Blueprint overview/Introduction
...
UseCases | value proposition |
Smarter Navigation | Real-time traffic information update, reduces the latency from minutes to seconds, figure out the most efficient way for drivers. |
Safe Drive Improvement | Figure out the potential risks which can NOT be seen by the driver. |
Reduce traffic violation | Let the driver understand the traffic rule in some specific area. For instance, change the line prior to a narrow street, avoiding the opposite way drive in the one-way road, avoiding car pool lane when a single driver and so on. |
Cooperative vehicle and infrastructure system | Real time road objects status is obtained by roadside sensing system. Based on the sensing data, the vehicle obtains the traffic warning and driving assistance informationwhich threatens itself. |
...
Test case: The roadside camera recognizes the vehicles and pedestrians on the road through the edge computing server, and then pushes the pedestrian warning to the host vehicle (blue vehicle) .
Overall application Architecture
The following picture depicts the application architecture of the Connect Vehicle Blueprint, which consists of the following key components:
- Commodity Hardware, Arm/X86 Physical Server.
- Virtualization Layer.
- Tars Microservice Platform layer.
- Connected Vehicle Applications layer.
Connected Vehicle Applications include roadside traffic situation monitoring, driving risk assessment, road event perception, high percision positioning, and so on.
