Provided is an information processing device including: a first acquisition unit configured to acquire a task; a second acquisition unit configured to acquire a processing time of the task; a third acquisition unit configured to acquire a wirelessly communicable period with an external communication device; and a communication control unit configured to control, based on the processing time and the wirelessly communicable period, a wireless communication unit to transmit request information to the external communication device, the request information requesting to process at least a part of the task, in which the communication control unit is configured to control the wireless communication unit to perform direct communication with the external communication device.

A method of controlling an autonomous vehicle and an electronic device are provided, which relate to a field of artificial intelligence technology, and in particular to a field of autonomous driving technology. The method includes: acquiring a vehicle state configuration information from a cloud; enabling a task receiving function of the vehicle, in response to the vehicle state configuration information indicating that the vehicle is in an automatic operation state; acquiring a task information from the cloud in response to the task receiving function being enabled; and controlling the vehicle according to the task information.

In at least one example embodiment, a computer system includes a memory storing instructions and at least one processor configured to executed the instructions to cause the computer system to obtain sensor data, the sensor data corresponding to measurements of at least one component of an electric powertrain system of at least one vehicle and generate a first digital twin based on the obtained sensor data, the first generated twin associated with a type of the at least one vehicle.

Vehicles can employ onboard telematic monitoring devices to collect vehicle and operation data, such as for improved vehicle fleet management. Such telematic monitoring devices are dependent on power from a vehicle, such that data collection and communication can be interrupted if a telematic monitoring device is disconnected or has a poor connection. The present disclosure relates to battery devices, which provide power to telematic monitoring devices as needed in order to maintain data collection and communication, or other more limited functionality. The present disclosure also relates to systems including battery devices, and methods for operating battery devices. The present disclosure also relates to detecting temperature of batteries, as well as emergency input and messages for telematic monitoring systems.

According to one or more examples, a system includes an observer vehicle, and a vehicle in a predetermined vicinity of the observer vehicle. The observer vehicle detects an operating condition of the vehicle using one or more perception devices. The observer vehicle determines that the operating condition does not satisfy a predetermined norm. The observer vehicle generates a message indicating the operating condition of the vehicle. The observer vehicle identifies a communication identifier of the vehicle. The observer vehicle sends the message to be received by the vehicle using the communication identifier via a vehicle to everything (V2X) communication module.

A vehicle computer can be programmed to detect, in a vehicle, one of a plurality of variations, based on data received from one or more vehicle sensors or a vehicle interface, to transmit, to a remote computer, variation data including the detected variation and a version of software in the vehicle computer, wherein the variation data identifies the detected variation and the version of the software, to receive, from the remote computer, a response including that a software update is identified based on the detected variation, and upon identifying the software update, to download and install the software update in the vehicle computer.

A system includes a server including a controller. The controller is configured to obtain information regarding consent or non-consent of a user of a vehicle to disclosure of history data of the vehicle to a third party, and determine, when determination is made that consent of the user is not obtained, whether to transmit a signal that prompts for obtaining consent of the user, based on at least one of the history data of the vehicle and user activity information of the user.

An autonomous vehicle (AV) includes features that allows the AV to comply with applicable regulations and statues for performing safe driving operation. An example system for an AV includes a communications gateway device. The communications gateway device includes a plurality of modules each configured for different communication mediums or applications. In particular, the plurality of modules includes a first module for communicating with a remote computer. Via the first module, vehicle operational data is reported to the remote computer, and instructional data is received from the remote computer. The modules further include a second module for communicating with devices located within a vicinity external to the vehicle, and a third module configured to communicate with subsystems located within the vehicle. The example AV system includes a second communications gateway device that is configured to be redundant.
