Abstract
A method for drift detection and control for a vehicle may include determining an intentional drift probability of the vehicle based at least in part on one or more occupant inputs. The method further may include determining an initial aero bias upper bound using a first control system. The method further may include determining an initial aero bias command using a second control system. The method further may include determining a final aero bias upper bound based at least in part on the intentional drift probability, the initial aero bias upper bound, and the initial aero bias command. The method further may include controlling one or more aerodynamic actuators of the vehicle based at least in part on the final aero bias upper bound and the initial aero bias command.
