1. A method comprising:
- determining, using one or more processors of a vehicle, a vehicle operation profile for the vehicle, the determining of the vehicle operation profile comprising aggregating a plurality of stored passenger profiles, the plurality of stored passenger profiles being demographically similar to a stored passenger profile of at least one passenger located within the vehicle;
measuring, using one or more passenger sensors of the vehicle, passenger data of the at least one passenger;
updating, using the one or more processors, the vehicle operation profile based on the passenger data; and
navigating, using a control module of the vehicle, the vehicle using the updated vehicle operation profile.

Abstract
Among other things, we describe techniques for operation of a vehicle based on measured load characteristics and/or passenger comfort. One or more sensors of the vehicle can measure passenger data and/or load data of the vehicle. The passenger data and/or load data of the vehicle can be used by the vehicle to determine how to navigate within the surrounding environment.

18. An autonomous vehicle comprising:
-
one or more computer processors; and one or more non-transitory storage media storing instructions which, when executed by the one or more computer processors, cause the one or more computer processors to; determine a vehicle operation profile for the vehicle, the determining of the vehicle operation profile comprising aggregating a plurality of stored passenger profiles, the plurality of stored passenger profiles being demographically similar to a stored passenger profile of at least one passenger located within the vehicle; measure, using one or more passenger sensors of the vehicle, passenger data of the at least one passenger; update the vehicle operation profile based on the passenger data; and navigate, using a control module of the vehicle, the vehicle using the updated vehicle operation profile.

19. One or more non-transitory storage media storing instructions which, when executed by one or more computing devices, cause the one or more computing devices to:
-
determine a vehicle operation profile for the vehicle, the determining of the vehicle operation profile comprising aggregating a plurality of stored passenger profiles, the plurality of stored passenger profiles being demographically similar to a stored passenger profile of at least one passenger located within the vehicle; measure, using one or more passenger sensors of the vehicle, passenger data of the at least one passenger; update the vehicle operation profile based on the passenger data; and navigate, using a control module of the vehicle, the vehicle using the updated vehicle operation profile. - View Dependent Claims (20)
