MOTION MANAGER, VEHICLE CONTROL SYSTEM, AND VEHICLE CONTROL METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18438878 titled 'MOTION MANAGER, VEHICLE CONTROL SYSTEM, AND VEHICLE CONTROL METHOD

The abstract describes a patent application for a motion manager that includes processors to receive action plans indicating a control mode of a rear wheel steering device from multiple applications, arbitrate these plans to select the one with the highest execution priority, and output the control mode to the rear wheel steering device.

  • Processors in the motion manager receive action plans from various applications.
  • The processors select the action plan with the highest execution priority.
  • The selected action plan includes information about the control mode of a rear wheel steering device.
  • The control mode information is then output to the rear wheel steering device.

Potential Applications: - Automotive industry for vehicles with rear wheel steering capabilities. - Robotics for systems requiring precise control modes. - Industrial automation for machinery with rear wheel steering mechanisms.

Problems Solved: - Efficiently managing and prioritizing control modes from multiple applications. - Ensuring the correct control mode is implemented on the rear wheel steering device.

Benefits: - Improved coordination and execution of control modes. - Enhanced performance and functionality of rear wheel steering systems. - Increased efficiency in managing diverse action plans.

Commercial Applications: Title: "Advanced Motion Manager for Rear Wheel Steering Devices" This technology can be utilized in high-end vehicles, robotic systems, and industrial machinery to optimize control modes and enhance performance. The market implications include improved safety, precision, and efficiency in various applications.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the motion manager prioritize action plans from different applications? - The processors in the motion manager arbitrate the action plans based on their execution priority. 2. What are the potential benefits of implementing this technology in the automotive industry? - The technology can lead to improved handling, maneuverability, and safety in vehicles with rear wheel steering systems.


Original Abstract Submitted

A motion manager includes one or more processors. The one or more processors are configured to receive an action plan that includes information that indicates a control mode of a rear wheel steering device from a plurality of applications, are configured to arbitrate a plurality of the action plans by selecting an action plan of the application with a higher execution priority, and are configured to output the control mode that is included in an arbitrated action plan to the rear wheel steering device.
