METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR RECOGNIZING EMERGENCY VEHICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18321453 titled 'METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR RECOGNIZING EMERGENCY VEHICLE
Simplified Explanation
The present disclosure describes a method and apparatus for recognizing an emergency vehicle using sensors and projection devices to indicate the approach of the vehicle and provide an avoidance route for other vehicles on the road.
- The apparatus includes a processor and memory to store instructions for recognizing an emergency vehicle and road conditions.
- The processor controls sensors to detect the emergency vehicle and road conditions, determines an avoidance location for vehicles to move away from the emergency vehicle, and provides an avoidance route for safe navigation.
- Projection devices are used to display symbols indicating the approach of the emergency vehicle or the avoidance route to other drivers on the road.
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in autonomous vehicles, traffic management systems, and emergency response vehicles to improve safety and efficiency on the road.
Problems Solved
This technology helps prevent accidents involving emergency vehicles by providing clear indications and safe routes for other vehicles to avoid collisions.
Benefits
The benefits of this technology include enhanced road safety, reduced traffic congestion, and improved coordination between emergency vehicles and other drivers.
Potential Commercial Applications
Potential commercial applications of this technology include integration into vehicle navigation systems, traffic control centers, and emergency vehicle fleets to enhance overall road safety and efficiency.
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art for this technology could be existing systems that use sensors and projection devices in vehicles for various purposes, such as parking assistance or lane departure warnings.
Unanswered Questions
1. How does the system differentiate between different types of emergency vehicles, such as ambulances, fire trucks, and police cars? 2. What measures are in place to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the avoidance routes provided by the system?
Original Abstract Submitted
The present disclosure provides a method and an apparatus for recognizing an emergency vehicle. An apparatus for recognizing an emergency vehicle is provided, including a processor; and a memory configured to store at least one instruction executed by the processor. The processor is configured to control at least one or more sensors to recognize an approach of the emergency vehicle and a road condition, to determine an first avoidance location that is a location for an first car to move away from the emergency vehicle based on the road condition, to provide a first avoidance route that is a route for the first cat to move from a current location to the first avoidance location, and to control at least one projection device to project at least one of a first symbol indicating the approaching of the emergency vehicle or the first avoidance route.
