Medius, Inc. of Seattle, Washington has been issued a patent for a fundamental aspect of cooperative vehicle-highway systems. How will this ripple through evolving R&D and product introductions? More info inside
..
The patent, issued September 14, 2004, is titled Method and Apparatus for Multi-Vehicle Communication. The patent number is 6,792,351 B2. It was issued to Robert P. Lutter and assigned to Medius.
The patent is very comprehensive and could be argued to apply to virtually every application in development based on vehicle-vehicle and vehicle-roadside communications. The patent specifically refers to satellite, roadside, and inter-vehicle communications.
Applications addressed in the patent are:
Probe data
Emergency messaging (receive the message, compare with heading/route, and notify driver or slow down vehicle as appropriate)
Receive traffic info, compare to route, and automatically generate new route as needed to avoid congestion
Message data items are listed as
Road condition
Emergency message
Map route
Recall notice
Personal information
Vehicle location
Kinematic state
Sensor data
Maintenance information
Claims are fairly comprehensive, including generic actions such as processing messages
using an electronic map, exchanging messages with other vehicles, and exchanging recorded data with other vehicles (on road conditions, for instance).
In general, Medius seeks to apply extensive experience in designing avionics systems to the advanced driver assistance systems arena.
