Abstract
Embodiments relate to the identification and mitigation of jamming attacks on autonomous vehicles. A technique includes determining that an object previously detected is no longer detected by a sensor of a vehicle. The technique includes, in response to the object previously detected no longer being detected by the sensor, determining that another sensor of the vehicle detects the object. The technique includes, in response to the object previously detected no longer being detected by the sensor, performing safety actions based on another sensor detecting the object.
Claims20
A computer-implemented method comprising:
- determining that an object previously detected is no longer detected by a sensor of a vehicle;
- determining a predicted trajectory for the object previously detected by the sensor;
- in response to the object previously detected by the sensor failing to have the predicted trajectory and in response to the object previously detected no longer being detected by the sensor, determining that another sensor of the vehicle detects the object;
- and
- in response to the object previously detected no longer being detected by the sensor, performing at least two safety actions based on the another sensor detecting the object, wherein the safety actions comprise performing a livestream, turning on emergency lights, honking a horn, or playing an audible warning external to the vehicle.
A system comprising:
- a memory having computer readable instructions;
- and
- one or more processors for executing the computer readable instructions, the computer readable instructions controlling the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
- determining that an object previously detected is no longer detected by a sensor of a vehicle;
- determining a predicted trajectory for the object previously detected by the sensor;
- in response to the object previously detected by the sensor failing to have the predicted trajectory and in response to the object previously detected no longer being detected by the sensor, determining that another sensor of the vehicle detects the object;
- and
- in response to the object previously detected no longer being detected by the sensor, performing at least two safety actions based on the another sensor detecting the object, wherein the safety actions comprise performing a livestream, turning on emergency lights, honking a horn, or playing an audible warning external to the vehicle.
A computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by one or more processors to cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
- determining that an object previously detected is no longer detected by a sensor of a vehicle;
- determining a predicted trajectory for the object previously detected by the sensor;
- in response to the object previously detected by the sensor failing to have the predicted trajectory and in response to the object previously detected no longer being detected by the sensor, determining that another sensor of the vehicle detects the object;
- and
- in response to the object previously detected no longer being detected by the sensor, performing at least two safety actions based on the another sensor detecting the object, wherein the safety actions comprise performing a livestream, turning on emergency lights, honking a horn, or playing an audible warning external to the vehicle.
