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.
NAVIGATION SYSTEM WITH TRAFFIC STATE DETECTION MECHANISM AND METHOD OF OPERATION THEREOF
A navigation system includes: a control circuit configured to: generate a video clip by parsing an interval of a sensor data stream for a region of travel; analyze the video clip submitted to a deep learning model, already trained, including identifying a traffic flow estimate; access a position coordinate for calculating a distance to intersection; generate a traffic flow state by fusing a corrected speed, the traffic flow estimate, and the distance to intersection; merge a vehicle maneuvering instruction into the traffic flow state for maneuvering through the region of travel; and a communication circuit, coupled to the control circuit, configured to: communicate the traffic flow state for displaying on a device.

AUTOMATED HIGHWAY SYSTEM (AHS)
A system and method for controlling vehicles and for providing assistance to operated vehicles is discussed and described herein.
Intelligent Entry and Egress for Dedicated Lane
Systems and techniques are described for enabling access and egress to dedicated lanes in a vehicular environment. In some implementations, a system include a central server, a gantry system, and a plurality of sensors. The plurality of sensors are positioned in a fixed location relative to a roadway. Each sensor in the plurality of sensors can detect vehicles in a field of view on the roadway. For each detected vehicle, each sensor can generate sensor data and provide the generated sensor data to the gantry system. The gantry system can receive the sensor data and determine whether the detected vehicle can access the dedicated lane based on the received sensor data. In response to determining the detected vehicle can access the dedicated lane, the gantry system can display an entry speed, open a gate to enable the detected vehicle access, and display an access indicator to the detected vehicle.
Road element sensors and identifiers
Systems and techniques are described for identifying, monitoring, and sharing vehicle information amongst sensors. In some implementations, a system includes a central server and a plurality of sensors. The plurality of sensors are positioned in a fixed location relative to a roadway. Each sensor in the plurality of sensors is configured to: detect vehicles in a first field of view on the roadway. For each detected vehicle, each sensor is configured to identify features of the detected vehicle and perform operations for each feature. The operations include generating feature data representing the feature, generating a unique identification of the detected vehicle from the detected vehicles by concatenating the feature data representing the identified features of the detected vehicle, and adding the unique identification to a list.
VEHICLE-TO-X COMMUNICATION AND HANDLING FOR VEHICLE COORDINATION AND MANAGEMENT
A system receives confirmation that a vehicle has accepted automatic control imposition for a drive within a geo-fenced boundary. The system tracks travel of a plurality of vehicles, including the vehicle, within the geo-fenced boundary. The system may determine that the vehicle has a threshold likelihood of encountering at least one of another vehicle or a boundary of the geo-fence at a threshold speed or above and responsive to the determination, impose automatic control on the vehicle, including at least one of controlled braking or speed limiting.
