Collaborative perception is based on recognition that a fleet of AVs and stationary infrastructure objects equipped with sensors may be configured to communicate with one another in sharing their sensor data, thus benefiting from collaborative perception, rather than being limited to their individual perception. Three specific scenarios of collaborative perception are disclosed. The first scenario relates to two AVs in the vicinity of one another exchanging complexity scores indicative of their respective environments. The second scenario relates to an AV detecting that it has a blind spot and seeking other AVs or infrastructure objects to provide information indicative of the environment in the blind spot. The third scenario relates to providing infrastructure objects equipped with sensors in appropriate locations so that, when an AV is in the vicinity of such objects, the AV may receive information from their sensors.

The system includes a communication device associated with each of a plurality of micromobility vehicles, the communication device configured to transmit location data associated with a respective micromobility vehicle. A server is communicatively coupled with each communication device. The server is configured to receive the location data from each communication device, wherein the location data includes at least one of a current location, a direction of travel, or a destination of the plurality of micromobility vehicles, determine a navigational route for each micromobility vehicle, wherein the navigational route is configured to group the plurality of micromobility vehicles en route to a respective destination of each micromobility vehicle, and transmit the navigational route to each communication device.

A vehicle control device includes: a first detection unit that detects a traveling state of a host vehicle; a merging detection unit that detects that the host vehicle approaches within a predetermined area of a merging point when the host vehicle travels on the merging road toward the merging point at which a main road joins with the merging road; a second detection unit that detects a speed of a lane flow by another vehicle that travels on the main road toward the merging point; a position detection unit that obtains a position of a pre-merging point as a virtual point on the main road reaching the merging point when the host vehicle reaches the merging point; and a display control unit that controls a display device to display the position of the host vehicle and the pre-merging point.

Methods and systems for communicating between autonomous vehicles are described herein. Such communication may be performed for signaling, collision avoidance, path coordination, and/or autonomous control. A computing device may receive data for the same road segment from autonomous vehicles, including (i) an indication of a location within the road segment, and (ii) an indication of a condition of the road segment. The computing device may generate, from the data for the same road segment, an overall indication of the condition of the road segment, which may include a recommendation to vehicles approaching the road segment. Additionally, the computing device may receive a request from a computing device within a vehicle approaching the road segment to display vehicle data. The overall indication for the road segment may then be displayed on a user interface of the computing device.

Embodiments relate to a vehicle, an apparatus, a method and a computer program for sharing sound data. The apparatus (10) for sharing sound data from a vehicle (100) comprises one or more interfaces (12) configured to communicate in a mobile communication system (300) and one or more microphones (16) configured to record sound data. The apparatus (10) further comprises a control module (14), which is configured to control the one or more interfaces (12) and the one or more microphones (12). The control module (14) is further configured to record sound samples using the one or more microphones (16), and to communicate information on the sound samples to another vehicle (200) using the one or more interfaces (12).

A driving system includes a central controller, a plurality of driving paths forming a least crossing position, and a plurality of autonomous driving devices configured to drive along at least one of the driving paths through the crossing position. The central controller is configured to determine a plurality of target driving devices from among the autonomous driving devices that are within a certain range of the crossing position, designate one of the target driving devices as a master driving device and the other of the target driving device as slave driving devices. The master driving device controls passage of the slave driving devices through the crossing position.

An example operation may include one or more of identifying a new condition of a transport during a transport event based on sensor data, retrieving a transport condition profile, comparing the new condition to an initial condition of the transport, stored prior to the transport event, in the transport condition profile, and determining the transport is damaged based on the comparing.

The invention relates to a technology for transversely and longitudinally guiding reversing of a commercial vehicle (100)during controlled parking and/or manoeuvring of the commercial vehicle (100) as a following vehicle in accordance with a leading vehicle (200) in the surroundings of the commercial vehicle (100). The commercial vehicle (100) comprises at least one sensor (102)and/or at least one data interface (104) for sensing data of the surroundings of the commercial vehicle (100), the sensed surroundings containing the commercial vehicle (100) and/or the leading vehicle (200). Alternatively or in addition, the commercial vehicle(100)comprises at least one data interface (104)for sensing a control instruction for transverse and longitudinal guidance from the leading vehicle (200)in the surroundings of the commercial vehicle (100). The commercial vehicle (100) also comprises a control unit (108)which is designed to control the transverse and longitudinal guidance of the reversing of the commercial vehicle (100) during controlled parking and/or manoeuvring of the commercial vehicle (100) depending on the sensed data ofthe surroundings and/or the sensed control instruction.

A method for performing wireless communication by a first device and a device for supporting same are provided. The method may comprise the steps of receiving a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH) from a second device; determining a physical sidelink feedback channel (PSFCH) resource associated with the PSSCH; and transmitting hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback to the second device on the PSFCH resource. Here, the PSFCH resource can be determined on the basis of a sub channel associated with the PSSCH, a slot associated with the PSSCH, a cast type of communication between the first device and the second device, an ID of the first device, and a source ID of the second device.
