Abstract
Systems and method are provided for controlling an autonomous vehicle. In one embodiment, a method includes: receiving, by a processor, sensor data associated with an environment of a first autonomous vehicle; determining, by a processor, lane health information based on the sensor data; and selectively controlling, by a processor, a second autonomous vehicle based on the lane health information.
Claims20
A method of controlling an autonomous vehicle, comprising:
- receiving, by a processor, sensor data associated with an environment of a first autonomous vehicle;
- determining, by a processor, lane health information based on the sensor data;
- and
- selectively controlling, by a processor, a second autonomous vehicle based on the lane health information.
1 more element
A system for controlling an autonomous vehicle, comprising:
- a first non-transitory module that, by a processor, receives sensor data associated with an environment of a first autonomous vehicle;
- a second non-transitory module that, by a processor, determines lane health information based on the sensor data;
- and
- a third non-transitory module that, by a processor, selectively controls a second autonomous vehicle based on the lane health information.
1 more element
An autonomous vehicle, comprising:
- at least one of a camera, a lidar, and a radar that senses an environment of the autonomous vehicle and that generates sensor data;
- and
- a controller that, by a processor, receives the sensor data, determines lane health information based on the sensor data, and communicates the lane health information to a remote location for selectively controlling a second autonomous vehicle based on the lane health information.
