METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR DETERMINING A LIKELIHOOD OF AUTONOMOUS CONTROL OF A VEHICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17529577 titled 'METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR DETERMINING A LIKELIHOOD OF AUTONOMOUS CONTROL OF A VEHICLE
Simplified Explanation
Abstract
The patent application describes methods and systems for determining the likelihood that a vehicle is being controlled autonomously. The method involves receiving a request for an autonomous operation score of the vehicle, obtaining permissions to access observation data from various sources, and generating a vehicle observation profile based on this data. The method further includes determining if the vehicle observation profile matches certain reference patterns, generating an autonomous control score based on this determination, and providing the score to a user.
Bullet Points
- The patent application is about determining if a vehicle is being controlled autonomously.
- The method involves receiving a request for an autonomous operation score of the vehicle.
- Observation data from various sources is obtained and used to generate a vehicle observation profile.
- The vehicle observation profile is compared to reference patterns to determine if the vehicle is under autonomous control.
- An autonomous control score is generated based on the determination and provided to the user.
Potential Applications
- Autonomous vehicle monitoring and verification systems.
- Insurance companies could use this technology to determine if a vehicle was being controlled autonomously during an accident.
- Fleet management companies could use this technology to monitor the autonomous operation of their vehicles.
Problems Solved
- Provides a method to determine if a vehicle is being controlled autonomously.
- Allows for verification and monitoring of autonomous vehicle operations.
- Helps in assessing the level of autonomy in a vehicle.
Benefits
- Enables better understanding and analysis of autonomous vehicle operations.
- Provides a score that indicates the likelihood of a vehicle being under autonomous control.
- Can be used for insurance purposes, fleet management, and other applications related to autonomous vehicles.
Original Abstract Submitted
Disclosed are methods and systems for determining the likelihood that a vehicle is under autonomous control. For instance, a method may include receiving a request for an autonomous operation score of the vehicle; obtaining one or more permissions to access observation data from one or more sources; and generating a vehicle observation profile based on the observation data from the one or more sources. The method may further include determining whether the vehicle observation profile is indicative of one or more reference patterns; generating an autonomous control score based on the determination that the vehicle observation profile is indicative of the one or more reference patterns; and providing the autonomous operation score to a user.
