AUTONOMOUS PROBABILITY CONTROL
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for controlling a vehicle, comprising the steps of:
- developing an action probability factor based at least in part on a plurality of probability arrays predicting one or more probabilities of a deviation from at least one of a planned vehicle direction, position, speed, and acceleration; and
transitioning between levels of autonomous control based at least in part on the action probability factor.

Abstract
An action probability factor is developed based at least in part on a plurality of probability arrays predicting one or more probabilities of a deviation from at least one of a planned vehicle direction, position, speed, and acceleration. Levels of autonomous control are transitioned based at least in part on the action probability factor.

11. An autonomous vehicle, comprising:
-
a plurality of sensors and receivers for receiving signals, from a plurality of sources, representing at least one of a planned vehicle direction, position, speed, and acceleration; at least one controller programmed to develop an action probability factor based on at least one probability array for at least one of the signals, the probability array predicting a one or more probabilities of a deviation from at least one of the planned vehicle direction, position, speed, and acceleration; and a plurality of vehicle control subsystems; wherein the at least one controller is programmed to transition control of the vehicle between levels of autonomous control based at least in part on the action probability factor. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
