Ethical frameworks and principles from philosophy have long been used to characterize human behavior. As driving is transitioning from human control to automated control, these ethical frameworks can be used to guide engineering design decisions for autonomous vehicles in a responsible manner. In particular, moral regulation provides two methods for guiding behavior. Proscriptive strategies emphasize...
Not only do automated vehicles need to meet specifications for technical performance, they also need to satisfy the societal expectations for behavior in traffic with humans. Societal expectations, such as accident avoidance and adherence to traffic laws, have their foundation in core moral issues found in philosophy and ethics. Thus, engineers designing control algorithms for automated vehicles can...
When attempting to drive collision-free paths in emergency situations, automobiles are limited by the amount of force their tires can produce through friction. A road's topography affects the tire forces, so the ability of an autonomous vehicle to follow a desired path depends on the shape of the path in three, not two, dimensions. In this paper, a model that captures the effects of road topography...
