METHOD FOR CONTROLLING AN EGO VEHICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240208540 titled 'METHOD FOR CONTROLLING AN EGO VEHICLE

The abstract describes a method for controlling an ego vehicle by receiving map data, determining a safe driving corridor, determining a safety region based on the vehicle's motion state, checking if the safety region is within the safe driving corridor, and outputting a control signal for a safety maneuver if needed.

  • Receiving map data of the surrounding environment
  • Determining a safe driving corridor based on the map data
  • Determining a safety region based on the vehicle's motion state
  • Checking if the safety region is within the safe driving corridor during travel
  • Outputting a control signal for a safety maneuver if the safety region is partially outside the safe driving corridor

Potential Applications: - Autonomous driving systems - Vehicle safety systems - Traffic management systems

Problems Solved: - Ensuring safe navigation of ego vehicles - Preventing collisions and accidents - Improving overall road safety

Benefits: - Enhanced safety for both passengers and pedestrians - Efficient and reliable control of ego vehicles - Reduced risk of accidents and injuries

Commercial Applications: Title: "Advanced Ego Vehicle Control System for Enhanced Safety" This technology can be used in autonomous vehicles, transportation companies, and smart city initiatives to improve road safety and traffic management.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does this method improve the overall safety of ego vehicles? 2. What are the key factors that determine the safe driving corridor for the ego vehicle?


Original Abstract Submitted

a method for controlling an ego vehicle. the method includes: receiving map data of a map representation of a surrounding environment of an ego vehicle; determining a safe driving corridor of the ego vehicle based on the map data of the map representation; determining a safety region of the ego vehicle based on a state of motion of the ego vehicle; checking whether the safety region is located completely within the safe driving corridor during travel of the ego vehicle along a travel trajectory; and outputting a control signal for executing a safety maneuver if the safety region is located at least partially outside the safe driving corridor.
