Embodiment Construction

[0075] introduction

[0076] In order to deselect the target vehicle to control the inter-vehicle distance, certain actions are taken by the autonomously operated vehicle. Identify the identified lanes. Select the target vehicle in the identified lane. The target vehicle is determined to leave the identified lane when an edge of the target vehicle crosses the virtual boundary. The target vehicle is deselected after it is determined that the target vehicle has left the identified lane.

[0077] Relative orientations and directions set forth in this specification (by way of example, above, below, bottom, rear, forward, rear, rear, outside, inside, in, out, lateral, left, right) are not intended to be construed as Rather, it is intended to facilitate the reader's ability to imagine at least one embodiment of the described structure. Such an exemplary orientation is from the perspective of an occupant seated in the driver's seat facing the dashboard. In the drawings, like ref...

Abstract

To deselect a target vehicle, certain actions are taken by an autonomously operating vehicle. An identified lane is identified. A target vehicle in the identified lane is selected. The target vehicleis determined to be departing from the identified lane when an edge of the target vehicle crosses a virtual boundary. The target vehicle is deselected after determining that the target vehicle is departing from the identified lane.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to the field of vehicle control, and more particularly to a method and system for deselecting a target vehicle. Background technique [0002] An ego vehicle that tracks a leading vehicle selected as a target vehicle to control inter-vehicle spacing may be confused by a target vehicle changing lanes, such as when the target vehicle leaves a restricted-access highway. If the ego vehicle continues to target a departing vehicle, the ego vehicle may decelerate inappropriately even though the target vehicle is still in the traffic lane. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [0003] According to the present invention, there is provided a system comprising a computing device comprising a processor and a memory storing instructions executable by the processor for: [0004] identifying the identified lane; [0005] selecting a target vehicle in the identified lane; [0006] determining that the target vehicle leaves the identifie...
