Example methods and systems for controlling speeds of a vehicle may generally determine a target vehicle acceleration using an autonomy control module of the vehicle. The target vehicle acceleration may be determined based upon at least one of a target vehicle following distance, a target vehicle following speed, or a target vehicle speed. The determined vehicle acceleration may be mapped to a level of vehicle torque using a vehicle dynamics module of the vehicle. Additionally, the level of vehicle torque may be applied to one or more wheels of the vehicle.

Systems and methods for electric vehicle speed control

Methods, systems, and media for determining characteristics of roads are provided. In some embodiments, the method comprises: receiving, at a first time point, first camera information from a camera associated with a vehicle; identifying a first position of a feature of an object in front of the vehicle based on the first camera information; receiving, at an additional time point, additional camera information from the camera; identifying an updated position of the feature of the object in front of the vehicle based on the additional camera information; determining a relative motion of the feature of the object in front of the vehicle based on the first position and the updated position; and determining a characteristic of a road the vehicle is on based on the relative motion of the feature of the object in front of the vehicle.

Methods, systems, and media for determining characteristics of roads

Systems and methods are described for monitoring awareness of a vehicle occupant. An approach may involve connecting, by the vehicle, to a wireless device of the vehicle occupant, receiving, by the vehicle, a signal from the wireless device indicative of activity of the vehicle occupant and processing the signal to determine a level of awareness of the vehicle occupant, determining whether the level of awareness of the vehicle occupant satisfies a threshold, and generating, by the vehicle, an alert based upon whether the level of awareness of the vehicle occupant satisfies the threshold.
