  • Patent number: 11220251
    Abstract: A method of identifying a fault in a friction brake actuated by hydraulic brake pressure and configured to decelerate a vehicle road wheel includes detecting, via a first sensor, a vibration at the road wheel and communicating data indicative of the detected vibration to a controller. The method additionally includes detecting, via a second sensor, upon application of the hydraulic brake pressure, a hydraulic brake pressure variation and communicating data indicative of the detected hydraulic brake pressure variation. The method additionally includes comparing, via the controller, the data indicative of the detected vibration with a threshold vibration value and the data indicative of the detected hydraulic brake pressure variation with a threshold hydraulic brake pressure value.

  • Publication number: 20210293549
    Abstract: The present application discloses to a method for detecting map quality, an electronic device and a storage medium, and relates to the automatic driving field. The implementation solution is acquiring a map to be detected; acquiring traffic indication information marked on the map; acquiring actual road test data of each detection area on the map; acquiring a vehicle driving behavior of each detection area according to the actual road test data of each detection area; and generating a detection result of the map according to the traffic indication information and the vehicle driving behavior corresponding to each detection area. Thus, automatic detection of the map can be realized by the traffic indication information marked on the map and the vehicle driving behavior corresponding to each detection area, and the detection efficiency and the detection accuracy of high definition map can be improved.

  • Patent number: 10800363
    Abstract: A system includes control modules, a low-voltage communications bus, e.g., a CAN bus of a vehicle, a voltage sensor that measures a bus voltage and outputs 2.5-3.5 VDC high-data and 1.5-2.5 VDC low-data, and a host electronic control unit (ECU). The host ECU detects a recoverable fault using a data pattern in the bus voltage data when the data is outside of a calibrated range, and recalibrates the sensor. Recalibration may be by adjustment to a scaling factor and/or a bias value. Non-recoverable “stuck-at-fault”-type or “out-of-range”-type faults may be detected using the pattern, as may be a ground offset fault. A method includes measuring the bus voltage using the sensor, comparing the output data to a range to detect the fault, and isolating a sensor fault as a recoverable fault using the data pattern when the data is outside of the range. The sensor is then be recalibrated.
