APPARATUS FOR CONTROLLING AUTONOMOUS DRIVING AND METHOD THEREOF - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18353319 titled 'APPARATUS FOR CONTROLLING AUTONOMOUS DRIVING AND METHOD THEREOF
The abstract describes an autonomous driving control apparatus that can communicate with other vehicles to verify the presence of a detection vehicle based on specified conditions.
- Controller connected to communication device, sensor device, and memory storing instructions
- Transmits cross-check request to another vehicle upon detection of specified condition
- Identifies sensor device's operating state based on responses from other vehicle
- Determines presence of detection vehicle based on responses from other vehicle
Potential Applications: - Autonomous driving systems - Vehicle safety and collision avoidance technology - Traffic management and coordination systems
Problems Solved: - Enhances safety by verifying the presence of other vehicles on the road - Improves communication and coordination between autonomous vehicles
Benefits: - Increased safety on the road - Enhanced efficiency in autonomous driving systems - Improved traffic flow and coordination
Commercial Applications: Title: "Autonomous Vehicle Communication and Verification System" This technology can be used in autonomous vehicle systems for commercial transportation, ride-sharing services, and logistics companies. It can also be integrated into smart city infrastructure for traffic management and coordination.
Questions about Autonomous Driving Control Apparatus: 1. How does the apparatus determine the specified conditions for verifying the presence of a detection vehicle? The apparatus uses the sensor device to detect specific conditions that trigger the cross-check request to other vehicles.
2. What are the potential implications of this technology on the future of autonomous driving systems? This technology could significantly improve the safety and efficiency of autonomous driving systems, leading to widespread adoption and integration into various industries.
Original Abstract Submitted
An embodiment autonomous driving control apparatus includes a controller operatively connected to a communication device, a sensor device, and a memory storing instructions, wherein the controller is configured to execute the instructions stored in the memory to cause the autonomous driving control apparatus to transmit, using the communication device, a cross-check request for a detection vehicle or a host vehicle to another vehicle in response to detection of the detection vehicle satisfying a specified condition determined by the sensor device, identify an operating state of the sensor device based on a host vehicle existence response or a host vehicle absence response among responses received from the other vehicle in response to the cross-check request, and determine whether the detection vehicle is present based on a detection vehicle existence response or a detection vehicle absence response among the responses received from the other vehicle in response to the cross-check request.
