AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE, CONTROL SYSTEM FOR REMOTELY CONTROLLING THE SAME, AND METHOD THEREOF - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17879533 titled 'AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE, CONTROL SYSTEM FOR REMOTELY CONTROLLING THE SAME, AND METHOD THEREOF

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an autonomous vehicle control system that can search for and request help from external individuals when needed. The system includes a processor that can locate an external person near the autonomous vehicle and send a request for help through the person's user terminal or an external notification from the vehicle.

  • The control system is designed to assist autonomous vehicles in situations where human intervention or assistance is required.
  • The processor of the control system is capable of searching for external individuals who can provide help to the autonomous vehicle.
  • The system can send a request for help to the located external person through their user terminal or through an external notification from the vehicle.
  • The technology enables autonomous vehicles to seek assistance from nearby individuals, improving their ability to handle unexpected situations or emergencies.

Potential Applications

  • Autonomous vehicles can use this technology to request help from nearby pedestrians or drivers in case of accidents, breakdowns, or other emergencies.
  • Delivery robots or drones can utilize the control system to seek assistance from people in delivering packages to specific locations or navigating complex environments.
  • The technology can be applied in public transportation systems to allow autonomous buses or shuttles to request help from passengers or station personnel when needed.

Problems Solved

  • The control system addresses the challenge of autonomous vehicles encountering situations where human intervention or assistance is necessary.
  • It solves the problem of autonomous vehicles being limited in their ability to handle unexpected or complex situations without human involvement.
  • The technology provides a solution for autonomous vehicles to quickly and efficiently request help from nearby individuals, improving their overall safety and reliability.

Benefits

  • The control system enhances the safety and reliability of autonomous vehicles by enabling them to seek assistance from external individuals when necessary.
  • It improves the ability of autonomous vehicles to handle unexpected situations or emergencies by leveraging the help of nearby people.
  • The technology increases the overall efficiency of autonomous vehicles by allowing them to quickly request and receive assistance, minimizing downtime and delays.


Original Abstract Submitted

An autonomous vehicle, a control system for remotely controlling the same, and a method thereof provides a control system including a processor configured to search for an external person around an autonomous vehicle when receiving a request for help of the external person from the autonomous vehicle, and to request the help of the external person through a user terminal of the searched external person or an external notification of the autonomous vehicle.
