User interface for displaying object-based indications in an autonomous driving system
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- receiving, by one or more processors, sensor data generated by a sensor of a vehicle having an autonomous driving mode, the sensor data identifying at least one object in an environment of the vehicle;
determining, by the one or more processors, a potential problem with respect to the at least one object;
generating, by the one or more processors, visual alert information for the at least one object based on the potential problem; and
displaying, by the one or more processors, the visual alert information of a display of the vehicle with a portion of a route the vehicle is following in the autonomous driving modewherein the visual alert information includes an image surrounding a representation of the vehicle, andwherein appearance of one or more portions of the image can be altered to indicate presence of a potentially problematic identified object.

Abstract
A vehicle has a plurality of control apparatuses, a user input, a geographic position component, an object detection apparatus, memory, and a display. A processor is also included and is programmed to receive the destination information, identify a route, and determine the current geographic location of the vehicle. The processor is also programmed to identify an object and object type based on object information received from the object detection apparatus and to determine at least one warning characteristic of the identified object based on at least one of: the object type, a detected proximity of the detected object to the vehicle, the location of the detected object relative to predetermined peripheral areas of the vehicle, the current geographic location of the vehicle, and the route. The processor is also configured to select and display on the display an object warning image based on the at least one warning characteristic.
