  • Publication number: 20230386227
    Abstract: Vehicle occupant anomaly detection is provided. A system can receive sensor data from sensors associated with a vehicle, the sensors including an imaging sensor and the sensor data including 3D point representations of a vehicle occupant. The system can extract a time-series features of the vehicle occupant from the 3D point representations. The system can execute a machine learning model using the time-series features to determine at least one condition of the vehicle occupant. The system can, responsive to the condition, generate an instruction to cause the vehicle to perform a navigational action.

  • Patent number: 10538268
    Abstract: A computer in a vehicle is programmed to instruct a steering system of the vehicle to perform a lateral steering action depending on whether a steering-wheel angle is greater than a threshold angle, and to determine and apply an amount of torque to a steering wheel based on comparing the steering-wheel angle to the threshold angle.

  • Patent number: 10259496
    Abstract: A computer in a vehicle is programmed to change a steering angle of the vehicle and rotate a steering wheel of the vehicle to a steering-wheel angle based on the steering angle at a preset future time and a determined ratio of the steering-wheel angle to the steering angle. The determined ratio varies based at least on vehicle speed.
