INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, VEHICLE, AND NON-TRANSITORY STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18544729 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, VEHICLE, AND NON-TRANSITORY STORAGE MEDIUM
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes an information processing apparatus on a vehicle that can perform driving assist control and notification control based on information received from other vehicles or a server.
- Controller capable of driving assist control and notification control
- Utilizes vehicle-to-vehicle communication for driving assist control
- Utilizes server communication for notification control
- Does not perform driving assist control when receiving information from a server
- Enhances safety and awareness on the road
Key Features and Innovation
- Integration of driving assist control and notification control on a vehicle-mounted information processing apparatus
- Utilization of vehicle-to-vehicle communication for driving assist control
- Utilization of server communication for notification control
- Ability to differentiate between information received from other vehicles and a server
Potential Applications
The technology can be applied in various vehicles to enhance safety and awareness on the road by providing real-time information about other vehicles' travel states.
Problems Solved
The technology addresses the need for improved driving assist systems that can utilize information from other vehicles to enhance safety and awareness on the road.
Benefits
- Enhanced safety on the road
- Improved awareness of surrounding vehicles
- Real-time information sharing for better decision-making
Commercial Applications
The technology can be used in the automotive industry to develop advanced driving assist systems that can communicate with other vehicles and servers to improve road safety and awareness.
Questions about the Technology
How does the technology differentiate between information received from other vehicles and a server?
The technology likely uses different communication protocols or identifiers to distinguish between data received from other vehicles and a server.
What are the potential limitations of relying on vehicle-to-vehicle communication for driving assist control?
One potential limitation could be the range and reliability of the communication signal between vehicles, which may vary depending on environmental factors.
Original Abstract Submitted
An information processing apparatus mounted on a vehicle includes a controller configured to be capable of performing driving assist control and notification control. In a case where the vehicle receives another-vehicle information including information about a travel state of another vehicle from another vehicle by vehicle-to-vehicle communication, the controller performs the driving assist control based on the another-vehicle information. Furthermore, in a case where the vehicle receives the another-vehicle information not by vehicle-to-vehicle communication but from a server apparatus that performs communication with another vehicle, the controller performs the notification control based on the another-vehicle information without performing the driving assist control based on the another-vehicle information.
