Abstract
A computer-implemented method, system, and/or computer program product causes a self-driving vehicle (SDV) to avoid a physical encounter with an animal. An SDV on-board computer on an SDV receives an animal predicted movement signal from an animal signal transceiver worn by an animal, and an SDV movement signal from a set of SDV sensors on the SDV that track movement of the SDV. One or more processors determine a probability of a physical encounter (E) between the SDV and the animal exceeding a predefined confidence value (C) based on the animal predicted movement signal and the SDV movement signal. In response to determining that E>C, the SDV on-board computer instructs an SDV control processor on the SDV to direct SDV vehicular physical control mechanisms on the SDV to adjust the current speed and direction of movement of the SDV.
