Application: Method of coordinating a maneuver among vehicles (Patent ID: US20230322256A1)
The patent filed by Bayerische Motoren Werke AG describes a method for coordinating maneuvers among vehicles by negotiating maneuvers between at least two vehicles and transmitting status messages based on the vehicles' interactions with target road resources. The method involves determining when a vehicle enters or leaves an area associated with a target road resource and transmitting status messages accordingly. Additionally, the method includes reevaluating the participation of the second vehicle based on the information conveyed in the status message and potentially providing alternative target road resources if deviations are detected.
Furthermore, the patent outlines the use of status messages containing identifiers of target road resources and information on the vehicle's interaction with these resources. The method also includes transmitting feedback messages in response to received status messages to ensure effective coordination between vehicles. The patent covers not only the method itself but also the apparatus, computer product, and computer-readable signal carrying instructions for implementing this method of coordinating maneuvers among vehicles.
