Abstract: A driving assist method is performed by a controller that performs a lane change assist based on a generated target route. A determination is made as to whether or not the lane change has been executed. Next, it determines whether or not the lane change is in a direction toward a preset location due to a driver's operation when the lane change has been executed. Then, a determination is made as to whether or not a position index value from the host vehicle to the preset location is equal to or less than a first threshold value when the lane change is in a direction toward the preset location due to the driver's operation. The lane change assist in a direction away from the preset location is restricted when the position index value is equal to or less than the first threshold value.

Abstract: A robot moves about an environment and may interact with a user. A waypoint specifies where the robot is to move to with respect to the user while a proxemic cost map is used to plan the path to the waypoint. User input or preferences may be used to modify the waypoint or the proxemic cost map. The waypoint may specify a particular distance and bearing with respect to the user. The proxemic cost map may be oriented with respect to the user and specifies costs for particular areas. For example, an area immediately behind the user may have a very high cost while an area in front of the user may have a low cost. Based on the waypoint and the proxemic cost map, a path is selected and the robot moves along that path, avoiding the high cost areas in favor of the low cost areas if possible.

Abstract: In an example, a method captures, at a first connected vehicle situated in a travel path segment, first sensor data describing an environment proximate to the first connected vehicle. The environment includes a first unconnected vehicle. The method wirelessly receives, via a communication network at the first connected vehicle from a second connected vehicle situated in the travel path segment, second sensor data describing one or more operating characteristics of the first unconnected vehicle. The method estimates, using the first sensor data and the second sensor data, a vehicle action of the first unconnected vehicle.

The method can determine a merging plan for a merging vehicle traveling in the second lane to merge into the first lane based on a vehicle position, and in some cases the speed, of the reference vehicle in the first lane. The method can overlay, via a display device, a virtual target in a field of view of a roadway environment of a driver of the merging vehicle based on the merging plan of the merging vehicle.
