[0029] systematic review

[0030] figure 1 is a block diagram of an exemplary autonomous vehicle system 100 . Computer 105 may be configured to communicate via network 120 with one or more remote sites, such as server 125 , where such remote sites may include data storage 130 . Vehicle 101 includes a vehicle computer 105, wherein vehicle computer 105 is configured to receive data from one or more data collectors 110 relating to various components of vehicle 101 (e.g., components such as steering, braking, powertrain, etc.) and Information (eg, collected data 115 ) related to / or conditions such as vehicle 101 speed, acceleration, pitch, yaw, roll, etc. Computer 105 generally includes an autonomous driving module 106 that includes instructions to operate vehicle 101 autonomously (ie, without operator input), possibly in response to instructions received from server 125 . In addition, the computer 105 will typically be used to receive data from, for example, one or more data c...

Abstract

Instructions are provided to a vehicle braking mechanism for autonomous operation of the braking mechanism. At least one first parameter is retrieved for governing control of the braking mechanism. The first parameter is applied to operation of the braking mechanism. Data is collected relating to operation of the vehicle. At least one second parameter is determined for governing control of the braking mechanism.

Description

technical field [0001] Exemplary embodiments relate to a system and method for monitoring braking of an autonomous vehicle. Background technique [0002] Vehicles, such as automobiles, may be configured for autonomous driving operations. For example, a vehicle may include a central control unit or the like (i.e., a computing device having a processor and memory), where the central control unit receives data from various vehicle data collection devices, such as sensors, and often also receives data from external data sources (such as navigation information). The central control unit may then provide instructions to various vehicle components (such as actuators controlling steering, braking, acceleration, etc.) to control vehicle operation with no or reduced human operator action . [0003] Autonomous and non-autonomous vehicles may be equipped with monitoring systems for detecting failures in various vehicle subsystems, such as the vehicle braking system. However, vehicle...
