Publication number: 20240034309Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for navigating a host vehicle. In one implementation, at least one processor may be programmed to receive an image captured by a camera; identify an oncoming target vehicle; determine that a planned trajectory for the host vehicle includes a turn that crosses a projected trajectory of the oncoming target vehicle in a potential turn-across-path event; determine a driving jurisdiction associated with the road; determine, based on the driving jurisdiction, whether the target vehicle is approaching a road feature that negates the potential turn-across-path event; and either implement or forego implementing a remedial action based on whether the target vehicle is approaching a road feature that negates the potential turn-across-path event.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 5, 2023Publication date: February 1, 2024Inventors: OFER FINELT, Tomer Baba

Publication number: 20230296382Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for vehicle navigation. In one implementation, a navigation system for a host vehicle may include at least one processor programmed to receive from a camera onboard the host vehicle at least one captured image representative of an environment of the vehicle; detect a pedestrian represented in the at least one captured image; analyze the at least one captured image to determine an indicator of angular rotation and an indicator of pitch angle associated with a head of the pedestrian represented in the at least one captured image; and cause at least one navigational action by the host vehicle based on the indicator of angular rotation and the indicator of pitch angle associated with the head of a pedestrian.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 19, 2023Publication date: September 21, 2023Inventors: Lior Regev, Tomer Baba, Ariel Benou, David Aloni, Dmitry Kirzhner, Jack Kario

Patent number: 11679760Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for navigating a host vehicle. In one implementation, at least one processor may be programmed to receive images representative of an environment of the host vehicle; identify an oncoming target vehicle associated with a projected trajectory indicated by an aspect of the oncoming target vehicle in the images; determine that a planned trajectory for the host vehicle crosses the projected trajectory of the oncoming target vehicle and indicates a potential turn-across-path event; determine a remedial action for the host vehicle in response to the oncoming target vehicle and the potential turn-across-path event; implement the remedial action if the oncoming target vehicle is determined to be not approaching a road feature that negates the potential turn-across-path event; and forego the remedial action if the oncoming target vehicle is determined to be approaching a road feature that negates the potential turn-across-path event.Type: GrantFiled: December 10, 2019Date of Patent: June 20, 2023Assignee: Mobileye Vision Technologies Ltd.Inventors: Ofer Finelt, Tomer Baba

Patent number: 11620837Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for augmenting upright object detection. In one implementation, a system for augmenting detection of objects in an environment of a vehicle may include at least one processing device. The at least one processing device may be programmed to: receive, from an image capture device, a first image frame, the first image frame including an attention area associated with a suspected upright object indication; warp, using a level road plane model, an area in a second earlier image frame that corresponds to the attention area; track a plurality of image patches across the warped area and the attention area; compute a road plane model fit to the tracked image patches; and determine whether to suppress the upright object indication based on the tracked image patches being more consistent with a road plane model than with an upright object model.Type: GrantFiled: October 28, 2020Date of Patent: April 4, 2023Assignee: MOBILEYE VISION TECHNOLOGIES LTD.Inventors: Jack Kario, Tomer Baba, Erez Dagan

Patent number: 11216675Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for detecting an object in front of a vehicle. In one implementation, an object detecting system includes an image capture device configured to acquire a plurality of images of an area, a data interface, and a processing device programmed to compare a first image to a second image to determine displacement vectors between pixels, to search for a region of coherent expansion that is a set of pixels in at least one of the first image and the second image, for which there exists a common focus of expansion and a common scale magnitude such that the set of pixels satisfy a relationship between pixel positions, displacement vectors, the common focus of expansion, and the common scale magnitude, and to identify presence of a substantially upright object based on the set of pixels.Type: GrantFiled: October 28, 2020Date of Patent: January 4, 2022Assignee: Mobileye Vision Technologies Ltd.Inventors: Amnon Shashua, Erez Dagan, Tomer Baba, Yoni Myers, Yossi Hollander

Patent number: 11148664Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for navigating a host vehicle. In one implementation, at least one processor may be programmed to obtain images representative of an environment of a host vehicle; identify, from the images, a feature of a roadway used to navigate the host vehicle on a path, the identified feature of the roadway having an ambiguity along the path; obtain map data associated with the environment to resolve the ambiguity of the identified feature; and generate a trajectory to navigate the host vehicle on the roadway, using the map data associated with the environment.Type: GrantFiled: December 18, 2020Date of Patent: October 19, 2021Assignee: MOBILEYE VISION TECHNOLOGIES LTD.Inventors: Ofer Finelt, Tomer Baba
