A vehicle system for estimating a trailer size may include a plurality of sensors arranged on a vehicle and may be configured to detect objects external to the vehicle and provide trailer data indicative of a trailer location behind a vehicle and a memory configured to maintain a virtual grid including a plurality of cells. The system may also include a controller in communication with the sensors and memory and configured to determine, based on the trailer data received within a predefined amount of time, an occupancy frequency for each of the plurality of cells, the occupancy frequency being an incrementation of each time an object was detected within the respective cell; determine a threshold distribution based on the occupancy frequency of each cell; and determine a trailer size based on the cells having an occupancy frequency exceeding the threshold distribution.

Method and system for trailer size estimating and monitoring

A vehicle sensor system for providing data for performance of vehicle features may include a plurality of sensors arranged on a vehicle, each sensor having a sensor profile, a memory configured to maintain the sensor profile, and a controller in communication with the plurality of sensors and memory and configured to receive data from each of the plurality of sensors in order at least one vehicle feature, detect a failure of a first sensor in which the first sensor fails to provide sensor data necessary to provide the vehicle feature, and use sensor data received from the second sensor to provide the vehicle feature in response to the sensor profile of the second sensor including a required attribute of the first sensor.

Multi-sensor management systems for ADAS

A toll road detection and notification system for a vehicle includes a plurality of cameras, a sign recognition unit, and a driver alert system. The plurality of cameras is configured to take images of a vehicle's environment. The sign recognition unit is configured to analyze the images from the plurality of cameras, detect a toll sign, and determine toll information. The driver alert system is configured to receive toll information from the sign recognition unit and notify a driver of the vehicle of the toll information.

Toll road detection and reporting system

Systems, methods, and apparatuses are provided and include a receiver module that is configured to receive at least one radar signal. A control module includes a processor that is configured to execute instruction stored in a nontransitory memory. The control module is configured to generate a Fourier transformation based on the at least one radar signal, and the control module is configured to determine a presence of wave interference based on the Fourier transformation. A primary indicator module is configured to, in response to the control module determining the presence of wave interference, generate an indication. The indication corresponds to the presence of wave interference.
