyze the environmental data to detect one or more obstacles proximate to the plurality of ramps of the ADV. Further, AI software determines a decision to deploy/retract at least one ramp based on the analysis and transmits the decision to the computing device. The computing device is configured to manipulate each ramp to deploy/retract based on the received decision.
