Abstract
Systems, methods, and vehicles for capacity based vehicle operation are provided. For example, a method can include receiving, by a computing system including one or more computing devices, object data based in part on one or more states of one or more objects. Based in part on the object data, the computing system can determine one or more features of the one or more objects. Based on a comparison of the one or more features of the one or more objects to a vehicle capacity criterion, the one or more objects that satisfy the vehicle capacity criterion can be determined. The vehicle capacity criterion can be based in part on a carrying capacity of an autonomous vehicle. In response to the one or more objects satisfying the vehicle capacity criterion, one or more control systems associated with operation of the autonomous vehicle can be activated by the computing system.
