Abstract: A mobility service providing method and apparatus are provided. The method includes: moving, by a vehicle, to a customer when the customer requests the vehicle to provide a mobility service and forming, by one or more anchors mounted on the vehicle, an Ultra-Wide Band (UWB) link with an information technology (IT) device carried by the customer when a determination is made that a distance between the vehicle and the customer is within a predetermined distance; performing a smart anchor positioning (SAP) algorithm to estimate a position of the IT device; performing position-based security authentication with the customer; and arriving, by the vehicle, at the customer, wherein the one or more anchors and the IT device transmit or receive UWB pulse waves.

Abstract: A position estimation method is performed by a position estimation apparatus, wherein the position estimation method includes switching from a UWB static domain to a UWB dynamic domain when a startup state of a vehicle is switched from OFF to ON; operating one or more anchors mounted on the vehicle; and estimating a position of a tag by performing at least one of an advanced trilateration measurement (ATM) algorithm and a smart anchor positioning (SAP) algorithm, wherein the one or more anchors and the tag transmit and receive ultra wideband (UWB) pulse waves.

Abstract: A vehicle includes a user interface; and a controller configured to determine a predicted place where an image is predicted to have been captured according to an output of a place prediction neural network for the image selected by a user, and control the user interface to perform a route guide to the predicted place, wherein the place prediction neural network is learned from an image tagged with place information.

Abstract: An airbag system includes a seat belt; at least one airbag disposed in at least a portion of the seat belt; and an inflator connected to the at least one airbag and supplying gas to the airbag so that the airbag is inflatable.

Abstract: A smart anchor-based position estimation method and apparatus are disclosed. The position estimation method, performed by a position estimation apparatus, includes: identifying one or more line-of-sight (LOS) anchors from among one or more anchors mounted in a vehicle; selecting reference anchors from among the one or more LOS anchors; and estimating a position of a tag based on a number of the reference anchors. The reference anchors are selected based on a rate of formation of an ultra-wideband (UWB) link to the tag and accuracy of the estimated position of the tag.

Abstract: A method and apparatus of platooning using Ultra Wideband (UWB)-based security authentication is provided. The platooning method performed by a platoon leader vehicle includes: selecting three coordinates present in a path along which the platoon leader vehicle moves, using an Ultra WideBand (UWB) sensor mounted on the platoon leader vehicle; determining a location of a surrounding vehicle using the three coordinates and an estimated distance between the UWB sensor and the surrounding vehicle; performing mutual authentication with the surrounding vehicle, based on the location of the surrounding vehicle; and performing platooning by including the surrounding vehicle in one or more platoon follower vehicles, when the mutual authentication is successful, wherein each of the platoon leader vehicle and the one or more platoon follower vehicles is provided with one or more UWB sensors.
