Embodiment Construction

[0008] figure 1 A non-limiting example of a safe parking area identification system 10 (hereinafter system 10 ) suitable for use on an automated vehicle (eg, host vehicle 12 ) is shown. Some of the examples provided herein generally relate to instances where host vehicle 12 is operating in automatic mode 14 (ie, a fully automatic mode) in which operator 20 of host vehicle 12 may only specify a destination in order to operate host vehicle 12 . However, it is contemplated that the teachings provided herein are useful when the host vehicle 12 is operating in a manual mode 16 where the degree or level of automation techniques may only be directed towards controlling the steering, accelerator and brakes of the host vehicle 12 as a whole. The human operator 20 provides steering recommendations. For example, the system 10 may assist the human operator 20 only when needed to change lanes and / or avoid interference and / or collisions with, for example, objects 22 such as other vehicles....

Abstract

The invention discloses an automated vehicle safe stop zone use notification system. The automated vehicle safe stop zone use notification system (10) suitable for use on an automated-vehicle includesa digital-map (24), a transceiver (18), and a controller (34). The digital-map (24) indicates a travel-path (26) suitable for travel by a host-vehicle (12), wherein the digital-map (24) also indicates a safe-stop-zone (32) proximate to the travel-path (26). The transceiver (18) is operable to broadcast information (52) about the host-vehicle (12). The controller (34) is in communication with thedigital-map (24) and the transceiver (18). The controller (34) navigates the host-vehicle (12) into the safe-stop-zone (32) when an emergency-situation occurs, and then operates the transceiver (18) to broadcast that the safe-stop-zone (32) is occupied by the host-vehicle (12).

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates generally to safe parking area mapping systems, and more particularly to a system configured to navigate a host vehicle to a safe parking area in the event of an emergency and then operate a transceiver to broadcast a safe parking Area is occupied by host vehicle. Background technique [0002] Situations arise when a vehicle needs to be pulled over or otherwise stopped due to, for example, a medical emergency or mechanical failure in the vehicle. Situations also arise when an autonomous vehicle may require a human operator to assume manual control of the vehicle, but the operator may not be ready or may not be able to take over control because, for example, the operator is immobile, the operator lacks the skill to operate the vehicle . Contents of the invention [0003] According to one embodiment, a safe parking area identification system suitable for use on an automated vehicle is provided. The system includes a di...
