  • Patent number: 12207167
    Abstract: Disclosed are a bidirectional link device and method for V2X-based autonomous cooperative traveling. The bidirectional link device mounted on an autonomous cooperative traveling vehicle to support V2X communication between the autonomous cooperative traveling vehicle and a plurality of autonomous traveling infrastructure devices includes a communication standard detector that detects a communication standard of a sharing infrastructure device that is an autonomous traveling infrastructure device that will perform the V2X communication among the plurality of autonomous traveling infrastructure devices, an encoder/decoder that encodes vehicle information of the autonomous cooperative traveling vehicle using the detected communication standard and decodes infrastructure information of the sharing infrastructure device, and a link controller that controls the encoding and the decoding according to a predetermined criterion.

  • Patent number: 11355006
    Abstract: Disclosed is a crosswalk system according to various embodiments comprising an infrastructure including a communication device, a vehicle communicating with the infrastructure, and an indicating device electrically connected to the infrastructure. The infrastructure may detect an external object within a predetermined area through at least one sensor, obtain a location of the vehicle through the communication device, and based on the detected external object and the obtained position of the vehicle, transmit to the indicating device a signal requesting provision of information related to whether it is possible to cross the predetermined area from the external object or the vehicle. Other various embodiment may be implemented.
