Abstract: A flight status inspection system, flight status inspection method and non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing program inspect the flight status of a flying object (drone) capable of flying through the air. The drone has a gravitational center movement device for moving the position of the gravitational center of the entire drone. In addition, the flight status inspection system has an inspection device for acquiring and storing information about the flight status when moving the position of the gravitational center of the drone during flight, or when changing the flight details during movement of the gravitational center of the drone.

Abstract: Provided herein is a vehicle control device that includes a recognition unit that recognizes a surrounding status of a vehicle and a driving control unit that controls a speed and/or a steering of the vehicle. The driving control unit performs switching to a second driving state in which a driver has a higher degree of a monitoring obligation than in a first driving state. The vehicle control device further includes a map updating unit that updates intrinsic map information on the basis of the recognition result and when switching from the first driving state to the second driving state is performed by the driving control unit.

Abstract: A remote driving method using another autonomous device of a network in automated vehicle & highway systems can including transmitting, to a second device, a remote driving request message, when a message indicating impossibility of communication between a first device and a terminal connected to the network is received from the terminal, receiving, from the second device, a success response message for establishment of communication for remote driving of the first device, and transmitting, to the first device, a remote driving start message. One or more of an autonomous vehicle, a user terminal and a server of the present invention can be associated with artificial intelligence modules, drones (unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs)), robots, augmented reality (AR) devices, virtual reality (VR) devices, devices related to 5G service, etc.

Abstract: A platooning controller, a vehicle system including the same, and a method thereof perform braking control based on a hitch angle. The platooning controller includes a processor that controls platooning of one or more vehicles, each with a trailer, and includes a storage storing information for controlling the platooning. The processor controls a host vehicle such that a hitch angle of the host vehicle with the trailer meets a predetermined reference angle, when it is necessary to perform braking control, and controls the host vehicle to perform the braking control.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method for allowing a user to monitor or control an autonomous vehicle after a drop-off of the user. The method for monitoring and controlling an autonomous vehicle according to an embodiment includes receiving user alighting information for an autonomous vehicle, identifying whether a destination is set for the autonomous vehicle, determining an operating mode of a user terminal as a monitoring mode or a controlling mode on the basis of whether the destination is set, and transmitting a driving state of the autonomous vehicle to the user terminal, or transmitting a control signal corresponding to user manipulation inputted to the user terminal to the autonomous vehicle, on the basis of the operating mode.

Abstract: A steering handle for a steering apparatus of a motor vehicle includes an end face which faces a user when the steering handle is in a position of use and a display element arranged on a side of the steering handle which faces away from the end face. A control device carries out a method by which a position of the steering handle is changed based on a driving mode set by a driver assistance device. The control device generates an adjustment signal to change between a position of use of the steering handle and a position of rest of the steering handle. When the steering handle is in a position of rest, a surface of the steering handle which faces away from the user when the steering handle is in the position of use instead faces the user.

Abstract: An offroad travel assistance system for a user vehicle includes one or more processors and a memory communicably coupled to the one or more processors and storing a user vehicle configuration evaluation module including computer-readable instructions that when executed by the one or more processors cause the one or more processors to determine if user vehicle configuration information describing the user vehicle is consistent with ride information similar to the user vehicle configuration information and describing a traversal of an offroad trail by a reference vehicle and, responsive to a determination that the user vehicle configuration information is not consistent with the ride information, autonomously control at least one portion of the user vehicle so as to prevent operation of the user vehicle to traverse the offroad trail.
