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.
Stanford researchers at the Cutkosky Lab have developed a fast process for directly machining into metal to create wedge-shaped geometries. The machined mold is then used to cast gecko-inspired adhesives multiple times without damaging the mold.
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.
Engineers in Prof. Mark Cutkosky's laboratory have developed patented electrostrictive elements that can support high loads over a long lifetime when used as variable suspension systems for robots, autonomous vehicles or prosthetics.
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 portfolio of inventions provides the tools for an advanced navigational system and panoramic virtual tours – technology that is incorporated in Google Street View.
Although tracking has been studied for decades, real-time tracking algorithms often suffer from low accuracy and poor robustness when confronted with difficult, real-world data.
