Systems and methods to form remote vehicular micro clouds

A system for remote vehicular cloud formation, comprising:

• a communication circuit configured to exchange communications between the system and members of a vehicular micro cloud;
• a memory storing instructions;
• and
• one or more processors communicably coupled to the memory and configured to execute the instructions to:
• receive a request to form a vehicular micro cloud from a client device, the request comprising an identification of a target geographic area and information defining a task to be executed by the vehicular micro cloud in the target geographic area, wherein the client device is remote from the target geographic area;
• responsive to receiving the request to form the vehicular micro cloud from the client device, communicate with a plurality of vehicles within the target geographic area to collectively form a vehicular micro cloud at the target geographic area;
• receive resource data from the plurality of vehicles, the resource data comprising detection results of an environment of the target geographic area based on sensor sets of the plurality of vehicles;
• and
• transmit the resource data to the client device.

A non-transitory machine-readable medium having instructions stored therein, which when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations, the operations comprising:

• receiving a request to form a remote vehicular micro cloud from a client device, the request comprising an identification of a target geographic region that is geographically remote from the client device and information defining a task to be executed by the remote vehicular micro cloud;
• in response to receiving the request, selecting one or more geographic locations within the target geographic region;
• establishing one or more remote vehicular micro clouds at the one or more geographic locations by communicating with at least one of one or more roadside equipment and one or more vehicles within a defined area from each of the one or more geographic locations;
• generating a detection result related to the task included in the request based on resource data received from the at least one of one or more roadside equipment and one or more vehicles;
• and
• transmit the detection results to the client device.
