    Abstract: A connector assembly includes a first-housing, a second-housing, and a seal. The second-housing is configured to mate with the first-housing. The second-housing has a seal-support surface having a first-surface and a second-surface perpendicular to the first-surface and generally forming an L-shape. The seal-support surface includes a plurality of seal-hangers projecting laterally from the first-surface. The seal is in direct contact with the seal-support surface. The seal defines a wall and a lip extending laterally from the wall. The wall defines an inner-surface that engages the first-surface and an outer-surface that engages the first-housing. The wall further defines a plurality of apertures configured to receive the plurality of seal-hangers. The lip defines a base that engages the second-surface and a top that engages a leading-edge of the first-housing. The plurality of seal-hangers are configured to inhibit bunching or rolling of the wall when the first-housing is mated with the second-housing.

    Abstract: A connector assembly includes, a connector-body, a dress-cover, a strain-relief-device, and a housing. The a connector-body retains electrical-terminals connected to cables enclosed in conduit. The dress-cover is attached to the connector-body and routes the cables. The dress-cover has sides and a base that receive the connector-body. The strain-relief-device is attached to the dress-cover. The strain-relief-device has a close-out panel having opposed side-edges, a top-edge and a bottom-edge. The housing has walls and a bottom configured to receive the connector-body, the dress-cover, and the strain-relief-device. The walls define a slot, and the connector-body, dress-cover, and a portion of the strain-relief-device are disposed within the slot. The walls have opposing-channels on a first-side and a second-side of the slot and terminate at the stops. The opposing-channels slideably engage the opposed side-edges. The bottom-edge engages the stops when the connector-body, the dress-cover and the portion of the strain-relief-device are disposed within the slot.

    Abstract: An illustrative example method of classifying a detected object includes detecting an object, determining that an estimated velocity of the object is below a preselected threshold velocity requiring classification, determining a time during which the object has been detected, determining a first distance the object moves during the time determining a speed of the object from the first distance and the time, determining a second distance that a centroid of the detected object moves during the time, and classifying the detected object as a slow moving object or a stationary object based on a relationship between the first and second distances and a relationship between the estimated velocity and the speed.

    Abstract: A lane assignment system includes a digital-map, a ranging-sensor, and one or more controller-circuits. The digital-map indicates a position of a host-vehicle traveling in a travel-lane on a roadway. The ranging sensor detects a lateral-distance to an other-vehicle traveling on the roadway proximate the host-vehicle. The one or more controller-circuits are in communication with the digital-map and the ranging-sensor. The one or more controller-circuits determine a lateral-variation of the lateral-distance, determine whether the lateral-variation is greater than a dynamic-threshold, determine whether a second-lane exists beyond a first-lane based on the digital-map, determine that the other-vehicle is traveling in the first-lane, and operate the host-vehicle in accordance with the other-vehicle traveling in the first-lane.

    Abstract: A includes a vehicle and a drone. The vehicle includes a sensor system, a navigation system, a map, and a receiver. The sensor system provides vehicle location data to the navigation system that locates the vehicle on a roadway represented by the map. The sensor system includes one or more of a computer vision system, a radar system, and a LIDAR system. The drone includes a transmitter and at least one position-tracking device configured to determine drone location data. Drone use is initiated from the vehicle in accordance with a determination by the processor that the vehicle location data provided by the sensor system is insufficient for the navigation system to navigate the vehicle. The transmitter is configured to transmit the drone location data to the receiver.

    Abstract: A vehicle control system includes a receiver and a controller-circuit. The receiver is configured to receive a report of a control-event at a location. The control-event is characterized as an other-vehicle changing operation from an automated-mode of operation. The controller-circuit is in communication with the receiver. The controller-circuit is configured to, in response to receiving the report of the control-event at the location, plan a route for a host-vehicle in accordance with the location of the control-event, and operate the host-vehicle in accordance with the route.

    Abstract: A system includes a camera and a controller-circuit. The camera renders a present-image of a host-vehicle loaded with cargo. The present-image depicts the host-vehicle and the cargo carried by the host-vehicle. The cargo protrudes beyond a base-outline of the host-vehicle without cargo. The controller-circuit is in communication with the camera. The controller-circuit is configured to determine, in accordance with the present-image, a size of the host-vehicle and the cargo combined. The size is indicative of at least one of a length of the host-vehicle and the cargo combined, a height of the host-vehicle and the cargo combined, and a width of the host-vehicle and the cargo combined. The controller-circuit is also configured to operate the host-vehicle in accordance with the size.

    Abstract: A vehicle control system includes an object-detector, a location-detector, a configuration-map, and a controller-circuit. The object-detector is configured to detect objects proximate to a host-vehicle. The location-detector is configured to indicate a location of the host-vehicle. The configuration-map is configured to indicate a configuration of the object-detector for the location of the host-vehicle when the host-vehicle is operated in an automated-mode. The controller-circuit is in communication with the location-detector, the configuration-map, and the object-detector. The controller-circuit is configured to operate the object-detector in accordance with the configuration for the location of the host-vehicle when the host-vehicle is operated in an automated-mode, detect a human-override of the automated-mode at the location, and update the configuration-map for the location in accordance with objects detected and in response to the human-override of the automated-mode.
