Abstract
The present invention relates to a computer-implemented method of controlling an autonomous vehicle. The method comprises: receiving current sensor data defining a current scenario; determining a distance between the current scenario and a closest scenario from a database of known scenarios; and controlling the autonomous vehicle by: manoeuvring the autonomous vehicle within a manoeuvring constraint associated with the closest scenario when the distance is below a first threshold; performing a minimal risk manoeuvre when the distance is above a second threshold, wherein the second threshold is greater than the first threshold; and interpolating the manoeuvring constraint associated with the closest scenario when the distance is between the first threshold and the second threshold, and manoeuvring the autonomous vehicle within the interpolated manoeuvring constraint.
