UNTRAINED SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR VEHICLE SPEED ESTIMATION
A speed estimation system includes: a detection module configured to determine bounding boxes of an object moving on a surface in images, respectively, captured using a camera; a solver module configured to, based on the bounding boxes, determine a homography of the surface by solving an optimization problem, where the solver module is not trained; and a speed module configured to, using the homography, determine a speed that the object is moving on the surface.
Vehicle control system and method
A vehicle control system is provided that includes a control unit that can be disposed onboard a vehicle to control movement of the vehicle; and one or more transceiver devices that can emit plural signals from the vehicle, with at least one of the plural signals containing a vehicle identifier, and, responsive to a receiver unit disposed off-board the vehicle receiving at least one of the plural signals, the control unit can determine a location of the vehicle and can communicate a signal to the one or more transceiver devices based on the location. The control unit can change the movement of the vehicle based on the vehicle location information.

Vehicle control apparatus
A vehicle control apparatus determines a travelling region in which the vehicle is travelling among a plurality of regions into which an area is divided by a predetermined boundary line. When an obtained position which is determined based on a positioning signal from a positioning satellite is not included in a boundary zone, the apparatus determines that the travelling region is a region in which the obtained position is included. The boundary zone is a belt-like zone including the boundary line. Meanwhile, when the obtained position is not included in the boundary zone, the apparatus determines the travelling region based on a piece of information included in an image of an area in front of the vehicle. Each piece of the information is associated with one of the regions having a part overlapping the boundary zone.

Cloud-based system and method for traffic assessment and control
The present disclosure relates to a system and method for updating traffic-related infrastructure. The method includes determining average traffic stream speed and average traffic density over a segment of a highway. The method further includes determining, upon analysis of the determined average traffic stream speed and average traffic density over a segment of a highway, an appropriate action in order to update the infrastructure.

CONTROL APPARATUS, MOBILE OBJECT, MANAGEMENT SERVER, BASE STATION, COMMUNICATION SYSTEM, AND COMMUNICATION METHOD
A control apparatus (10) generates probe data from sensing data obtained by sensing objects in a mobile object's surroundings. The control apparatus (10) selects at least some pieces of probe data as transmission data from the probe data generated, according to a communication resource determined according to a role of the mobile object. The control apparatus (10) transmits the transmission data selected to a management server (20). The management server (20) updates management data such as a dynamic map based on the transmission data.
VEHICLE CONTROL SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING INFORMATION TO SUPPORT OVERTAKING MANEUVER
A vehicle control system for providing information to support an overtaking maneuver by a first vehicle, the vehicle control system includes: a processing circuitry adapted to be operatively connected to a traffic view camera and configured to: receive image data of at least one other vehicle in traffic by the traffic view camera; determine, based on the image data of the at least one other vehicle in traffic, overtaking support data indicative of at least one gap in the traffic suitable for an overtaking maneuver; and provide the overtaking support data to the first vehicle for supporting an overtaking maneuver by the first vehicle.
WRONG WAY DRIVING PREVENTION
An example operation includes one or more of initially determining, via one or more sensors on a transport, that the transport is approaching a one-way road in a wrong direction based on a slowing down of the transport and a movement of the transport toward the one-way road, notifying, via the one or more sensors, one or more occupants of the transport about the approaching, and in response to the transport continuing to approach in the wrong direction, slowing the transport, by a computer associated with the transport, to not permit entry into the one-way road.
