VEHICLE COMMUNICATION AND NAVIGATION SYSTEMS FOR ROAD SAFETY - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17859045 titled 'VEHICLE COMMUNICATION AND NAVIGATION SYSTEMS FOR ROAD SAFETY
Simplified Explanation
- The patent application describes systems, methods, and apparatuses related to vehicle navigation systems. - The innovation involves a first vehicle detecting an environmental condition using a sensor and determining the certainty of the condition. - The first vehicle is in communication with a second vehicle that is expected to encounter the same condition. - The second vehicle is notified about the environmental condition detected by the first vehicle. - The second vehicle can then re-route or integrate the condition into its navigation map.
Original Abstract Submitted
Systems, methods, and apparatuses related to vehicle navigation systems are described. A first vehicle may encounter an environmental condition. The first vehicle may be in communication with a second vehicle having a route that is proximate the proximate condition. The first vehicle may detect an environmental condition using a sensor on the first vehicle and determine certainty of the environmental condition above a threshold. The second vehicle may be notified about the environmental condition detected by the first vehicle based on an expectation that the second vehicle may encounter the environmental condition. The second vehicle may re-route in response to the environmental condition, and/or integrate the environmental condition in the navigation map.
