Embodiment Construction

[0036] A wheel runout sensing system including a computer in an autonomous vehicle is described. In some examples, the system also includes a backend server. According to one illustrative example, a computer includes a processor and memory storing instructions executable by the processor. The instructions may include receiving sensor data from sensors in the vehicle operating in the fully autonomous mode; using the data, determining an offset value; and based on the value, performing one of a plurality of vehicle driving functions including stopping the vehicle.

[0037] According to at least one example above, the plurality of vehicle driving functions further includes decelerating the vehicle according to a maximum speed threshold.

[0038] According to at least one example above, the instructions further include: decelerating the vehicle based on the first deviation value, and stopping the vehicle based on the second larger deviation value.

[0039] According to at least ...

Abstract

Disclosed are a computer and a method executable by the computer. The computer may include a processor and a memory storing instructions executable by the processor. The instructions may include, to:receive sensor data from a sensor in a vehicle operating in a fully autonomous mode; using the data, determine a misalignment value; and based on the value, perform one of a plurality of vehicle driving functions that include stopping the vehicle.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of vehicle technology, and more particularly to determining the misalignment of vehicle wheels. Background technique [0002] Vehicle wheel misalignment can cause abnormal or excessive tire wear. This may require the owner of the vehicle to replace the vehicle tires before the specified tire life. Contents of the invention [0003] According to the present invention, a computer is provided, comprising: [0004] A processor and a memory storing instructions executable by the processor, including instructions for: [0005] Receive sensor data from sensors in the vehicle operating in a fully autonomous mode; [0006] Using the data, determine the bias value; and [0007] Based on the value, one of a plurality of vehicle driving functions including stopping the vehicle is performed. [0008] According to an embodiment of the present invention, wherein the plurality of vehicle driving functions further compr...
