AUTONOMOUS DRIVING SYSTEM AND AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
- This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18311719 Titled 'AUTONOMOUS DRIVING SYSTEM AND AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE'
Simplified Explanation
This abstract describes an autonomous driving system that consists of multiple sensor combinations and edge nodes. Each sensor combination includes at least one sensor, and each edge node corresponds to a specific sensor combination. The first edge node is responsible for determining perception information about a vehicle based on data collected by its corresponding sensor combination. A central node is connected to all the edge nodes and delegates a state decision function to the first edge node. This allows the first edge node to determine whether the vehicle is in a specific state and decide on the appropriate driving policy for that state.
Original Abstract Submitted
An autonomous driving system includes a plurality of sensor combinations and a plurality of edge nodes, each of the plurality of sensor combinations includes at least one sensor; the plurality of edge nodes are in a one-to-one correspondence with the plurality of sensor combinations; and a first edge node in the plurality of edge nodes is configured to determine first perception information of a vehicle based on data collected by a first sensor combination corresponding to the first edge node. A central node is connected to the plurality of edge nodes. The central node is configured to delegate a first state decision function to the first edge node so that the first edge node determines that the vehicle enters a first state or determines a first driving policy of the vehicle in the first state by executing the first state decision function.
