Abstract

Systems and techniques for a mechanism for conflict resolution and avoidance of collisions for highly automated and autonomous vehicles are described herein. In an example, a gesture resolution system of an autonomous vehicle is adapted to detect, using input received from a camera, a moving object near the autonomous vehicle. The gesture resolution system may be further adapted to determine the moving object presents a risk of collision with the autonomous vehicle. The gesture resolution system may be further adapted to detect a gesture performed by the moving object. The gesture resolution system may be further adapted to determine a meaning of the gesture. The gesture resolution system may be further adapted to display, in a graphical user interface, the meaning for the gesture and an interface element to override the meaning of the gesture.
