Abstract: Methods and systems for monitoring use, determining risk, and pricing insurance policies for a vehicle having one or more autonomous or semi-autonomous operation features are provided. According to certain aspects, the operating status of the features, the identity of a vehicle operator, risk levels for operation of the vehicle by the vehicle operator, or damage to the vehicle may be determined based upon sensor or other data. According to further aspects, decisions regarding transferring control between the features and the vehicle operator may be made based upon sensor data and information regarding the vehicle operator. Additional aspects may recommend or install updates to the autonomous operation features based upon determined risk levels. Some aspects may include monitoring transportation infrastructure and communicating information about the infrastructure to vehicles.

Abstract: According to certain aspects, a computer-implemented method for operating an autonomous or semi-autonomous vehicle may be provided. With the customer's permission, an identity of a vehicle operator may be identified and a vehicle operator profile may be retrieved. Operating data regarding autonomous operation features operating the vehicle may be received from vehicle-mounted sensors. When a request to disable an autonomous feature is received, a risk level for the autonomous feature is determined and compared with a driver behavior setting for the autonomous feature stored in the vehicle operator profile. Based upon the risk level comparison, the autonomous vehicle retains control of vehicle or the autonomous feature is disengaged depending upon which is the safer driver—the autonomous vehicle or the vehicle human occupant. As a result, unsafe disengagement of self-driving functionality for autonomous vehicles may be alleviated. Insurance discounts may be provided for autonomous vehicles having this safety functionality.

Abstract: A driver's hands on/off detection system for detecting whether a driver's hands are on/off a steering wheel during driving is applied to a vehicle. When a driving assistance system is operated by a controller during driving, the driver's hands on/off detection system calculates an electronic motor driven power steering system (MDPS) torque representative value and a vehicle measurement data representative value as a representative value ratio between sensors, and divides a disturbance driving area and a normal driving area by a magnitude of the representative value ratio between sensors to perform sensor detection correction control of a hands on/off check using a disturbance torque threshold to the torque filtering value or torque-based sensing control of a hands on/off check using an upper/lower torque limit value to the torque filtering value, thereby reducing the hands on/off detection errors during driving with only a vehicle-mounted sensor without using a capacitive sensor.

Abstract: A steering wheel hands-on/off detection device includes: an imaging part provided in a vehicle and configured to capture a motion of a driver; a dynamic sensor configured to measure a dynamics motion of the vehicle; an image processor configured to process an image obtained from the imaging part; and a vehicle safety controller. The image processor includes a driver monitoring part configured to derive a behavior type of the driver from the image and a keypoint extraction part configured to extract keypoints of the driver. An optimal torque and an optimal contact force are applied to the keypoints of the driver so that a driver dynamics model optimally controlled to follow a position of the driver is applied. The vehicle safety controller configured to determine steering wheel hands-on/off on the basis of a magnitude of a force applied to the steering wheel, which is estimated from the driver dynamics model.

Abstract: An alerter augmentation system includes one or more processors that determine an alertness of an operator of a vehicle system. The one or more processors also generate operator input requests that are separated in time by a temporal delay. These input requests seek responses or action by the operator in an attempt to keep or make the operator alert. The one or more processors change one or more of the temporal delay between the input requests and/or a type of the input requests that are generated based at least in part on the alertness of the operator that is determined.

Abstract: A vehicle control device includes: a recognition unit configured to recognize a surrounding condition of a vehicle; a driving control unit configured to control acceleration, deceleration, and steering of the vehicle based on a recognition result; and a vehicle abnormality detection unit configured to detect an abnormality in an electric parking brake device. When an abnormality in the driver is detected during traveling of the vehicle, the driving control unit performs control to decelerate the vehicle to a predetermined speed greater than zero by braking by a brake device. In a case where an abnormality in the electric parking brake device is detected before or at a time the vehicle is decelerated to the predetermined speed, the driving control unit causes the vehicle to perform traveling along a traveling road until the recognition unit recognizes a preceding vehicle after the vehicle is decelerated to the predetermined speed.
