Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional vehicle control systems lack the ability to efficiently communicate and coordinate with various entities such as other vehicles, infrastructure, and personal devices without human intervention, limiting their autonomy and safety features.

Innovation Solution

A vehicle platform that includes a control system with modules for sensor data analysis, communication, and peer-to-peer interaction, enabling vehicles to share information and respond to their environment autonomously, and communicate with other vehicles, infrastructure, and personal devices without human intervention.

1Extent of automation

If conventional vehicle control systems are used, then the system structure is simple, but the ability to communicate and coordinate with various entities autonomously is limited

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveautonomous communication and coordination capabilityVSAvoidsystem structure complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Extent of automationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The vehicle control system is designed as a universal platform that can communicate with multiple types of entities (vehicles, infrastructure, personal devices) through standardized protocols. The control system integrates sensor data analysis, communication modules, and coordination functions into a single multi-functional architecture, allowing the same system to perform diverse autonomous communication tasks across different communication scenarios without requiring separate dedicated systems for each entity type.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Reliability

If real-time data sharing and coordinated responses are implemented, then vehicle autonomy and safety are enhanced, but the communication and coordination system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevehicle safetyVSAvoidcommunication and coordination system complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The communication and coordination system is segmented into distinct functional modules: sensor data acquisition modules, data analysis modules, communication modules for different entity types (vehicle-to-vehicle, vehicle-to-infrastructure, vehicle-to-device), and coordination control modules. Each module handles specific tasks independently, allowing real-time data sharing and coordinated responses to be implemented through modular integration rather than a monolithic complex system, thereby enhancing safety while managing complexity through structured decomposition.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation
