Researchers at Stanford have developed a method for instructing the steering system of an autonomous vehicle to perform a lateral steering action, e.g., when changing lanes or repositioning within a lane.
Researchers at Stanford have advanced the concept of an "Anticipatory Control Interface" that informs the driver of a partially automated vehicle of its lateral trajectory plan.
Researchers at Stanford have developed a distributed digital "black box" audit trail design for connected and automated vehicle data and software assurance.
Engineers in Prof. Mark Cutkosky's laboratory have patented a compact, intuitive, haptic vehicle feedback system that communicates multi-dimensional information to drivers through the grip of the steering wheel.
Stanford researchers have patented a hardware and software system designed for automated assisted steering that combines automated and human vehicle control within driving lanes.
This compact, low-cost, high resolution angular position sensor is designed to improve the movement of rotary joints. The capacitive sensor, which includes two flat discs patterned with conductive material can be packaged in tight spaces.
This portfolio of inventions provides the tools for an advanced navigational system and panoramic virtual tours – technology that is incorporated in Google Street View.
