Abstract: A motor vehicle drive system controller is adapted to automatic drive control, the engine and the transmission being among the objects of control. The power output of the motor is controlled so as to maintain either a consistent drivable mode or a consistent undrivable mode as the automatic transmission shifts gears while the vehicle is running under automatic drive control. The consistent drivable mode refers to a state where the output torque of the motor is greater than the sum of the average running resistance and the variation in the running resistance and the consistent undrivable mode refers to a state where the output torque of the motor is smaller than the difference of the average running resistance and the variation in the running resistance. The automatic drive control function is prohibited when the controller detects abnormality in the transmission.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to a system having a memory, a plurality of self-driving systems for controlling a vehicle, and one or more processors. The processors are configured to receive at least one fallback task in association with a request for a primary task and at least one trigger of each fallback task. Each trigger is a set of conditions that, when satisfied, indicate when a vehicle requires attention for proper operation. The processors are also configured to send instructions to the self-driving systems to execute the primary task and receive status updates from the self-driving systems. The processors are configured to determine that a set of conditions of a trigger is satisfied based on the status updates and send further instructions based on the associated fallback task to the self-driving systems.

Abstract: A method for compensating for a manifesting diminished performance of a computing device of a vehicle that executes vehicle functions. A computing unit takes sensor data for determining a control variable for executing the vehicle function, such as a driving function of the vehicle. In the method, the functional capability of the computing device is monitored to detect a manifesting diminished performance and, when diminished performance is detected, to determine a performance variable that is characteristic of a still available functional capability of the computing device and determining an error variable that is characteristic of an error type relating to the diminished performance of the computing device. When the performance of the vehicle function task is at risk, a compensation function for substitutive execution is determined based on the performance variable or error variable and based on the vehicle function task to be performed.

Abstract: According to the present disclosure, there is an effect in that a braking control unit controls a braking actuator of a vehicle and biased-brakes the vehicle in order to satisfy a target biased braking torque by receiving a target biased braking torque value calculated by an integrated control unit, and when biased braking power is generated in a vehicle by the braking control unit, a suspension control unit receives a signal from the integrated control unit to control a height of a suspension to be increased in order to reduce a yaw motion of the vehicle.

Abstract: A failover system for autonomous vehicles, including: detecting an error associated with a hardware resource of a first autonomous driving system of the autonomous vehicle; performing a failover from the first autonomous driving system to a second autonomous driving system comprising fewer hardware resources relative to the first autonomous driving system, wherein performing the failover causes control operations generated by the second autonomous driving system to be applied to the autonomous vehicle instead of control operations generated by the first autonomous driving system; and reconfigure one or more other hardware resources of the first autonomous driving system not associated with the error into a redundant autonomous driving system.

Abstract: A method for operating a vehicle equipped for an automated driving operation. In a regular operating mode of the automated driving operation the vehicle is guided to a target position in an automated manner by a main control device, and in an emergency operating mode of the automated driving operation, it is moved into a safe stopping position in an automated manner by an auxiliary control device. A functional readiness of the auxiliary control device is continuously checked by the main control device. Depending on the checked functional readiness, a decision is made regarding whether a release for the automated driving operation should be granted or withdrawn. The automated driving operation is exclusively activated when the release has been granted, and is deactivated when the release is withdrawn.

Abstract: A vehicle control method includes obtaining sensor status information and autonomous driving function information, where the sensor status information includes information indicating that one or more sensors are in a failed state. The autonomous driving function information indicates a currently running autonomous driving function. The autonomous driving function includes a plurality of running conditions, and implementation of each running condition is related to one or more sub-functions. A driving policy is implemented based on the impact of a failure of the one or more sensors on the running condition and the currently running autonomous driving function.

Abstract: In one example embodiment, a computer-implemented method includes receiving data representing a motion plan of the autonomous vehicle via a plurality of control lanes configured to implement the motion plan to control a motion of the autonomous vehicle, the plurality of control lanes including at least a first control lane and a second control lane, and controlling the first control lane to implement the motion plan. The method includes detecting one or more faults associated with implementation of the motion plan by the first control lane or the second control lane, or in generation of the motion plan, and in response to one or more faults, controlling the first control lane or the second control lane to adjust the motion of the autonomous vehicle based at least in part on one or more fault reaction parameters associated with the one or more faults.
