Patent number: 11755008Abstract: An apparatus for traversing a vehicle transportation network by an autonomous vehicle (AV) includes a human-autonomy teaming manager. The manager includes a first processor configured to initiate a dialogue associated with a predefined dynamic task sequence that is responsive to a condition experienced by the AV while traversing from a starting location to an ending location within the vehicle transportation network. The sequence is one of a plurality of predefined dynamic task sequences that uses multiple agents to resolve the condition. The manager receives, from an interface accessible to a human agent, an input responsive to the dialogue. The input confirms the sequence as a selected predefined dynamic task sequence or selects an other of the plurality of predefined dynamic task sequences as the selected predefined dynamic task sequence. The manager delegates tasks of the selected predefined dynamic task sequence to resolve the condition.Type: GrantFiled: January 31, 2020Date of Patent: September 12, 2023Assignees: Nissan North America, Inc., Renault S.A.S.Inventors: Laura Cesafsky, Astha Vagadia, Hillary Abraham, Sparsh Sharma, Stefan Witwicki, Najamuddin Mirza Baig, Omar Bentahar

Publication number: 20230282112Abstract: An intersection collision avoidance system determines, for an ego vehicle, a direction indicated by its turn signal, its destination setting, or both, generates, where the direction is determined, a possible intended path relative to an intersection using a high-definition (HD) map and the direction, and generates, where the destination setting is determined, a possible intended path for using the HD map and the destination setting. Where the direction and the destination setting are both determined, the direction indicated by the turn signal is compared to the possible intended path generated using the destination setting, and one of the possible intended paths is selected based on the comparison. The system transmits, to a conflict detection module, a set of drive goals for the ego vehicle relative to the intersection that conforms to the intended path. The module can determine a possible collision with another road user using the drive goals.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 29, 2022Publication date: September 7, 2023Inventors: Viju James, Liam Pedersen, Fang-Chieh Chou, Najamuddin Mirza Baig, Simon Tien
