Abstract

See full text

A method of adaptively re-generating a planned path for an autonomous driving maneuver. An object map is generated based on the sensed objects in a road of travel. A timer re-set and actuated. A planned path is generated for autonomously maneuvering the vehicle around the sensed objects. The vehicle is autonomously maneuvered along the planned path. The object map is updated based on sensed data from the vehicle-based devices. A safety check is performed for determining whether the planned path is feasible based on the updated object map. The planned path is re-generated in response to a determination that the existing path is infeasible, otherwise a determination is made as to whether the timer has expired. If the timer has not expired, then a safety check is re-performed; otherwise, a return is made to re-plan the path.
