Mass distribution-informed optimization for autonomous driving systems

A system comprising:

• a memory device;
• and
• a processing device, coupled to the memory device, wherein the processing device is to:
• identify suspension stiffness data associated with corresponding distal ends of one or more axles of an autonomous vehicle (AV);
• identify sensor data associated with the corresponding distal ends of the one or more axles of the AV prior to traveling at least a portion of a route, wherein at least a portion of the sensor data is associated with the AV performing one or more predefined maneuvers associated with at least one of acceleration or deceleration of the AV, the sensor data comprising suspension deflection data;
• determine, based on the suspension deflection data and the suspension stiffness data prior to the traveling of the at least a portion of a route, mass distribution data of the AV, wherein the mass distribution data is associated with a first load proximate a first distal end of a first axle of the AV and a second load proximate a second distal end of the first axle of the AV, and wherein the mass distribution data is associated with a response of the AV to the one or more predefined maneuvers;
• determine, based on the mass distribution data, driving constraint data for travelling the at least a portion of a route;
• and
• cause, based on the driving constraint data, performance of a corrective action associated with the AV during the traveling of the at least a portion of a route.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by a processing device, cause the processing device to:

• identify suspension stiffness data associated with corresponding distal ends of one or more axles of an autonomous vehicle (AV);
• identify sensor data associated with the corresponding distal ends of the one or more axles of the AV prior to traveling at least a portion of a route, wherein at least a portion of the sensor data is associated with the AV performing one or more predefined maneuvers associated with at least one of acceleration or deceleration of the AV, the sensor data comprising suspension deflection data;
• determine, based on the suspension deflection data and the suspension stiffness data prior to the traveling of the at least a portion of a route, mass distribution data of the AV, wherein the mass distribution data is associated with a first load proximate a first distal end of a first axle of the AV and a second load proximate a second distal end of the first axle of the AV, and wherein the mass distribution data is associated with a response of the AV to the one or more predefined maneuvers;
• determine, based on the mass distribution data, driving constraint data for travelling the at least a portion of a route;
• and
• cause, based on the driving constraint data, performance of a corrective action associated with the AV during the traveling of the at least a portion of a route.
