| 20090150017 | COMPUTING PLATFORM FOR MULTIPLE INTELLIGENT TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS IN AN AUTOMOTIVE VEHICLE - A computing platform for multiple intelligent transportation systems in an automotive vehicle having a plurality of sensors which generate output signals representative of various vehicle operating parameters. The platform includes a vehicle data center which receives input signals from the vehicle sensors and the vehicle data center is configured to transform these input signals into output signals having a predetermined format for each of the vehicle operating parameters. A central processing unit receives the output signal from the vehicle data and is programmed to process the vehicle data center output signals for each of the intelligent transportation systems and generate the appropriate output signals as a result of such processing. | 06-11-2009 |

| 20100057361 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR STOCHASTICALLY PREDICTING THE FUTURE STATES OF A VEHICLE - A method for predicting future states of a vehicle including the steps of selecting a model having n states reflecting dynamic features of the vehicle; inputting noisy sensor measurements representing a current state of the vehicle to generate (2n+1) sigma points X | 03-04-2010 |
| 20110046843 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF VEHICULAR PATH PREDICTION FOR COOPERATIVE DRIVING APPLICATIONS THROUGH DIGITAL MAP AND DYNAMIC VEHICLE MODEL FUSION - Method and system of vehicular path prediction for a vehicle travelling on a road. A yaw rate of the vehicle is estimated over a prediction time period based on vehicle sensor information and map information for the road. Then, a further path of the vehicle on the road is predicted for the prediction time period based on a speed and a direction of the vehicle, and the estimated yaw rate. Map information includes a geometry for a portion of the road on which the vehicle is travelling, and the vehicle sensor information includes yaw rate information from a yaw rate sensor on the vehicle, and location information of the vehicle relative to the map information from a positioning device on the vehicle. A vehicle provided for path prediction includes a communication system for transmitting the predicted path to other vehicles for collision avoidance. | 02-24-2011 |

| 20120078507 | Systems and Methods for Estimating Local Traffic Flow - Systems and methods for estimating local traffic flow are described. One embodiment of a method includes determining a driving habit of a user from historical data, determining a current location of a vehicle that the user is driving, and determining a current driving condition for the vehicle. Some embodiments include predicting a desired driving condition from the driving habit and the current location, comparing the desired driving condition with the current driving condition to determine a traffic congestion level, and sending a signal that indicates the traffic congestion level. | 03-29-2012 |
