System for automatically recognising anomalous situations along roads travelled by motor-vehicles for intelligent motor-vehicle driving speed control along roads. The system comprises data processing resources configured to: receive and process data transmitted by the motor-vehicles to recognise anomalous situations along the roads travelled by the motor-vehicles based on a recognition algorithm, when anomalous situations are recognised along roads travelled by the motor-vehicles, generate associated alert events and compute reference driving speeds along the roads recognised to be affected by anomalous situations, and transmit data representative of the alert events and of the reference driving speeds along the roads recognised to be affected by anomalous situations.

An automotive autonomous driving system comprising automotive on-board systems comprising a propulsion system, a braking system, a steering system, and a sensory system, an automotive user interface, and an automotive electronic control unit connected to, via an automotive on-board communications network, and configured to cooperate with, the automotive on-board systems and the automotive user interface to provide an automotive autonomous driving system. The automotive electronic control unit is further configured to store and populate a database of recurrent low speed manoeuvres and cause recurrent low speed manoeuvres stored in the database of recurrent low speed manoeuvres to be repeated in autonomous driving mode.

Automotive autonomous driving to perform complex recurrent low speed manoeuvres

An automotive accelerator device includes an accelerator member movable in response to driver operation, a position sensor associated with the accelerator member to output a position signal indicating an operation degree of the accelerator member, and signal processing means configured to receive the position signal generated by the position sensor and to generate a command for a motor vehicle engine based on the position signal and a characteristic curve of the accelerator device that defines the command for the motor vehicle engine as a function of the position signal; the signal processing means are further configured to: receive signals indicating a current motor vehicle speed and a target motor vehicle speed, and to dynamically adapt the accelerator device characteristic curve based on the current motor vehicle speed with respect to the target motor vehicle speed.
