Publication number: 20220410882Abstract: A vehicle includes a system and method of navigating the vehicle. The system includes a sensor and a processor. The sensor captures an image of a roadway. The processor focuses the sensor at a road segment selected from a plurality of road segments of the roadway using a machine learning program based on a risk of the road segment. The machine learning program is trained to focus the sensor by calculating the risk for each of the plurality of road segments of the roadway based on a hazard probability associated with each road segment and an occupancy probability associated with each road segment, selecting the road segment from the plurality of road segments based on the risk associated with the road segment, and determining a reduction in the risk for a road risk model of the roadway due to selecting the road segment.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 28, 2021Publication date: December 29, 2022Inventors: Lawrence Andrew Bush, Prabhjot Kaur

Patent number: 11198418Abstract: A control system for a subject vehicle includes an autonomous braking system, a forward monitoring sensor and a rearward monitoring sensor. The controller monitors a first speed of a first vehicle travelling in front of the subject vehicle and a second speed of a second vehicle travelling to the rear of the subject vehicle. A first gap-closing time is determined based upon the speed of the subject vehicle and the first speed of the first vehicle. A second gap-closing time is determined based upon the speed of the subject vehicle and the second speed of the second vehicle. The controller controls the speed of the subject vehicle based upon the first gap-closing time and the second gap-closing time when one of the first gap-closing time or the second gap-closing time is less than a first threshold time.Type: GrantFiled: November 19, 2019Date of Patent: December 14, 2021Assignee: GM Global Technology Operations LLCInventors: Lawrence A. Bush, Zachariah E. Tyree, Prabhjot Kaur
