Abstract
A driver command predictor includes a controller, multiple sensors, and a command prediction unit. The controller is configured to command an adjustment of multiple motion vectors of a vehicle relative to a roadway in response to multiple actual driver commands and multiple future driver commands. The actual driver commands are received at a current time. The future driver commands are received at multiple update times. The update times range from the current time to a future time. The sensors are configured to generate sensor data that determines multiple actual states of the vehicle in response to the motion vectors as commanded. The command prediction unit is configured to generate the future driver commands at the update times in response to a driver model. The driver model operates on the actual driver commands and the actual states to predict the future driver commands at the update times.
