Abstract
A control system for an autonomous vehicle includes a time sensitive network switch and a control system interface. The control system interface includes a primary processing unit, a secondary processing unit, and a fault detection module. The control system receives a trajectory of an autonomous vehicle. The fault detection module detects a fault condition with the primary processing unit and prevents the primary processing unit from transmitting a primary control signal in response to the fault condition. The primary control signal is for autonomous control of the autonomous vehicle.
