11485377 · 2022-11-01 ·

The disclosure includes embodiments for vehicular cooperative perception for identifying a subset of connected vehicles from a plurality to aid a pedestrian. In some embodiments, a method includes analyzing pedestrian data to determine a scenario depicted by the pedestrian data and a subset of the connected vehicles from the plurality that have a clearest line of the pedestrian. The method includes identifying a group of conflicted vehicles from the subset whose driving paths conflict with a walking path of the pedestrian. The method includes determining, based on the scenario, digital twin data describing a digital twin simulation that corresponds to the scenario. The method includes determining, based on the digital twin data and the pedestrian data, a group of modified driving paths for the group of conflicted vehicles. The method includes causing the group of conflicted vehicles to travel in accordance with the group of modified driving paths.

Interactive content can be managed and provided to occupants of an automated vehicle to enhance their experience while in the vehicle. Orchestrator component can determine interactive content based on conditions associated with the vehicle, user preferences, video content, or other information. Interactive content can comprise video content, audio content, and control content. Video content can comprise augmented reality or virtual reality content. Control content can be used to control vehicle operation in relation to or synchronization with presentation of video content. Orchestrator component can correlate between certain roads on which the vehicle can travel and entertainment presentations presented to a vehicle occupant. Orchestrator component can control vehicle operation to have the vehicle recreate a vehicle action sequence (VAS) in a video program being presented to the occupant in the vehicle. Orchestrator component can notify nearby vehicles when VAS is be recreated, or another vehicle also can participate in VAS.

METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PROVIDING ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE ANALYTIC (AIA) SERVICES FOR PERFORMANCE PREDICTION

One embodiment of the present invention predicts a vehicular event relating to machinal performance using information obtained from interior and exterior sensors, vehicle onboard computer (“VOC”), and cloud data. The process of predication is able to activate interior and exterior sensors mounted on a vehicle operated by a driver for obtaining current data relating to external surroundings, interior settings, and internal mechanical conditions of the vehicle. After forwarding the current data to VOC to generate a current vehicle status representing real-time vehicle performance in accordance with the current data, retrieving a historical data associated with the vehicle including mechanical condition is retrieved. In one aspect, a normal condition signal is issued when the current vehicle status does not satisfy with the optimal condition based on the historical data. Alternatively, a race car condition is issued when the current vehicle status meets with the optimal condition.
