A steering control system for an autonomous or semi-autonomous vehicle including at least one gaze sensor determining a driver gaze angle. The system also includes a controller comparing the driver gaze angle to predetermined gaze angles required for future vehicle locations associated with vehicle maneuvers.

Driver readiness assessment system and method for vehicle

A method of transitioning from an autonomous driving mode to a manual driving mode for a vehicle is provided. The method includes comparing a steering device input angle to an autonomously controlled steering angle to determine a steering angle error. The method also includes comparing an acceleration or deceleration input to an autonomously controlled acceleration or deceleration input to determine an acceleration or deceleration error. The method further includes progressively transitioning to the manual driving mode in a weighted manner based on a confidence level factor determined by a calculation that factors in the steering angle error and the acceleration or deceleration error.

Transition governance system and method for autonomous vehicle

A host vehicle includes a driver re-engagement assessment system and an X-by-wire device adapted for both manual control and automated control by an automated guidance system. The driver re-engagement assessment system includes a controller, a user interface, and test execution module and a test evaluation module. The user interface is configured to interface with an occupant and output an occupant directive signal for manual control to the controller. The test execution module initiates an occupant re-engagement test upon receipt of the occupant directive signal by the controller. The test evaluation module is configured to receive an occupant performance signal indicative of occupant performance during the re-engagement test, and evaluate the occupant performance signal to determine a test pass result and a test fail result. The manual control of the host vehicle is assumed by the occupant upon the determination of the test pass result.
