Device, system, and method for pictorial language for autonomous vehicle
First Claim
1. An autonomous vehicle pictorial language system comprising:
- a plurality of sensors;
a driver preferences database;
a human-machine interface; and
a processing circuitry configured toreceive output from the plurality of sensors,receive a driver model from the driver preferences database, the driver model predicting driver action in a plurality of driving situations based on a safety margin defined in the driver preferences, anddisplay a pictorial language via the human-machine interface in response to the output from the plurality of sensors and the driver model,wherein the pictorial language includes one or more of a noun, verb, first adverb, object classifier, and second adverb to construct a plan sentence.

Abstract
The autonomous vehicle visual language system displays a plan sentence to an operator of an autonomous vehicle. The plan sentence includes visual syntax, the visual syntax being images displayed in predetermined configurations to convey specific information associated with any maneuvers the autonomous vehicle plans to execute. The visual syntax allows for a structured layering of information such that the plan sentence can display more complex information. The operator of the autonomous vehicle can process individual warnings and information more quickly, even when the operator has never seen a particular warning or element of information before. Additionally, the system 100 allows for personalization of a driver model to more closely reflect the operator'"'"'s driving style, which is then implemented in the visual language displayed as the plan sentence.
