  • Publication number: 20190212747
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for aligning a vehicle to roadway lane markers includes measuring at least one of a first distance between the vehicle and lane markers for the roadway and a second distance between the vehicle and a recognizable object proximate to the roadway. The location of the vehicle is determined from a satellite navigation system receiver. This location is combined with the first and/or second distances to provide a localization of the vehicle on a high definition (“HD”) map of the roadway. A steering correction signal is generated in response to the comparison of the first distance to the localization of the vehicle on the HD map. The method further includes providing the steering correction signal to an electronic steering controller, wherein the electronic steering controller causes a vehicle steering mechanism to change the position of the vehicle in the roadway lane.

  • Patent number: 10196089
    Abstract: A method of controlling a backing system for a vehicle and trailer assembly comprises initiating a backing system mode with an electronic control unit (ECU) for the backing system when a start system input is received from a control device. At least one input is received by the ECU from the control device which includes information about a desired vehicle action. The ECU interprets from the at least one input the desired vehicle action and calculates a required vehicle response to achieve the desired vehicle action. The ECU then sends a request to at least one vehicle system to perform the calculated vehicle response.

  • Patent number: 10032373
    Abstract: An autonomous vehicle includes a vehicle body, a drive mechanism configured to propel the vehicle body, a location module, a communication interface in communication with a traffic control system, and a processing unit in communication with the drive mechanism, the location module, and the communication interface. The processing unit is configured to receive, via the communication interface, a route of a prioritized vehicle and determine, in conjunction with the location module, whether a route of the autonomous vehicle intersects the route of the prioritized vehicle. The processing unit is configured to adjust, using the drive mechanism, one or more of a direction or a speed of the autonomous vehicle based on the determination.

  • Patent number: 9938688
    Abstract: An excavation system is disclosed for use with a mobile machine having a work tool. The excavation system may have a speed sensor configured to generate a first signal indicative of a travel speed of the mobile machine, and at least one load sensor configured to generate a second signal indicative of loading of the work tool. The excavation system may also have a controller configured to record values of the first signal during travel of the mobile machine toward a material, and to detect engagement of the work tool with the material based on the second signal. After engagement of the work tool with the material is detected, the controller may be further configured to determine an edge location of the material passed through by the work tool based on values of the first signal recorded prior to engagement detection of the work tool with the material.

  • Patent number: 9903100
    Abstract: An excavation system is disclosed as having first and second actuators configured to move a work tool in first and second directions. The second actuator may only be capable of full-range movement when the first actuator is positioned within a sub-range. The excavation system may also have first and second sensors configured to generate first and second signals indicative of first and second actuator movements, and a controller in communication with the first and second sensors. The controller may be configured to command movement of the first actuator to the sub-range, to confirm that the first actuator has moved to the sub-range based on the first signal, to command movement of the second actuator to an end-of-stroke position after the first actuator is confirmed to be within the sub-range, and to selectively record a current position of the second actuator as the end-of-stroke position based on the second signal.
