Abstract
A future location of a movable object is predicted to intersect a planned path of a host vehicle. A host vehicle component is actuated to output a signal indicating to move the movable object. Then, at least one of the movable object is determined to have moved or the planned path of the host vehicle is updated. Then, the host vehicle is operated along the planned path or the updated planned path.
Claims20
A system, comprising a first computer including a processor and a memory, the memory storing instructions executable by the processor to:
- predict that a future location of a movable object and a planned path of a host vehicle will intersect;
- actuate a host vehicle component to output a signal indicating to move the movable object;
- then, at least one of (a) determine that the movable object has moved, or (b) update the planned path of the host vehicle;
- and
- then, operate the host vehicle along the planned path or the updated planned path.
