Abstract: In some examples, a system may receive location information. The system may determine at least one landmark based on the location information. In addition, the system may determine one or more current conditions for the at least one landmark. Further, the system may receive sensor configuration information. Based on the sensor configuration information and the one or more current conditions, the system may determine the detectability of the at least one landmark.

Abstract: In some examples, a vehicle suspension for supporting, at least in part, a sprung mass, includes a damper connected to the sprung mass, the damper including a movable piston. The vehicle suspension further includes an actuator and a controller. The controller may be configured to determine a frequency of motion associated with the sprung mass. When the frequency of motion is below a first frequency threshold, the controller may send a control signal to cause the actuator to apply a deceleration force to the sprung mass. Further, when the frequency of motion associated with the sprung mass exceeds the first frequency threshold, the controller may send a control signal to cause the actuator to apply a compensatory force to the sprung mass. For instance, a magnitude of the compensatory force may be based on a friction force determined for the damper.

Abstract: To localize a vehicle in the given map precisely for autonomous driving, the vehicle needs to compare the sensor perceived environment with the map information accurately. To achieve this, the vehicle may use information received from multiple on-board sensors in combination of GPS and map data. Example implementations described herein are directed to maintaining accuracy of sensor measurements for autonomous vehicles even during sensor failure through a raw data fusion technique and a repopulation of data through a prediction technique based on historical information and statistical method if any of the sensors fail.
