Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure set forth a computer-implemented method comprising receiving, from at least one sensor, sensor data associated with an environment, generating, based on the sensor data, a set of lane change data values associated with positions of at least two vehicles relative to a first lane position in the environment, determining, based on the set of lane change data values, a collision risk value associated with the at least two vehicles attempting to occupy the first lane position, and generating, based on the collision risk value, an output signal to a first vehicle included in the at least two vehicles.
Claims20
A computer-implemented method comprising:
- receiving, from at least one sensor, sensor data associated with an environment;
- generating, based on the sensor data, a set of lane change data values associated with positions of at least two vehicles relative to a first lane position in the environment;
- determining, based on the set of lane change data values, a collision risk value associated with the at least two vehicles attempting to occupy the first lane position;
- and
- generating, based on the collision risk value, an output signal to a first vehicle included in the at least two vehicles.
One or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform the steps of:
- receiving, from at least one sensor, sensor data associated with an environment;
- determining a first lane position in the environment in which at least one vehicle can occupy;
- generating, based on the sensor data, a set of lane change data values associated with positions of at least two vehicles relative to the first lane position;
- determining, based on the set of lane change data values, a collision risk value associated with the at least two vehicles attempting to occupy the first lane position;
- and
- generating, based on the collision risk value, an output signal to a first vehicle included in the at least two vehicles.
A collision avoidance system comprising:
- one or more memories storing a collision avoidance application;
- and
- one or more processors coupled to the one or more memories, and, when executing the collision avoidance application, are configured to:
- receive, from at least one sensor, sensor data associated with an environment, generate, based on the sensor data, a set of lane change data values that includes:
- a first lane change data value associated with a first vehicle attempting to occupy a first lane position in the environment, and
- a second lane change data value associated with a second vehicle attempting to occupy the first lane position,
- determine, based on the set of lane change data values, a collision risk value associated with both the first vehicle and the second vehicle attempting to occupy the first lane position, and
- generate, based on the collision risk value, an output signal to the first vehicle.
