  • Patent number: 12233888
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for controlling a control system of a vehicle having a first driver support module (e.g. ADAS feature) and a second driver support module (e.g. “under-development” ADS feature). The first driver support module and the second driver support module are capable of operation within an overlapping operational design domain (ODD). The method includes obtaining sensor data including information about a surrounding environment of the vehicle and determining fulfilment of the overlapping ODD based on the obtained sensor data. Further, if the overlapping ODD is fulfilled, the method includes switching between a first configuration where the first driver support module is active and the second driver support module is inactive, and a second configuration where the first driver support module is inactive and the second driver support module is active.

  • Patent number: 11670091
    Abstract: Described herein is a method of determining a current location speed limit in a road vehicle (1) speed limit information system (20). The method comprises receiving (6): one or more signals corresponding to respective candidate speed limits (7); and one or more signals related to observed vehicle dynamics affecting changes (8) in one or more vehicles (1, 5) pre and post a most recently passed anticipated speed limit change location (2). It further comprises evaluating (9) the confidence of the different candidate speed limits (7) based on the signals related to observed vehicle dynamics affecting changes (8) and validating (10a) or discarding (10b) candidate speed limits (7) based on the evaluated confidences. A signal (13) corresponding to a highest confidence validated speed limit is output.
