Abstract: A driving assist apparatus for a vehicle includes a front-side-environment recognition camera, a front-side-environment recognition sensor, and a control device. The front-side-environment recognition camera is configured to recognize a driving environment ahead of the vehicle. The front-side-environment recognition sensor is configured to recognize the driving environment ahead of the vehicle. In a case where image recognition of the front-side-environment recognition camera for a leading vehicle for adaptive cruise control has deteriorated during execution of the adaptive cruise control, the control device is configured to continue executing the adaptive cruise control based on a distance from the vehicle to the leading vehicle obtained by the front-side-environment recognition sensor.

Abstract: A vehicle includes: a driving wheel; at least one prime mover; a user interface that receives user's selection of a first traveling mode or a second traveling mode; and processing circuitry configured to control the prime mover in accordance with the selected traveling mode. When a selection disabling condition indicating a predetermined vehicle state is satisfied, the processing circuitry disables selection of the first traveling mode which is performed by the user's selection. When the selection disabling condition is satisfied while the vehicle is traveling in the first traveling mode, the processing circuitry continues the first traveling mode until a switching condition indicating a predetermined vehicle state is satisfied. When the selection disabling condition is satisfied while the vehicle is traveling in the first traveling mode, and the switching condition is satisfied, the processing circuitry switches the traveling mode to the second traveling mode regardless of the user's selection.

Abstract: Presented are control systems for operating dual-independent drive unit (DIDU) powertrains, methods for making/operating such systems, and electric-drive vehicles with fault management and mitigation for DIDU axles. A method of operating a motor vehicle with a DIDU axle includes monitoring first and second drive units (DU) that are independently operable to drive respective road wheels via respective axle shafts of the DIDU axle. A vehicle controller receives an indication of a fault condition in the first DU from a fault sensing module and responsively determines a fault type for the fault condition. The controller ascertains the vehicle's current speed and determines a respective torque limit for each of the DIDU drive units based on the fault type and current vehicle speed. Torque output of the first DU is concomitantly constrained to a first torque limit while torque output of the second DU is constrained to a second torque limit.

Abstract: A navigation instruction of an autonomous vehicle is detected. The autonomous vehicle is in an environment. The autonomous vehicle is communicatively coupled to a plurality of sensors configured to capture environmental information of the environment. An anomalous sensor status of a first sensor of the plurality of sensors is determined based on the plurality of sensors. An air measurement is identified in response to the anomalous sensor status and based on a second sensor of the plurality of sensors. The air measurement is adjacent to the autonomous vehicle. Autonomous movement operation of the autonomous vehicle is directed in response to the movement instruction and based on the air measurement.

Abstract: A vehicle control method includes defining a set of multiple workloads, each workload including a workload descriptor and at least one containerized image configured to execute at least one vehicle control process, the workload descriptor defining a safety level of the workload, one or more vehicle system resources used by the least one containerized image of the workload, and a vehicle system location for executing the containerized images. The method includes allocating vehicle system resources to each workload according to the workload descriptors, wherein the vehicle system resources include at least one of a central processor utilization, a graphics processor utilization, a memory size, an artificial intelligence accelerator, or a video codec, executing the vehicle control processes of the containerized images of the multiple workloads, and in response to a vehicle system resource conflict, assigning higher priority resource access to workloads having a critical safety level.

Abstract: A control system is provided for a vehicle that includes a plurality of vehicle corner modules (VCMs) which each comprise at least two of: a drive subsystem, a steering subsystem, and a braking subsystem. The control system comprises a network of VCM-controllers that are onboard and installed within a different respective VCM and that are operatively linked to each one of the subsystems of its respective VCM to receive therefrom sensor data and to regulate operation thereof in response to incoming signals received from outside its respective VCM. The control system provides a no-fault operating mode defined by the absence of a control-system fault, and a VCM-controller of a first VCM is programmed to control, when operating in the no-fault operating mode, at least one subsystem in a second VCM.
