Verfahren zum Steuern eines Fahrroboters für ein Automobil

摘要

The present invention provides a system for controlling the automatic driving of a vehicle for monitoring its performance and includes robotic controls for operating the driver controls. The relationship between accelerator and throttle-open positions at various speeds is stored and for a particular desired nominal velocity, an estimated open position for the throttle can be determined. The actual velocity of the vehicle, for example, on a dynamometer, is monitored and fed back to create further adjustment of a throttle-open position. Additionally, acceleration and brake pedal force can also be stored and an estimated brake pedal force can be derived and varied, depending upon any calculated difference between the actual velocity monitored and the desired monitored velocity. As a result of these features, a more precise robotic control of the vehicle can be established for closely responding to a predetermined driving pattern.
