Abstract:
A method for controlling an autonomous vehicle includes: Receiving data relating to a plurality of proposed vehicle locations; generating a simulated vehicle path based on the received data; determining a simulated vehicle orientation for at least one point on the simulated vehicle path; presenting at least the simulated vehicle orientation in a user-discernable form; receiving a user verification of the simulated vehicle orientation for at least one point on the simulated vehicle path; and producing approved vehicle control commands from the simulated vehicle path and simulated vehicle orientation, the approved vehicle control commands controlling the autonomous vehicle to follow the simulated vehicle path and the simulated vehicle orientation.
Abstract:
A method for controlling an autonomous vehicle. Data relating to a plurality of proposed vehicle locations is received and a simulated vehicle path based on the received data is generated. A simulated vehicle orientation for at least one point on the simulated vehicle path is determined and presented in a user-discernable form. User verification of the simulated vehicle orientation for at least one point on the simulated vehicle path is received. Approved vehicle control commands from the simulated vehicle path and simulated vehicle orientation are produced such that the approved vehicle control commands control the autonomous vehicle to follow the simulated vehicle path and the simulated vehicle orientation.
