AUTOMATED VEHICLE MAP UPDATES BASED ON HUMAN VERIFICATION

摘要

A map-update system to update maps used by an automated vehicle includes an object-detection-device, an operator-communication-device, and a controller. The object-detection-device is used to detect objects proximate to a vehicle. The operator-communication-device is used to communicate an inquiry to an operator and detect a response from the operator. The controller is in communication with the object-detection-device and the operator-communication-device. The controller is configured to navigate the vehicle in accordance with a digitized-map, determine when an object detected by the object-detection-device does not correspond to an expected-feature present in the digitized-map, output an inquiry regarding the object to the operator via the operator-communication-device, and update the digitized-map based on the response from the operator.
