Abstract: According to one aspect, a method includes identifying a machine arranged to be monitored using teleoperations, and obtaining a first request from a first teleoperations arrangement to monitor the machine. The first teleoperations arrangement includes a first teleoperations equipment. The method also includes determining whether to accept the first request from the first teleoperations arrangement, wherein determining whether to accept the first request from the first teleoperations arrangement includes verifying that a first operator of the first teleoperations equipment is certified by the platform and verifying that the teleoperations equipment meets a standard. The first request is accepted when it is determined that the request is to be accepted, wherein accepting the first request includes assigning the first teleoperations arrangement to monitor the machine during a first shift. Finally, the method includes monitoring the first teleoperations arrangement and the machine during the first shift.

Abstract: Collision filtering for autonomous vehicle simulations is disclosed herein. A simulation system can be configured to identify a simulated collision involving a simulated autonomous vehicle and a simulated agent representing an obstacle with which the simulated autonomous vehicle may collide. For example, the simulated collision can be simulated based on logged data from a real-world autonomous vehicle. The simulation system can classify the simulated collision as unrealistic or realistic. For example, classification can involve considering a nature of the simulated agent (including, e.g., whether the simulated agent is a drivable obstacle), a nature of the collision, whether the collision is avoidable through an evasive maneuver, whether the collision is similar to a known false positive, and/or input from a human operator.
