Abstract

See full text

Systems, methods, and apparatuses described herein are directed to sharing vehicle obstacle data between vehicles and/or between vehicles and a central server. Vehicles may include sensors capturing data including, but not limited to, speed, direction, acceleration, deceleration, LIDAR data, RADAR data, SONAR data, camera data, GPS data, etc. In some implementations, acceleration of a vehicle above a threshold, such as braking or swerving, may trigger the transmission of sensor data to other vehicles and/or infrastructure devices. Vehicles that receive the transmitted data may determine a validity of the data, and may incorporate the data into operations of the receiving vehicle based at least in part on the validity of the data. Validity of the data may be based on sensor type, elapsed time or distance between detection of an obstacle or event and reception of data, a number of retransmissions, duplicative data, independent sources of data, etc.
