Abstract
An apparatus of a vehicle may comprise one or more processors, and a memory storing one or more programs that, when executed by the one or more processors communicating with the memory, are configured to cause the apparatus to estimate, based on driving information about the vehicle, a pitch rate, determine, based on the pitch rate, a type of a pothole, transmit pothole notification information indicating the type of the pothole, receive second pothole notification information indicating a type of a second pothole, and control, based on map information updated by the second pothole notification information, a driving operation of the vehicle.
Claims20
An apparatus of a vehicle, the apparatus comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- a memory storing one or more programs that, when executed by the one or more processors communicating with the memory, are configured to cause the apparatus to:
- estimate, based on driving information about the vehicle, a pitch rate,
- determine, based on the pitch rate, a type of a pothole,
- transmit pothole notification information indicating the type of the pothole,
- receive second pothole notification information indicating a type of a second pothole, and
- control, based on map information updated by the second pothole notification information, a driving operation of the vehicle.
A method performed by an apparatus of a vehicle, the method comprising:
- estimating, based on driving information about the vehicle, a pitch rate;
- determining, based on the pitch rate, a type of a pothole;
- transmitting pothole notification information indicating the type of the pothole;
- receiving second pothole notification information indicating a type of a second pothole;
- and
- controlling, based on map information updated by the second pothole notification information, a driving operation of the vehicle.
An apparatus of a vehicle, the apparatus comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory storing at least one instruction that, when executed by the processor communicating with the memory, is configured to cause the apparatus to:
- receive sensor data associated with the vehicle;
- estimate, based on the sensor data, a pitch rate of the vehicle;
- detect a road surface anomaly based on the estimated pitch rate;
- classify the road surface anomaly as one of a plurality of pothole types;
- transmit a first signal indicating the one of the plurality of pothole types;
- receive a second signal indicating a pothole type of at least one pothole;
- and
- control, based on the second signal, autonomous driving of the vehicle.
