VEHICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18657917 titled 'VEHICLE
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a vehicle that can be equipped with an Autonomous Driving Kit (ADK). The vehicle platform controls the vehicle based on instructions from the ADK, with a vehicle control interface facilitating communication between the two systems. The vehicle can receive deceleration requests from both the driver and the ADK, and during autonomous mode, it combines these requests to determine the target deceleration of the vehicle.
- The vehicle can be fitted with an Autonomous Driving Kit (ADK).
- The vehicle platform controls the vehicle according to instructions from the ADK.
- A vehicle control interface enables communication between the ADK and the vehicle platform.
- The vehicle can receive deceleration requests from the driver and the ADK.
- During autonomous mode, the vehicle calculates the target deceleration based on both driver and system requests.
Key Features and Innovation

Questions about Autonomous Vehicle Deceleration Control System
1. What are the key components of an Autonomous Driving Kit (ADK) in a vehicle platform? 2. How does the vehicle platform calculate the target deceleration during autonomous mode?
Original Abstract Submitted
A vehicle is a vehicle on which an autonomous driving kit (ADK) is mountable. The vehicle includes: a vehicle platform (VP) that controls the vehicle in accordance with an instruction from the ADK; and a vehicle control interface that serves as an interface between the ADK and the VP. The VP receives a driver deceleration request in accordance with an amount of depression of a brake pedal by a driver, and receives a system deceleration request from the ADK through the vehicle control interface. During an autonomous mode, the VP specifies the sum of the driver deceleration request and the system deceleration request as a target deceleration of the vehicle.
