Abstract
A system for a three-dimensional reproduction of an off-road vehicle can include camera modules, sensors, interface circuitry, processing circuitry, and memory; the sensor can collect vehicle data and map data; the processing circuitry can adjust the vehicle data and the map data; the processing circuitry can graphically reproduce the off-road vehicle by the adjusted vehicle data and the adjusted map data, and the reproduction is in a three-dimensional representation.
Claims17
A method of reproducing a first off-road vehicle, comprising:
- collecting, by one or more sensors of the first off-road vehicle and one or more sensors of a second off-road vehicle, vehicle data and map data;
- adjusting, by processing circuitry, the vehicle data and the map data;
- graphically reproducing the first off-road vehicle and the second off-road vehicle based at least in part on the adjusted vehicle data and the adjusted map data, the reproduction of the first off-road vehicle and the second off-road vehicle being a three-dimensional representation;
- and
- providing the reproduction of the first off-road vehicle as a three-dimensional representation to a driver of a second vehicle, and providing the reproduction of the second off-road vehicle as a three-dimensional representation to a driver of the first vehicle, wherein the driver of the second vehicle is different from a driver of the first off-road vehicle,
- wherein the driver of the first vehicle observes a first performance of the second off-road vehicle on a display device within the first vehicle based on the reproduction being in the three-dimensional representation based at least in part on the adjusted data collected by the sensors of the second off-road vehicle, and
- wherein the driver of the second vehicle observes a first performance of the first off-road vehicle on a display device within the second vehicle based on the reproduction being in the three-dimensional representation based at least in part on the adjusted data collected by the sensors of the first off-road vehicle.
A system for reproducing a first off-road vehicle, comprising processing circuitry configured to:
- collect, by one or more sensors of the first off-road vehicle and one or more sensors of a second off-road vehicle, vehicle data and map data;
- adjust the vehicle data and the map data;
- graphically reproduce the first off-road vehicle and the second off-road vehicle by the adjusted vehicle data and the adjusted map data, the reproduction of the first off-road vehicle and the second off-road vehicle being a three-dimensional representation;
- and
- providing the reproduction of the first off-road vehicle as a three-dimensional representation to a driver of a second vehicle and providing the reproduction of the second off-road vehicle as a three-dimensional representation to a driver of the first vehicle, wherein the driver of the second vehicle is different from a driver of the first off-road vehicle,
- wherein the driver of the first vehicle observes a first performance of the second off-road vehicle on a display device within the first vehicle based on the reproduction being in the three-dimensional representation based at least in part on the adjusted data collected by the sensors of the second off-road vehicle, and
- wherein the driver of the second vehicle observes a first performance of the first off-road vehicle on a display device within the second vehicle based on the reproduction being in the three-dimensional representation based at least in part on the adjusted data collected by the sensors of the first off-road vehicle.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium having instructions stored thereon that when executed by processing circuitry causes the processing circuitry to perform a method, the method comprising:
- collecting, by a sensor of a first off-road vehicle and a sensor of a second off-road vehicle, vehicle data and map data;
- adjusting the vehicle data and the map data;
- graphically reproducing the first off-road vehicle and the second off-road vehicle by the adjusted vehicle data and the adjusted map data, the reproduction of the first off-road vehicle and the second off-road vehicle being a three-dimensional representation;
- and
- providing the reproduction of the first off-road vehicle as a three-dimensional representation to a driver of a second vehicle and providing the reproduction of the second off-road vehicle as a three-dimensional representation to a driver of the first vehicle, wherein the driver of the second vehicle is different from a driver of the first off-road vehicle,
- wherein the driver of the first vehicle observes a first performance of the second off-road vehicle on a display device within the first vehicle based on the reproduction being in the three-dimensional representation based at least in part on the adjusted data collected by the sensors of the second off-road vehicle, and
- wherein the driver of the second vehicle observes a first performance of the first off-road vehicle on a display device within the second vehicle based on the reproduction being in the three-dimensional representation based at least in part on the adjusted data collected by the sensors of the first off-road vehicle.
