ORCHESTRATING VEHICLES AND REMOTE OPERATING CLIENTS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18053436 titled 'ORCHESTRATING VEHICLES AND REMOTE OPERATING CLIENTS

Simplified Explanation

The computer-implemented method described in the abstract involves orchestrating the operation of multiple vehicles by generating a single display image stream based on multiple image streams, each corresponding to a respective vehicle. The vehicles are controlled by a remote operating client, which can send vehicle operation instructions in response to the displayed image stream. These instructions are then transmitted to the vehicles to manipulate their operation.

  • Simplified Explanation:
 - Method for controlling multiple vehicles remotely using a single display image stream.
 - Remote operating client sends operation instructions based on the displayed image stream.
 - Instructions are transmitted to the vehicles to manipulate their operation.
      1. Potential Applications

        1. Unanswered Questions
        2. How does the technology ensure secure communication between the remote operating client and the vehicles?

The abstract does not provide details on the security measures implemented to protect communication between the remote operating client and the vehicles.

        1. What types of vehicles are compatible with this remote operation system?

The abstract does not specify the types of vehicles that can be controlled using this method, leaving room for further exploration into its compatibility with different vehicle models and types.


Original Abstract Submitted

A computer-implemented method for orchestrating operation of multiple vehicles includes generating a single display image stream based on multiple image streams, each image stream corresponding to a respective vehicle, the vehicles being assigned to be controlled by a remote operating client. The method further includes receiving, from the remote operating client, a vehicle operation instruction in response to the single display image stream being displayed by the remote operating client. The method further includes transmitting, to at least one vehicle from the multiple vehicles, the operation instruction to manipulate operation of the at least one vehicle.
