Navigation and control

Deciding with safety layers

Autonomous vehicles must know what to do if a sensor degrades or a module fails. We plan the route on the map, execute it with commands to the vehicle, supervise every module, and a safety ECU brakes in an emergency, even if the network fails.

The vehicle follows the planned route through the city, in simulation.

What navigation and control are

Navigating is choosing a route and trajectory without collisions, from the map and what is perceived. Controlling is turning it into commands for steering, throttle and brake. A supervisor watches each module; if one fails, it orders a planned reaction: slow down or stop.

The problem it solves

An autonomous vehicle must fail safely. Many old stacks do not. They must be modernised without losing what already worked.

Illustrative diagram

How we do it

01

Route

The route is planned with the map and the position.

02

Control

The trajectory becomes commands on the vehicle bus.

03

Supervision

We monitor each module's status and define how to react to a failure.

04

Safety

A safety ECU brakes in an emergency; automatic braking adds redundancy.

Questions

What happens if the route is blocked?

The vehicle stops safely and, if needed, a person helps it remotely.

Can it switch to manual mode?

Yes, depending on the configuration of each vehicle and operation.

Does it integrate with other suppliers?

Yes. We work on open architectures to integrate with what you already have.
