Patrick Pascheka has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 10557935
    Abstract: A state of a vehicle, including a sensor for sensing another vehicle, is defined by determining a speed of the vehicle and determining the state in accordance with the sensing range of the sensor and the speed.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 13, 2015
    Date of Patent: February 11, 2020
    Assignee: Volkswagen AG
    Inventor: Patrick Pascheka
  • Patent number: 10386855
    Abstract: A method for the decentralized coordination of driving maneuvers of at least two motorized transportation vehicles. A planned trajectory and a desired trajectory are transferred from a first motorized transportation vehicle to a second motorized transportation vehicle. In the second motorized transportation vehicle, a planned trajectory of the second motorized transportation vehicle is compared with the desired trajectory of the first motorized transportation vehicle. The planned trajectory of the second motorized transportation vehicle is adapted in response to satisfaction of adaptation criterion. The planned and desired trajectories of the first motorized transportation vehicle are combined with a strategic trajectory of the first motorized transportation vehicle. The planned trajectory and a desired trajectory of the second motorized transportation vehicle are combined with a strategic trajectory of the second motorized transportation vehicle.

  • Patent number: 9878714
    Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods for accelerating a vehicle in the case of a line start at a traffic light system can include determining a likelihood of a predefined vehicle being able to pass through the traffic light system during a current or imminent green phase, accelerating the vehicle in accordance with a signal from an electronic towbar system if the likelihood is higher than a predefined threshold value, and accelerating the vehicle to a lesser extent if the likelihood is lower than the predefined threshold value.

  • Patent number: 9421971
    Abstract: A driver assistance system of a vehicle for controlling a distance from the vehicle to a further vehicle. In the method, a distance between the vehicle and the further vehicle and a relative speed between the vehicle and the further vehicle are determined. When the vehicle approaches the further vehicle, the vehicle is operated in an operational state from a group of a plurality of predetermined operational states in dependence upon the distance and the relative speed.
