A traffic control system includes an identification unit (234) that identifies a vehicle falling under a predetermined condition that has been set, a position control unit (235) that sets a relative position between the vehicle identified and a surrounding vehicle around the vehicle based on a relative distance between the vehicle and the surrounding vehicle, and a control unit (230) that generates control information for controlling movement of the vehicle according to the set relative position.

Systems, methods, and devices are disclosed for predicting behaviors of objects (vehicles, bicycles, pedestrians, etc.) at a location. A model descriptive of a possible object behavior can be received by an autonomous vehicle, where the model provides conditional predictions about a future behavior of an object based on a position of the object in a lane. The autonomous vehicle can detect the position of a specific object in the lane, and the model can then be applied to determine probabilities of a future behavior of the specific object.

A backend for a hazard detection system comprising: a processor; and a memory in communication with the processor, the memory storing a set of instructions. The set of instructions, when accessed and executed by the processor, cause the processor to: receive vehicle and/or driver data from a vehicle, evaluate the received vehicle and/or driver data, use the evaluation as a basis for detecting a hazard in road traffic, and send the information about the detected hazard to at least one vehicle to warn said vehicle about the hazard.

A method of warning target objects (TOs) of an approaching reference object (RO) includes receiving, by a back-situation awareness function (BSAF) application, RO notification (RON) messages from the RO containing RO related state information, generating, by the BSAF application, a geo-sector (GS) area including a number of GS segments between a current location of the RO and a destination object (DO) specifying a destination location of the RO, calculating, by the BSAF application, for each of the GS segments of the GS area an expected time of arrival (ETA) of the RO at a respective one of the GS segments, and disseminating the calculated GS segment specific ETA values to the TOs.

Provided is an apparatus for providing obstacle information and reliability information to vehicle based on information received from roadside units. The apparatus includes a communication module that receives obstacle information from multiple roadside units, each roadside unit including multiple sensors for detecting obstacles within a predetermined field of view. A reliability judgement unit in the apparatus determines a reliability of the received obstacle information to output a reliability value based on a number of roadside units detecting a same obstacle, a number of sensor of one roadside unit detecting a same obstacle, and a difference value of detection of the same obstacle between different roadside units or different sensors.

A system for improving transportation infrastructure includes a network access device to receive vehicle behavior data from multiple vehicles, the vehicle behavior data corresponding to at least one of driver-controlled vehicle behavior or autonomous vehicle behavior and including at least one of vehicle locations associated with the vehicle behavior data or infrastructure data indicating features of infrastructure associated with the vehicle behavior data. The system further includes a memory to store the vehicle behavior data including the at least one of the vehicle locations or the infrastructure data. The system further includes a processor to perform an analysis of the vehicle behavior data and the at least one of the vehicle locations or the infrastructure data and to identify an improvement to the transportation infrastructure to at least one of reduce traffic, increase driver comfort, or increase safety based on the analysis.

To provide a demand arbitration apparatus, a vehicle, and a demand arbitration system which can suppress that the travel routes of each vehicle are different with each other, when a plurality of vehicles of a vehicle group travel to a common destination. A demand arbitration apparatus manages a vehicle group which grouped a plurality of vehicles; sets a common destination of the vehicle group; and generates a travel route from the current position of each belonging vehicle to the common destination so that the travel route of each belonging vehicle overlaps with each other, and transmits to each belonging vehicle.

Embodiments of this application disclose a dynamic information obtaining method and a related device thereof, and may be applied to the field of artificial intelligence. The method includes: A first enabler server obtains information about an enabler client in a target area of a target client; and the first enabler server sends a first message to the enabler client, where the first message is used for the enabler client reporting first information. The first information includes local dynamic information of the enabler client, and the first information is used for obtaining dynamic information associated with the target client.

The present disclosure relates to a vehicle control device provided in a vehicle and a method of controlling the vehicle. A vehicle control device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may include a communication unit formed to acquire the location information of the vehicle and perform communication with at least one of an external server and another vehicle, a sensing unit configured to sense information associated with the vehicle, and a processor configured to control the communication unit to receive map information from the external server and the location information of the another vehicle from the another vehicle, wherein the processor merges the acquired location information of the vehicle and the received location information of the another vehicle into the received map information to control the vehicle based on at least one of the merged map information and the information associated with the vehicle sensed through the sensing unit.

A connected-vehicle interface module is provided that includes a connected-vehicle controller, a wireless data connected-vehicle radio for receiving an activation signal indicating a road condition, and a connected-vehicle interface controller. The connected-vehicle interface controller including a microcontroller and a plurality of universal asynchronous receiver transmitters for receiving, transmitting, and processing data received by at least one of the connected-vehicle controller and the connected-vehicle radio, and communicated to the microcontroller via one or more wired connections; a memory device for storing program data, a transceiver and one or more communication ports, coupled to the microcontroller, for connection and communication with a connected vehicle road side unit, wherein the activation signal is communicated to the connected vehicle road side unit via the one or more communication ports, and at least one operator interface in communication with at least one of the connected-vehicle radio, the connected-vehicle interface controller, and the connected-vehicle controller.
