This application provides a data processing method performed a computer device. The method includes: generating an initial predicted lane change acceleration corresponding to a target vehicle in a current lane; generating target predicted position information corresponding to the target vehicle according to a predicted lane change time duration taken for the target vehicle to change from the current lane to a target lane, the target lane being a lane to which the target vehicle is expected to change to; determining a target obstacle vehicle in the target lane and adjacent to the target vehicle according to the target predicted position information; determining, according to a predicted position relationship between the target obstacle vehicle and the target vehicle, a target predicted lane change acceleration; and controlling, according to the target predicted lane change acceleration, the target vehicle to change from the current lane to the target lane.

In various examples, a yield scenario may be identified for a first vehicle. A wait element is received that encodes a first path for the first vehicle to traverse a yield area and a second path for a second vehicle to traverse the yield area. The first path is employed to determine a first trajectory in the yield area for the first vehicle based at least on a first location of the first vehicle at a time and the second path is employed to determine a second trajectory in the yield area for the second vehicle based at least on a second location of the second vehicle at the time. To operate the first vehicle in accordance with a wait state, it may be determined whether there is a conflict between the first trajectory and the second trajectory, where the wait state defines a yielding behavior for the first vehicle.

An apparatus and method for controlling an automatic lane change of a vehicle in consideration of a speed limit are configured to obtain information about the speed limit of a road from map information including information about the speed limit of the road, and calculate a speed at which an automatic lane change function is operable based on the speed limit of the road. As a result, it is possible to control the automatic lane change of the vehicle while automatically complying with laws and/or regulations in consideration of the speed limit of the road.

A vehicular vision system includes an electronic control unit (ECU) disposed at a vehicle and including an image processor that processes image data captured by at least one camera of the vehicle. An under-trailer camera is disposed at an underside of a trailer hitched to the vehicle. The under-trailer camera has a field of view under the trailer that includes a ground surface under the trailer that is traveled over by the trailer. The under-trailer camera captures image data as the vehicle and trailer are moving. The ECU, responsive to processing of image data captured by the under-trailer camera, detects an object under the trailer and determines that the detected object under the trailer is greater than a threshold size. The ECU, responsive to determination that the detected object under the trailer is greater than the threshold size, generates an output.

Disclosed are an apparatus and a method for controlling a lane change using V2V communication information and an apparatus for calculating tendency information for the same. According to the apparatuses and the method, it is possible to improve safety when changing lanes by receiving diving information of drivers of other vehicles from communication modules of the other vehicles, generating tendency information of the drivers of the other vehicles on the basis of the driving information, and performing lane change control using the tendency information.

The traffic flow control method includes: receiving, by a traffic flow control device, traffic control request signaling sent by an in-vehicle device of a first vehicle, where the traffic control request signaling includes travel information of the first vehicle and a travel intention of the first vehicle; determining, by the traffic flow control device, traffic command signaling based on the traffic control request signaling and traffic control phase information of a target intersection, where the target intersection is an intersection through which the first vehicle is to pass; and sending, by the traffic flow control device, the traffic command signaling to the in-vehicle device of the first vehicle. The traffic flow control method, the traffic flow control device, the in-vehicle device, and the computer-readable storage medium in the internet of vehicles can help a vehicle in the internet of vehicles travel safely and efficiently at an intersection.

An apparatus for displaying a virtual lane may include: a processor to generate the virtual lane by converting lane information of a preceding vehicle into lane information viewed in a viewpoint of a host vehicle, in platooning, and a display to display the virtual lane.

Method and control unit for reducing a blind spot created by a field of view adjustment of a vehicle comprised presentational device intended to display objects outside a driver's direct field of vision. The method comprises: detecting the blind spot of the presentational device, based on signals received from at least one first sensor associated with the presentational device; adjusting at least one second sensor, not associated with the presentational device, in order to cover at least a part of the detected blind spot; and outputting information captured by the adjusted at least one second sensor.

An apparatus, method and computer program product are provided for predicting wrong-way-driving events. A WWD event defines an event in which a vehicle travels in a direction opposing a traffic direction designated for a portion of a road. In one example, the apparatus estimates a likelihood of portion of the road inducing a wrong-way-driving (WWD) event by using a machine learning model as a function of map data, sensor data, or a combination thereof. If the likelihood satisfies a threshold, the apparatus updates a map layer to indicate the WWD event at the portion of the road.

An apparatus for providing a notification of control authority transition in a vehicle is provided. The apparatus includes a speaker configured to output a sound notification, a vibration motor configured to output a vibration notification, and a control circuit configured to be electrically connected with the speaker and the vibration motor. The control circuit is configured to output a first notification using the speaker during a first time interval, when a situation to transfer control authority for the vehicle occurs, output a second notification using the speaker and the vibration motor during a second time interval, after the first time interval elapses, and output a third notification using the speaker and the vibration motor during a third time interval, after the second time interval elapses.
