Automatic Autonomous Driving of a Vehicle
First Claim
1. A motor vehicle comprising:
- a plurality of sensors;
a wireless communication unit; and
a control device, coupled to the plurality of sensors and wireless communication unit, wherein the control device is configured to;
receive data from the plurality of sensors and via the wireless communication unit relating to at least one of an environmental condition, a mechanical condition and a health-rated condition;
format the received data into a predetermined format corresponding to at least one detected condition;
compare the at least one detected condition to a plurality of known conditions;
identify a detected known condition when the at least one detected condition matches at least one of the plurality of known conditions;
select, in response to identifying the detected known condition, an automatic autonomous driving mode of the vehicle;
determine a destination corresponding to the detected known condition; and
cause the motor vehicle to automatically travel to the determined destination.

Abstract
A motor vehicle includes a plurality of sensors, a wireless communication unit, and a control device that is configured to receive data from the plurality of sensors and via the wireless communication unit relating to at least one of an environmental condition, a mechanical condition and a health-rated condition. The control unit formats the received data into a predetermined format corresponding to at least one detected condition, and compares the at least one detected condition to a plurality of known conditions. The control unit is further configured to identify a detected known condition when the at least one detected condition matches at least one of the plurality of known conditions, to select, in response to identifying the detected known condition, an automatic autonomous driving mode of the vehicle, and then to execute a predetermined driving maneuver corresponding to the detected known condition.
