Publication number: 20230322265Abstract: A novel roof-top autonomous vehicle control system for converting a non-autonomous vehicle into an autonomous vehicle includes a weatherproof housing that removably attaches to the roof of a host vehicle. The housing supports modular attachment of various sensors, receivers, computers, and other electrical components that can be installed, removed, and/or interchanged without disrupting the initial calibration thereof. In a particular embodiment, various internal electrical components of the system are mounted on a tray which can be mounted in, and removed from, the housing without disrupting the initial calibration of the various sensors. In a more particular embodiment, the housing includes a plurality of removable panels and windows that provide access to the inside of the housing.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 9, 2023Publication date: October 12, 2023Applicant: Ridecell, Inc.Inventors: Matthew Francis Anderson, Richard Huy Ho
