Abstract
Among other things, an equipment for use on board a first ground transportation entity has (a) a receiver for information generated by a sensor of the environment of the first ground transportation entity, (b) a processor, and (c) a memory storing instructions executable by the processor to generate and send safety message information to a second ground transportation entity based on the information generated by the sensor.
Claims9
An apparatus comprising:
- an equipment on board a first ground transportation entity, the equipment having
- (a) a receiver for information generated by a sensor of an environment of the first ground transportation entity;
- (b) at least one processor;
- and
- (c) a memory storing instructions executable by the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:
- based at least on the information generated by the sensor, detecting a second ground transportation entity in a vicinity of the first ground transportation entity;
- based on detecting the second ground transportation entity, generating (i) a prediction of a future change in motion of the first ground transportation entity, and (ii) a prediction of a future time at which the predicted future change in motion will occur;
- generating a safety message, the safety message comprising the prediction of the future change in motion and the prediction of the future time;
- and
- sending the safety message to a third ground transportation entity.
