Method and apparatus for perception-sharing between vehicles

A method for perception-sharing between similarly-situated vehicles that are traveling on a portion of a roadway that is equipped with an intelligent vehicle highway system is described, and includes executing, in a multi-access edge computing cluster in communication with a roadside unit disposed to monitor a roadway, an application-layer routine. The application-layer routine includes collecting real-time data associated with a plurality of objects from each of the similarly-situated vehicles, predicting motion of each of the plurality of objects based upon the real-time data, object-matching the motion of each of the plurality of objects, and executing fusion of the plurality of objects based upon the object-matching of the motion of each of the plurality of objects. Locations of the similarly-situated vehicles traveling on the roadway are identified based upon the fusion of the plurality of objects. The locations are communicated to one of the similarly-situated vehicles.

Warning system and method for two-wheeled vehicle

A warning system and method are provided. The warning system includes a plurality of sensing apparatuses and a server. The sensing apparatuses are used for sensing a driving trajectory of each of a plurality of two-wheeled vehicles. The server compares the driving trajectories with an accident hotspot list to determine whether at least one first driving trajectory matches an accident hotspot location, wherein the accident hotspot list is generated by a plurality of driving behavior events corresponding to each of the two-wheeled vehicles. The server generates a warning message to remind a first driver of a first two-wheeled vehicle corresponding to the at least one first driving trajectory when determining that the at least one first driving trajectory matches the accident hotspot location.

Methods of CD40 activation and immune checkpoint blockade

Provided herein are methods and compositions for treating cancer in an individual comprising administering to the individual an effective amount of at least one immune checkpoint inhibitor and a chimeric CD 154 polypeptide. Also provided herein are methods of enhanced immune function.

Method and apparatus for enhancing driver situational awareness

Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, determining, by a system comprising a processor, a driver profile according to a driver identity for a driver of a vehicle, selecting a driver-specific enforcement scenario for the vehicle according to the driver profile and traffic enforcement information that is associated with a vehicle location, and presenting an in-vehicle alert to convey the driver-specific enforcement scenario to the driver. Other embodiments are disclosed.

METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CONTROLLING AN AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE
20180004223 · 2018-01-04 ·

Aspects of the disclosure relate generally to controlling an autonomous vehicle in a variety of unique circumstances. These include adapting control strategies of the vehicle based on discrepancies between map data and sensor data obtained by the vehicle. These further include adapting position and routing strategies for the vehicle based on changes in the environment and traffic conditions. Other aspects of the disclosure relate to using vehicular sensor data to update hazard information on a centralized map database. Other aspects of the disclosure relate to using sensors independent of the vehicle to compensate for blind spots in the field of view of the vehicular sensors. Other aspects of the disclosure involve communication with other vehicles to indicate that the autonomous vehicle is not under human control, or to give signals to other vehicles about the intended behavior of the autonomous vehicle.

METHOD FOR PERFORMING A REAL TIME ANALYSIS OF TRAFFIC LIGHT RELATED DATA
20180012486 · 2018-01-11 · ·

A method is described for performing a real time analysis of traffic flow control device related data using a plurality of vehicles connected in at least one vehicle cell network. The method compares position data from vehicles defining a traffic flow with received data for a traffic flow control device and geometry and topology data concerning a transport engineering construction related to the traffic flow control device to evaluate if a discrepancy can be detected between the geometry and topology data concerning the transport engineering construction and the traffic flow defined by the vehicles positions. The method may be used for updating and/or finding errors in the geometry and topology data concerning the transport engineering construction.

METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR MAINTAINING A DATABASE COMPRISING REPORTED TRAFFIC-AFFECTING EVENTS
20180012493 · 2018-01-11 · ·

A method performed by a database managing system for maintaining a database comprising reported traffic-affecting events is provided. The system derives a position of a first vehicle supporting detection of vehicle surroundings and determines by comparing the vehicle position to positions of reported traffic-affecting events comprised in the database, that the first vehicle is approaching at least a first traffic-affecting event. The system prompts the first vehicle to attempt to detect the first traffic-affecting event, which prompting comprises providing to the first vehicle an expected position of the first traffic-affecting event. The system receives a response from the first vehicle, which response indicates whether or not the expected position was at least partly unobstructedly observable by the first vehicle. The response further indicates—if the expected position was at least partly unobstructedly observable—whether or not the first traffic-affecting event was at least partly detected by the first vehicle.

Systems and methods for preventing an operation of a car application that reduces a quality of service of a computer system of a vehicle

A method for preventing an operation of a car application that causes a quality of service of an operation of a computer system of a vehicle to be reduced below a threshold can include receiving, from a separate source, a value indicative of the quality of service of the operation of the computer system during the operation of the car application in conjunction with the operation of the computer system. The method can include determining an existence of a condition. The condition can be that the value is less than the threshold. The method can include causing, in response to a determination of a lack of the condition, the car application to be in a condition to be operated on the vehicle. The method can include preventing, in response to a determination of the existence of the condition, the car application from being in the condition to be operated.
