Abstract: A method for determining an articulation angle of a vehicle combination comprising a first vehicle section, such as a truck, and a second vehicle section, such as a trailer or dolly unit, which are connected via a first articulation joint, wherein the first vehicle section comprises an image obtaining device which is configured to obtain images of the second vehicle section during use, the method comprising obtaining a first image of the second vehicle section by the image obtaining device; mirroring the first image, thereby obtaining a second mirrored image; determining the articulation angle between the first and the second vehicle sections based on a required level of relative rotation of the first image and the second mirrored image until the first image and the second mirrored image match each other.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for adjusting a display view of a vision aid system (1) of a vehicle (10), the method comprising the following steps: —(S1) identifying a specific situation when the vision aid system should be utilized; —(S2) receiving a display view setting for the specific situation, wherein the display view setting is based on at least one previous display view setting from at least one other vision aid system of another vehicle which has experienced the specific situation, wherein the at least one previous display view setting relates to the specific situation; and —(S3) adjusting the display view of the vision aid system (1) in accordance with the received display view setting.

Abstract: A system for estimating an articulation angle between a first and a second connected vehicle section of an articulated vehicle combination, the system comprising a primary image obtaining device configured to be mounted on a first position of one of the vehicle sections and to obtain images of the other vehicle section during use; a secondary image obtaining device configured to be mounted on a second position of one of the vehicle sections and to obtain images of the other vehicle section during use, the second position being different from the first position, and/or a mounting orientation at the second position of the second image obtaining device being different from a mounting orientation at the first position of the primary image obtaining device.

Abstract: A control system for a trailer or dolly, wherein the trailer or dolly comprises a perception sensor which is directed in a first travelling direction of the trailer or dolly and a coupling member for coupling with a vehicle further ahead in the first travelling direction, wherein the control system is configured to provide and/or use data from the sensor for a first control mode when the trailer or dolly is not coupled to the vehicle via the coupling member and to provide and/or use data from the sensor for a second control mode different from the first control mode when the trailer or dolly is coupled to the vehicle via the coupling member.

Abstract: A system and method is provided for calibrating a portable vehicle sensor which is releasably mountable to a vehicle at least at a first and a second position on the vehicle, wherein the first and second positions are offset from each other. The system includes inputting means configured to receive position information relating to the second position when or after the portable vehicle sensor has been moved from the first position to the second position; calibration means configured to calibrate the position of the portable vehicle sensor with respect to the second position by use of the received position information.

Abstract: A vehicle is configured to perform the steps of: obtaining an indicator of a potential collision threat identified by an autonomous emergency braking system of the vehicle, wherein the autonomous emergency braking system of the vehicle comprises pre-defined control phases, and wherein the indicator at least partly determines a current control phase of the autonomous emergency braking system; and sending the obtained indicator to one or more following vehicles.

Abstract: An arrangement for determining a vehicle speed behaviour model for a leading vehicle, where the leading vehicle drives along a path in front of a trailing host vehicle and where the determination is done by a control unit in the host vehicle, where the host vehicle includes an arrangement for measuring the time gap to the leading vehicle, an arrangement for measuring the speed of the host vehicle, an arrangement for obtaining external information regarding an upcoming change in a road condition, where the control unit is adapted for monitoring the change in vehicle speed of the leading vehicle, and for determining a vehicle speed behaviour model for the leading vehicle based on the monitored change in vehicle speed of the leading vehicle. The vehicle speed behaviour of a leading vehicle can be used by the host vehicle to optimize the fuel consumption, the comfort and the safety of the host vehicle.

Abstract: A method of controlling inter-vehicle gap(s) in a platoon that includes a lead vehicle and one or more following vehicles includes the steps of: obtaining an indicator of a potential collision threat identified by an autonomous emergency braking system of the lead vehicle, wherein the autonomous emergency braking system of the lead vehicle includes pre-defined control phases, and wherein the indicator at least partly determines a current control phase of the autonomous emergency braking system; and sending the obtained indicator to the one or more following vehicles.
