Patent attributes
Optimizing performance of an autonomous vehicle (AV) includes acquiring information pertaining to a plurality of factors associated with the AV. The plurality of factors includes a route to be traversed by the AV for a ride, a type of a road included in the route, a real-time location of the AV, a time of travel, and a weather condition at the time of travel. An optimal configuration is selected based on the acquired information for operating components of the AV. The components are configured in real time to operate at the optimal configuration. When the components operate at the optimal configuration, a power consumed by the components is reduced and a durability of the components is increased relative to when the components operate at a first configuration that is different from the optimal configuration.
