Abstract
Systems and methods for characterizing a driving style of an autonomous vehicle are presented. A system may include one or more sensors configured to collect information concerning driving characteristics; a memory containing computer-readable instructions for evaluating the driving characteristics for a pattern(s) correlatable with a driving style of the autonomous vehicle and for characterizing aspects of driving style based on the one or more patterns; and a processor configured to evaluate the driving characteristics for the one or more patterns correlatable with the driving style, and characterize aspects of the driving style based on the pattern(s). Corresponding methods and non-transitory media are disclosed.
Claims20
A system, comprising:
- one or more sensors configured to collect information of an autonomous vehicle;
- a memory containing computer-readable instructions for evaluating the information of the autonomous vehicle for one or more patterns;
- and
- a processor configured to:
- characterize aspects of a driving style of the autonomous vehicle based on the one or more patterns, and
- automatically generate a warning communicable to a nearby vehicle based on a preferred driving experience associated with the nearby vehicle.
A method comprising:
- collecting information associated with operation of an autonomous vehicle;
- characterizing aspects of a driving style of the autonomous vehicle based on one or more patterns of the information associated with the operation of the autonomous vehicle;
- and
- automatically generating a warning communicable to a human operating a nearby vehicle based on a preferred driving experience of the human operating associated with the nearby vehicle.
A non-transitory machine readable medium storing instructions that, when executed on a computing device, cause the computing device to perform a method, the method comprising:
- collecting information associated with operation of an autonomous vehicle;
- characterizing aspects of a driving style of the autonomous vehicle based on one or more patterns of the information associated with the operation of the autonomous vehicle;
- and
- automatically generating a warning communicable to a human operating a nearby vehicle based on a preferred driving experience of the human operating associated with the nearby vehicle.
