A vehicle communication, power, and guidance system for use in guiding and communicating with a land vehicle along a roadway, the system comprising: one or more reference devices positioned along the roadway, each of the reference devices further comprising: a memory device for storing fixed values for one or more vehicle and traffic related parameters; and one or more transmission modules for transmitting said fixed values for one or more vehicle and traffic related parameters; a vehicle mounted device comprising: a receiving module for receiving transmitted signals from the transmission module of said reference devices; and a processing module for processing the received signals and a transmitter module to transmitting signals to the reference device to communicate with one or more controllers of the vehicle to guide and control movement of the vehicle along the roadway.

Disclosed is an obstacle detection system of a vehicle. The obstacle detection system includes a driving information unit configured to calculate driving position information of the vehicle, a determiner configured to anticipate whether or not the vehicle will enter a joining point where the vehicle meets a target road to be joined based on the driving position information calculated by the driving information unit, a sensing unit configured to sense obstacles located beside the vehicle, and a controller configured to change a sensing range of the sensing unit so as to detect an obstacle moving on the target road to be joined, when the determiner anticipates that the vehicle will enter the joining point.

The present disclosure relates to a method for which a road area is divided into multiple resources and a storage device for reservation data for exclusively reserving the respective resource is provided that is made available to each road user. A control circuit of a respective road user plans a respective movement route over at least one of the resources on the basis of reservation data currently stored in the storage device and takes the planned movement route as a basis for reserving the resources required therefor by generating its own reservation data in the storage device.

The control apparatus (200) is an apparatus that controls the travel of a target vehicle (10). The control apparatus (200) detects a partial object (20) using a sensor. The partial object (20) is a part of an object riding on the target vehicle (10) and is jutting outside the target vehicle (10). Furthermore, the control apparatus (200) outputs information (travel information) relating to travel of the target vehicle (10) based on the detected partial object (20). For example, the travel information is control information for travel control of the target vehicle (10) and notification information indicating information relating to the partial object (20).

A head-up display system for a vehicle includes at least one light source adapted to project an image upon an inner surface of a windshield of the vehicle, a driver monitoring system adapted to track a position of a driver's eyes, at least one non-visual sensor adapted to detect objects within an environment surrounding the vehicle, at least one image capturing device adapted to capture images of the environment surrounding the vehicle, and, a controller in communication with the at least one laser, the at least one non-visual sensor and the at least one image capturing device, the controller adapted to identify lane markers and objects within the environment surrounding the vehicle, determine the position of the vehicle within a lane of a roadway the vehicle is traveling upon, and, display, with the at least one light source, a lane position alert.

A traffic information processing equipment, system and method. The traffic information processing equipment includes an image recognition and decision device and a warning device. The image recognition and decision device is configured to process a received traffic route image to identify a scene, and determine whether to perform a warning operation according to the scene to obtain a determination result. The warning device is configured to generate warning information according to the determination result for sending prompt information to vehicles in a traffic route.

A vehicle abnormality monitoring method includes starting, by a vehicle, a monitoring device to record a first video when detecting an abnormal event; determining a roadside device in an area where the vehicle is located; and sending, to the roadside device, a monitoring request requesting the roadside device to record a second video of the abnormal event, where the first video and the second video are configured to trace the abnormal event.

In an aspect of the disclosure, methods, a computer-readable media, and apparatus are provided. A method for wireless communication includes detecting a first object using one or more sensors. The method includes receiving one or more messages from one or more second devices indicating detection of one or more second objects. The one or more messages indicating information about the one or more second objects. The method further includes selecting information about the first object to report in a message to one or more third devices based on whether the first object corresponds to at least one object of the one or more second objects in the one or more messages.

A positioning method includes: obtaining traffic control information indicative of transmission of a traffic control indication granting permission for vehicle motion, or permission for pedestrian motion, or a combination thereof and determining, based on the traffic control information, position-related information including a location of a user equipment (UE), a heading of the UE, or a combination thereof.

Methods, apparatuses, systems and computer program products are disclosed to estimate road surface temperature for a geographic location. Reference ambient sensor data indicative of ambient conditions in vicinity to mobile vehicles are retrieved. Reference roadside sensor data indicative of at least road surface temperature in vicinity to distributed roadside sensors are retrieved. A relationship is established between the reference ambient sensor data and road surface temperature, based on the reference ambient sensor data and based on the reference roadside sensor data. A data structure is created, encoding the established relationship. Further, current vehicle ambient sensor data, indicative of current ambient conditions in vicinity to the one or more vehicles, are collected at one or more vehicles. Finally, a road surface temperature estimate is determined for the geographic location, using the data structure and using the collected current vehicle ambient sensor data.
