Abstract: A system comprises an autonomous vehicle (AV) and an operation server operably coupled with the AV. The operation server accesses environmental data associated with a road traveled by the AV. The environmental data is associated with a time window during which the AV is traveling along the road. The operation server compares the environmental data with map data that comprises expected road conditions ahead of the AV. The operation server determines whether the environmental data comprises an unexpected road condition that is not included in the map data. In response to determining that the environmental data comprises the unexpected road condition that is not included in the map data, the operation server determines a location coordinate of the unexpected road condition, and communicates a command to the AV to maneuver to avoid the unexpected road condition.

Abstract: A gateway processor coordinates communication among an autonomous vehicle components boundary domain, a vehicle boundary domain, and an oversight server. The gateway processor receives a message from the oversight server. The gateway processor determines a priority level, a domain tag data, and destination data associated with the message. The priority level indicates a scheduling requirement associated with the message. The domain tag data indicates that the message is associated with a particular domain from among the autonomous vehicle components boundary domain, the vehicle components boundary domain, or the security domain. The destination data indicates that the message is designated to a particular component within the particular domain. In response, the gateway processor schedules the message to be transmitted to the particular domain. The gateway processor routes the message to the particular component.

Abstract: A mobile terminal system includes equipment used to establish a terminal site with at least one landing pad sized and shaped to accommodate an autonomous vehicle of a fleet. A control subsystem determines that an autonomous vehicle of the fleet is in-bound to the established terminal site. After determining the in-bound autonomous vehicle, landing instructions are determined that indicate a landing pad in which the in-bound autonomous vehicle is to stop and a route that the in-bound autonomous vehicle is to travel along to reach the landing pad. The landing instructions are provided to the in-bound autonomous vehicle. The landing instructions cause the in-bound autonomous vehicle to travel along the route to the landing pad.

Abstract: A system includes an autonomous vehicle and an oversight server. The oversight server obtain sensor data from the autonomous vehicle. The sensor data may include a location of the autonomous vehicle. The oversight server determines that one or more criteria apply to the autonomous vehicle based on the sensor data. The one or more criteria includes a geofence area, a particular time window, and a credential associated with a third party. The oversight server grants remote access to the autonomous vehicle in response to determining that the one or more criteria apply to the autonomous vehicle.

Abstract: A system for instructing an Autonomous Vehicle (AV) to perform a minimal risk condition maneuver comprises a fleet of AVs and an oversight server. The oversight server receives macro information that applies to a plurality of AVs from the fleet. The oversight server generates a batch command based on the macro information. The batch command is associated with one or more conditions. The oversight server determines whether each AV meets the one or more conditions. If the oversight server determines that the AV meets the one or more conditions, the oversight server sends the batch command to the AV. The batch command includes instructions to perform a minimal risk condition maneuver.

Abstract: A lead autonomous vehicle (AV) includes a sensor configured to observe a field of view in front of the lead AV. Following AVs are on the same road behind the lead AV. A processor of the lead AV is configured to detect a road closure. The processor overrides driving instructions of the lead AV, such that the lead AV is stopped at first location coordinates. The processor sends a first message to an operation server, indicating that the road closure is detected. The operation server update the first portion of the map data, reflecting the road closure. The operation server determines whether re-routing is possible for each AV. If re-routing is possible is possible for that AV, the operation server sends re-routing instructions to the AV. If re-routing is not possible is possible for that AV, the operation server sends pulling over instructions to the AV.

Abstract: A lead autonomous vehicle (AV) includes a sensor configured to observe a field of view in front of the lead AV. Following AVs are on the same road behind the lead AV. A processor of the lead AV is configured to detect an unknown object within the field of view by comparing sensor data received from the sensor and a map data. The processor determines a lane occupied by the unknown object. The processor sends a first message to the following AVs comprising location coordinates of the unknown object and instructions to divert the lane. The processor instructs the lead AV to navigate around the unknown object. While navigating around the unknown object, the processor sends a plurality of second messages to an operation server, comprising sensor data related to the unknown object. The operation server updates the map data, indicating the unknown object at the location coordinates.

Abstract: A lead autonomous vehicle (AV) includes a sensor configured to observe a field of view in front of the lead AV. Following AVs are on the same road behind the lead AV. A processor of the lead AV is configured to detect a road structural change on the particular road. The processor updates driving instructions of the lead AV to navigate through the structural change using driving instructions related to the structural change. The processor sends a first message to the operation server indicating that the structural change is detected. The operation server updates the first portion of the map data, reflecting the structural change. The operation server sends the updated map data to the one or more following AVs.
