Humanized steering model for automated vehicles
First Claim
1. A humanized steering system for an automated vehicle, said system comprising:
- one or more steering-wheels operable to steer a vehicle;
an angle-sensor configured to determine a steering-angle of the steering-wheels;
a hand-wheel used by an operator of the vehicle to influence the steering-angle and thereby manually steer the vehicle;
a steering-actuator operable to influence the steering-angle thereby steer the vehicle when the operator does not manually steer the vehicle;
a position-sensor operable to indicate a relative-position an object proximate to the vehicle; and
a controller configured toreceive the steering-angle and the relative-position,determine, using deep-learning techniques, a steering-model based on the steering-angle and the relative-position while the operator is using the hand-wheel to manually steer the vehicle, andoperate the steering-actuator when the operator does not manually steer the vehicle to steer the vehicle in accordance with the steering-model, whereby the vehicle is steered in a manner similar to how the operator manually steers the vehicle.

Abstract
A humanized steering system for an automated vehicle includes one or more steering-wheels operable to steer a vehicle, an angle-sensor configured to determine a steering-angle of the steering-wheels, a hand-wheel used by an operator of the vehicle to influence the steering-angle and thereby manually steer the vehicle, a steering-actuator operable to influence the steering-angle thereby steer the vehicle when the operator does not manually steer the vehicle, a position-sensor operable to indicate a relative-position an object proximate to the vehicle, and a controller. The controller is configured to receive the steering-angle and the relative-position, determine, using deep-learning techniques, a steering-model based on the steering-angle and the relative-position, and operate the steering-actuator when the operator does not manually steer the vehicle to steer the vehicle in accordance with the steering-model, whereby the vehicle is steered in a manner similar to how the operator manually steers the vehicle.
