  • Publication number: 20230332910
    Abstract: A method, system and product for implementing user-based ethical decision making in autonomous vehicles. The system includes an ethical investigator that presents an ethical questioner to an entity and collects the entity's responses. An ethical synthesizer synthesizes an ethical preference of the entity based on the collected responses. An ethical determinator selects an action from a plurality of potential actions based on an ethical preference of a controlling entity of a self-driving vehicle at a time the selection is made. The system is configured to cause the self-driving vehicle to perform the action selected by said ethical determinator automatically and without relying on user input.

  • Patent number: 11409903
    Abstract: Method, system and product for performing private and non-private tasks in Augmented Reality (AR) systems. A privacy policy of a user using an AR device is obtained. A frame sensor is utilized to obtain frames for processing. An overlay display for the frame is generated. The overlay display is generated based on an execution of a non-private task on a non-trusted device and based on an execution of a private task on a trusted device. The private task and the non-private task are determined based on the privacy policy. The overlay display is displayed by an AR device.

  • Patent number: 11105645
    Abstract: System, method and product for vehicle navigation. A method comprising obtaining a location of a vehicle and obtaining a data about the passenger in the vehicle. Based on the data, a constraint on a driving route of the vehicle is determined. The constraint is characterized in extending the driving route so as to extend a driving time to the destination to be longer than a minimal driving time from the location to the destination. A driving plan is generated based on the constraint, wherein the driving plan defining a route from the location to the destination, whereby the vehicle can be driven according to the driving plan.
