摘要： A forward information acquisition unit acquires a road profile ahead of the own vehicle. A position acquisition unit acquires a current position of the own vehicle. A state acquisition unit acquires a current speed of the own vehicle. A command calculation unit calculates a target speed at each point on a road ahead of the own vehicle, based on the road profile and the current position, and calculates a drive command for driving the own vehicle in the longitudinal direction of the own vehicle, based on the target speed and the current speed. The road profile includes a road gradient. The command calculation unit is configured to adjust the drive command, based on variation in the road gradient and Gzmax that is an acceleration limit limiting acceleration of the own vehicle in the vertical direction.

摘要： Systems and methods are provided to enhance the driving performance of a leanable vehicle such as a motorcycle. The system includes a leanable vehicle interface to receive input from a driver (e.g., a human or a robotic driver) and a sensor interface to receive inputs from sensors on the leanable vehicle. The system also includes a computing module to use the sensor data in combination with data from the leanable vehicle interface to calculate the driver behavior to produce a future desired performance, based on a specified aggressiveness, so that the performance of the leanable vehicle is optimized. The calculation may be done using a machine learning method, a rule based method, or both.

摘要： Methods and systems are provided for controlling an engine idle-stop based on upcoming traffic and road conditions. In one example, a method may include receiving data including traffic information and road characteristics immediately ahead of a vehicle from one or more remote sources, and adjusting one or more vehicle thresholds based on the received data. A duration of a prospective engine idle-stop may be estimated based on the received data and an engine idle-stop may be initiated based on the duration of the prospective engine idle-stop and the adjusted one or more vehicle threshold.

摘要： A safety system for a vehicle providing a road departure protection feature comprises a camera, mounted to the vehicle to provide a view of a driving direction of the vehicle, and an electronic control unit connected to the camera. The electronic control unit includes instructions for analyzing the image and comparing the roadway path to the predicted vehicle path. The electronic control unit determines a vehicle roadway departure is occurring when the predicted vehicle path differs from the roadway path by a predetermined threshold, and then determines at least one corrective action to return the vehicle path to the roadway path. The safety system sends instructions to apply at least one corrective action with at least an electronic stability control system.

摘要： In one embodiment, a computer system generates a first vehicular path based on map information. The system collects data points representing geographical coordinates of vehicles that drove on a vehicular path lane at different points in time. The system segments the first vehicular path into path segments based on the collected data points. For each of the path segments, the system applies a smoothing function to select a subset of the data points that are within a predetermined proximity of the corresponding path segment and calculates a segment reference point to represent the path segment by combining the selected data points. The segment reference points of the path segments of the first vehicular path are interpolated to generate a second vehicular path such that the second vehicular path is used as a reference line to control ADVs driving on the first vehicular path.

摘要： A control apparatus for a hybrid vehicle determines a scheduled travel route. The control apparatus further determines a downhill section included in the scheduled travel route by using gradient information acquired for a road section at a time when the vehicle has traveled on the road section and using gradient information stored in a navigation database for a road section on which the vehicle travels for a first time. The control apparatus determines a section from a downhill control start point to an end point of the target downhill section as a downhill control section. The downhill control start point is a point located a predetermined first distance closer to the vehicle from a start point of the target downhill section. When the vehicle travels on the downhill control section, the control apparatus executes downhill control.
