    Abstract: Systems and methods for tele-present recovery of self-driving vehicles are disclosed. The system comprises one or more self-driving vehicles, a server, and a master-assistance device. The vehicle operates in a full-autonomous mode until a problem is encountered, triggering a vehicle status associated with a master-assisted intervention. A master-assisted intervention request and associated environment state information are sent from the server to the master-assistance device. A human operator of the master-assisted intervention device provides input indicative of operational commands for the vehicle. The operational commands are received by the vehicle, and the vehicle is operated in a semi-autonomous mode based on the operational commands. When the problem has been resolved, an assistance complete message is sent to the vehicle, and the vehicle returns to operating in the full-autonomous mode.
