Abstract: An autonomous-capable vehicle which can be operated in a transitional state from manual vehicle operation to autonomous vehicle operation. In the transitional state, the vehicle operates autonomously and overrides manual interaction of the user. To maintain the transitional state, the driver performs a continuous action, such as providing a continuous interaction with a switching mechanism.

Abstract: A user interface device for an autonomous vehicle (AV) can include an autonomy engage selector and a plurality of vehicle interfaces connected in series. Each of the plurality of vehicle interfaces can correspond to a respective vehicle operation and can include a relay that engages when the vehicle interface is in a ready state. The user interface device can also include a drive-by-wire controller to autonomously operate each of the plurality of vehicle interfaces in response to an engage input on the autonomy engage selector when the user interface device is in a ready condition.

Abstract: An autonomy controller for a vehicle. The autonomy controller detects a user input to enable an autonomous driving mode for the vehicle. In response to the user input, the autonomy controller determines a condition of one or more control interfaces configured to control respective vehicle operations. The autonomy controller may then selectively enable the autonomous driving mode based at least in part on the condition of each of the one or more control interfaces. For example, the autonomy controller may enable the autonomous driving mode only if each of the one or more control interfaces is in a ready condition.

Abstract: A control interface for a first vehicle operation of an autonomous vehicle. The control interface detects an autonomy activation signal to enable a first automated controller to control the first vehicle operation. The control interface then couples the first automated controller to a vehicle control platform configured to manage the first vehicle operation in response to input signals. For example, the control inter face may include a double-throw electromechanical relay that switchably couples the vehicle control platform to one of the first automated controller or a manual input mechanism. The control interface then provides the input signals to the vehicle control platform from the first automated controller.
