An apparatus of a vehicle includes one or more processors and a memory storing one or more programs that, when executed by the one or more processors communicating with the memory, are configured to cause the apparatus to estimate, based on a driving image of a preceding vehicle captured by a camera of the vehicle, a roll rate of the preceding vehicle, determine a possibility of a pothole avoidance, wherein the possibility is determined based on the roll rate of the preceding vehicle, driving information about the preceding vehicle, and driving information about the vehicle, output a signal indicating the possibility, and control, based on the signal and based on an estimated pothole, autonomous driving of the vehicle.

An apparatus of a host vehicle includes one or more processors and memory storing one or more programs that, when executed by the one or more processors in communication with the memory, are configured to cause the apparatus to: estimate a roll rate of a front vehicle based on a travel image of the front vehicle captured by a camera of the host vehicle; determine a pothole avoidance likelihood, wherein the likelihood is determined based on the roll rate of the front vehicle, travel information of the front vehicle, and travel information of the host vehicle; output a signal indicative of the likelihood; and control autonomous driving of the host vehicle based on the signal and based on the estimated pothole.

In the present invention, a controller includes: a reception unit that acquires sprung acceleration, which is acceleration in the vertical direction, roll rate, and pitch rate from an IMU included in a vehicle; a sprung acceleration calculation unit that calculates the sprung acceleration of each wheel of the vehicle on the basis of the values input to the reception unit and specifications of the vehicle; a stroke speed calculation AI that calculates the stroke speed of a suspension device of each wheel using a mathematical model of the vehicle that receives, as input, the sprung acceleration of each wheel and a value indicating the force that is generated by a corresponding variable damper; a sprung speed calculation AI that calculates the spring speed of each wheel; and a ride comfort control unit that determines a control amount for controlling the variable damper from the sprung speed and the stroke speed.

A suspension assembly includes an upper control arm, a lower control arm, a damper coupled between the lower control arm and a frame rail, and a roll control cylinder coupled between the lower control arm and the frame rail. The roll control cylinder includes a body defining an internal cavity, a piston movably arranged within internal cavity, and a rod coupled to the piston and extending outwardly from the body. The piston divides the internal cavity into a piston chamber and a rod chamber. The suspension assembly further includes an accumulator in fluid communication with the piston chamber, and a charge supply in fluid communication with the accumulator. The charge supply is configured to selectively change a charge pressure within the accumulator to adjust a roll rate or stiffness defined by the roll control cylinder.

A computer-implemented method for checking the plausibility of a measured or determined roll rate of a vehicle body of a vehicle about a longitudinal axis of the vehicle, in which a transverse acceleration change or a transverse jerk is calculated from a measured or determined transverse acceleration in the transverse direction of the vehicle, on the basis of which plausible value or a plausible range for the roll rate is determined.

The invention discloses a low-cost bicycle hardware device for self-balancing and steering control, and the device is characterized in that the device comprises a frame; the power source is installed on the bicycle frame and used for providing power for electric elements of the bicycle; the hub motor is mounted on a rear wheel of the frame, and the hub motor is used for providing power for advancing of the bicycle; the steering servo motor is mounted near a handle of the frame, and the steering servo motor is used for controlling the handle to steer; the inertial measurement unit is fixedly mounted at the position, close to the center of mass of the bicycle, of the bicycle frame and used for measuring the three-axis acceleration and the three-axis angular velocity of a bicycle body in real time; and the central calculation unit calculates the roll angle and the roll angle speed of the vehicle body based on the three-axis acceleration and the three-axis angular speed of the vehicle body, and generates a steering instruction and a speed instruction based on the roll angle and the roll angle speed of the vehicle body. The technical problem that in the prior art, a contradiction which is difficult to reconcile exists between a low-cost assembly and a high-performance control requirement is solved.
