Abstract: A method for producing a suitable distance between an autonomous vehicle and a second vehicle. The method includes recording data of an environment including the second vehicle driving ahead of the autonomous vehicle along a direction of travel, the data being recorded by a sensor system positioned relative to the autonomous vehicle in the direction of travel and in communication with a computing unit. The method includes detecting a potentially dangerous situation by the sensor system based on a distance between the autonomous vehicle and the second vehicle. The method includes adjusting the autonomous vehicle to maintain the suitable between the autonomous vehicle and the second vehicle.

Abstract: Embodiments herein include an oversized automated vehicle having a trailer portion and tractor portion performing a J-hook turn at an intersection. The automated vehicle includes an autonomy system for gathering and processing various types of data. The autonomy system generates a candidate trajectory, including the trailer path and the tractor path performing a J-hook turn, and generates driving instructions for the automated vehicle according to a satisfactory candidate trajectory. The autonomy system applies an optimization function for iteratively generating and modifying the candidate trajectory. Using the map data for the intersection, the optimization function modifies the candidate trajectory, such that if the tractor or the trailer were to drive along the predicted tractor path and trailer path, then the tractor and the trailer would perform the J-hook turn while fitting within the drivable surface boundary and inner boundaries (e.g., driving lanes).

Abstract: A method may include monitoring, by a processor associated with an autonomous vehicle, a status of a traffic light. The method may include monitoring, by the processor, a movement status of at least one vehicle within a same lane as the autonomous vehicle, the at least one vehicle having a stationary position in relation to the traffic light. The method may include executing, by the processor, a computer model to predict a change of movement status for the at least one vehicle in accordance with the status of the traffic light. The method may include in response to the computer model predicting a change of movement status for the at least one vehicle from the stationary position to a moving status, instructing, by the processor, the autonomous vehicle to increase a torque value of the autonomous vehicle at a predetermined time before the change of the movement status.

Abstract: Systems and methods of automatic correction of map data for autonomous vehicle navigation are disclosed. One or more servers can receive an indication of a traffic condition at an autonomous vehicle hub; upon receiving the indication of the traffic condition at the autonomous vehicle hub, identify an autonomous vehicle traveling a route that includes the autonomous vehicle hub; generate a control command for the autonomous vehicle based on the route and the traffic condition; and transmit the control command to the autonomous vehicle to correct the traffic condition at the autonomous vehicle hub.

Abstract: Embodiments herein include an autonomy system of an automated vehicle performing operations for detecting and avoiding lazy or unpredictable vehicles on a roadway. The autonomy system generates bounding boxes for tracking traffic vehicles recognized in sensor data. For close vehicles, the autonomy system generates expanded bounding boxes. The autonomy system determines the close vehicle is an encroaching vehicle by detecting that the expanded bounding box of the close vehicle overlapped the middle lane line or enters into the automated vehicle's current lane of travel. The autonomy system may simulate the behavior of the close vehicle by forward-propagating predicted positions of the close vehicle and expanded bounding box over some future time. In response to detecting the encroaching vehicle, the autonomy system may determine whether to perform an avoidance action or select a particular avoidance action, such as biasing away from the encroaching vehicle.

Abstract: Aspects of this technical solution can include determining, by one or more processors of a liquid collection system and based on respective amounts of liquid detected by a plurality of sensors and a velocity of a vehicle, a direction of movement of the liquid. The plurality of sensors can each be associated with respective ones of a plurality of receptacles. The plurality of sensors can be configured to detect respective amounts of liquid collected by respective openings of each of the plurality of receptacles associated with corresponding directions of movement of a liquid. The plurality of receptacles can be configured to collect at least a portion of the liquid via the respective openings.

Abstract: A method of providing information around road based events through autonomous vehicles. The method describes how a system can maintain or upload information around a digital map indicating locations of events detected. The system can react to updated events to affect route planning, biasing and lane selection. The system can transmit updated map information to various road users including other autonomous vehicles.

Abstract: Systems and methods of generating and updating a world model for autonomous vehicle navigation are disclosed. An autonomous vehicle system can receive sensor data from a plurality of sensors of an autonomous vehicle, where the sensor data is captured during operation of the autonomous vehicle; access a world model generated based at least on map information corresponding to a location of the operation of the autonomous vehicle; determine at least one semantic correction for the world model based on the sensor data; determine at least one geometric correction for the world model based on the sensor data and the map information; and generate an updated world model based on the at least one semantic correction and the at least one geometric correction.

Abstract: A system can include one or more processors. The processors can be configured to receive, from a vehicle via first one or more sensors of the vehicle, first images or video of a physical environment surrounding the vehicle; receive, from an energy supply station via second one or more sensors of the energy supply station, second images or video of the physical environment surrounding the vehicle; and responsive to receiving the first images or video and the second images or video, generate a virtual interface depicting the physical environment based on the first images or video and the second images or video, the virtual interface enabling a user to provide input to control a mechanical arm of the energy supply station to supply energy to the vehicle.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein implement an improved autonomy system with a beneficial approach to implementation a localization loop. When the automated vehicle loses access to geolocation data updates, the autonomy system invokes a geo-denied localization loop that performs map localization and motion estimation functions without geolocation data. The localization loop feeds map localizer outputs into a motion estimator of the INS and/or the IMU, and feeds motion estimation outputs from the motion estimator back into the map localizer. When executing the localization loop, the autonomy system detects outlier measurements as errors in the map localizer and mitigates the errors in the map localizer or the motion estimator. The autonomy system executes programming in an error detection phase for monitoring and detecting errors in the localization loop, and an error mitigation phase for mitigating or resolving errors, such as applying a covariance boosting value on outputted data values.
