  • 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.
