ASSURED CONTROL FOR ROBOTIC VEHICLES

Techniques are directed to operating a remotely controlled vehicle. Such techniques involve receiving a set of vehicle controller signals from a vehicle controller which is external to the remotely controlled vehicle, the set of vehicle controller signals identifying a set of expected vehicle conditions. Such techniques further involve receiving a set of vehicle sensor signals from a set of sensors of the remotely controlled vehicle, the set of vehicle sensor signals identifying a set of actual vehicle conditions. Such techniques further involve, based on the set of vehicle controller signals and the set of vehicle sensor signals, performing a safety evaluation operation which outputs a safety evaluation signal indicating whether the set of actual vehicle conditions aligns with the set of expected vehicle conditions.
