  • Publication number: 20190302275
    Abstract: Provided are a vehicle positioning method, an apparatus and a device. The method includes: sending an auxiliary positioning request to an auxiliary positioning device within a preset distance range; receiving an auxiliary positioning message returned by the auxiliary positioning device with respect to the auxiliary positioning request, where the auxiliary positioning message carries location information of the auxiliary positioning device; and determining a current location of a current vehicle according to the location information of the auxiliary positioning device and distance information between the current vehicle and the auxiliary positioning device. The method of the present disclosure can implement vehicle positioning without a satellite positioning signal. The vehicle positioning can be performed when the vehicle is blocked by an obstacle such as a tunnel, a building and the satellite positioning signal cannot be received, improving the accuracy of the vehicle positioning.

  • Publication number: 20190202476
    Abstract: Provided are a method, an apparatus and a device for obstacle in lane warning. The method includes receiving information of an obstacle in a front lane of a first vehicle, where the first vehicle is in front of a second vehicle; and performing an obstacle warning on the second vehicle according to the information of the obstacle. The second vehicle receives the information of the obstacle, and performs the obstacle warning on the second vehicle according to the information of the obstacle to prevent the second vehicle from failing to detect the obstacle in a blind area when the sight of the second vehicle is blocked by the first vehicle; the front vehicle notifies the subsequent vehicle of the obstacle in the lane immediately, which facilitates the driver to handle the situation in advance, improves the vehicle's ability to sense the obstacle and prevents the collision from occurring.

  • Publication number: 20190206236
    Abstract: Provided are a method, an apparatus and a device for controlling a cooperative intersection. The method includes: receiving a passage request for intersection transmitted by a first vehicle, the passage request for intersection comprises vehicle information of the first vehicle; transmitting a traffic directing instruction to the first vehicle according to the vehicle information of the first vehicle to cause the first vehicle pass the intersection according to the traffic directing instruction. The passage request for intersection of the host vehicle is received through a traffic control unit, and a traffic directing instruction is transmitted to the host vehicle according to the vehicle information of the host vehicle in the intersection request. The traffic directing instruction is transmitted through V2X communication, which can finely direct the driving lane, follow-up driving, passage time, stop time and stop location for each vehicle, thereby making the intersection traffic safer and more efficient.
