Patent abstract
An enhanced distance detection system for an autonomous or semi-autonomous vehicle is described here. The distance detection system includes a distance detector, which may have a limited scope of distance detection, and a directional controller, which allows extending the dimension or scope of the distance detector as the vehicle travels and performs missions. The directional controller can change the detection direction of the distance detector with a motorized gimbal or functionally similar system, and the change in the detection direction can be integrated with the status of and other instructions executed by the vehicle.
