Patent number: 11884155Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for creating and presenting a graphical user interface for display of autonomous vehicle behaviors. The techniques include determining a trajectory of a vehicle operating in a real-world environment. Sensors of the vehicle obtain sensor data representing an object in the real-world environment. A maneuver of the vehicle to avoid a collision with the object is predicted based on the sensor data and the trajectory of the vehicle. It is determined that a passenger comfort level of a passenger riding in the vehicle will decrease based on the maneuver of the vehicle. The passenger comfort level is measured by passenger sensors of the vehicle. A graphical user interface is generated including representations of the vehicle, the object, and a graphic, text, or a symbol alerting the passenger of the predicted maneuver. The graphical user interface is transmitted to a display device of the vehicle.Type: GrantFiled: August 31, 2022Date of Patent: January 30, 2024Assignee: Motional AD LLCInventor: Ayman Alalao

Patent number: 11775148Abstract: Among other things, techniques are described for monitoring and controlling autonomous vehicles (AVs). As an example, at least one processor determines that a first AV is in a field of view of a user wearing an augmented reality display device, determines first data regarding an operation of the first AV, and causes at least a portion of the first data to be presented to the user using the augmented reality display device. For example, a graphical user interface is presented in the field of view of the user using the augmented reality display device, and at least the portion of the first data is included on the graphical user interface, such that at least the portion of the first data appears to be arranged spatially proximal to the first AV in the field of view of the user.Type: GrantFiled: November 6, 2020Date of Patent: October 3, 2023Assignee: Motional AD LLCInventors: Shaurya Agarwal, Ayman Alalao, Tyler Hendrickson

Publication number: 20220198842Abstract: Among other things, techniques are described for predicting the health of vehicle components. The techniques include collecting, using a set of sensors of a vehicle, first sensor data related to a set of events over a period of time, and collecting, using the set of sensors, second sensor data associated with an acute event after the period of time. Using a processor, a health of a component of the vehicle is determined based on the first sensor data and the second sensor data and a correlation between the first and second sensor data and the component of the vehicle. The vehicle is navigated using a control circuit of the vehicle in response to a determination that the health of the component does not meet a predefined threshold.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 18, 2020Publication date: June 23, 2022Inventors: Shaurya Agarwal, Ayman Alalao, Tyler Hendrickson
