VEHICLE SCHEDULING METHOD, APPARATUS AND SYSTEM
The present disclosure relates to a vehicle scheduling method, apparatus, and system. The method includes: repeatedly performing following steps according to a preset scheduling period: receiving travelling information acquired by a target vehicle; searching, according to a global path of the target vehicle, a topological map for a target directional path matching the travelling information; determining a right-of-way node sequence of the target vehicle according to the target directional path and a coverage range of the target vehicle, where the right-of-way node sequence includes multiple right-of-way nodes, and the right-of-way nodes are nodes on the topological map; and determining right-of-way nodes matching the global path in the right-of-way node sequence as target right-of-way nodes in a case that each of the right-of-way nodes in the right-of-way node sequence is in a vacant state, and sending the target right-of-way nodes to the target vehicle, so that the target vehicle travels according to a path indicated by the target right-of-way nodes.
METHODS AND APPARATUSES FOR DYNAMIC CLOUD-BASED VEHICLE DISPATCH
Upon report of an emergency incident, a system may dispatch one or more initial entities to respond to the incident and model an initial scene, based on the reported data. The system may further determine the availability of travel data, request available travel data and advise an entity of path feasibility. The system also determines availability of onsite data covering one or more locations associated with the incident and requests available onsite data. This data is used to update the scene model and determine additional necessary dispatches, data gathering, or both. Until additional data is determined to be no longer needed, the processor is configured to continue to: dispatch entities based on the updated scene model; determine the availability of additional onsite desired based on the updated scene model; request the new onsite data; and update the scene model based on any onsite data received responsive to any additional requests.
GLARE DETECTION SYSTEM AND METHODS FOR AUTOMATED VEHICULAR CONTROL
Aspects of the present disclosure describe systems, methods, and devices for automated vehicular control based on glare detected by an optical system of a vehicle. In some aspects, automated control includes controlling the operation of the vehicle itself, a vehicle subsystem, or a vehicle component based on a level of glare detected. According to some examples, controlling the operation of a vehicle includes instructing an automatically or manually operated vehicle to traverse a selected route based on levels of glare detected or expected along potentials routes to a destination. According to other examples, controlling operation of a vehicle subsystem or a vehicle component includes triggering automated responses by the subsystem or the component based on a level of glare detected or expected. In some additional aspects, glare data is shared between individual vehicles and with a remote data processing system for further analysis and action.
METHOD BY WHICH V2X VEHICLE TRANSMITS VIRTUAL V2X MESSAGE IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM SUPPORTING SIDELINK, AND DEVICE THEREFOR
Disclosed are a method by which a V2X vehicle transmits a virtual V2X message in a wireless communication system supporting a sidelink according to various embodiments, and a device therefor, the method comprising: a step for periodically receiving a first message including first vulnerable road user (VRU) information on a first VRU from a network; a step for determining a state of the first VRU on the basis of the first VRU information, and determining whether to convert the first message to the virtual V2X message on the basis of the state of the first VRU; and a step for transmitting the virtual V2X message including the first VRU information, wherein the V2X vehicle converts the first message into the virtual V2X message when the first VRU state changes from a first state to a second state on the basis of the periodically received first message.
Systems and methods for using a distributed data center to create map data
This disclosure relates to a distributed data center that includes resources carried by a fleet of vehicles. The system includes sensors configured to generate output signals conveying information related to the vehicles and/or the surroundings of vehicles. The system includes a remote computing server configured to maintain map data and distribute it to the fleet, including local map data to individual vehicles pertaining to their surroundings.
