A method includes receiving, by a processor of a data collector, a request for sensor data related to an event. The method also includes sending a plurality of requests for the sensor data to a plurality of on-board units (OBUs), respectively, where the plurality of OBUs is associated with a plurality of vehicles, respectively. The method further includes receiving a plurality of responses from the plurality of OBUs, respectively, wherein each response of the plurality of responses includes a sensor data item related to the event. In more specific embodiments the plurality of requests are sent to the plurality of OBUs based on the plurality of OBUs being located within a certain proximity to the event. In yet further embodiments, each sensor data item of the plurality of responses is encapsulated with a respective tag.

System and method for routing, mobility, application services, discovery, and sensing in a vehicular network environment

A method includes establishing communication channels between an on-board unit (OBU) of a vehicle and a plurality of nodes, tagging each of a plurality of data from the plurality of nodes with a priority level, storing the plurality of data in a priority queue according to respective priority levels, selecting a medium to present a first data of the plurality of data to a user, and presenting the first data to the user via the medium. In the method, the plurality of nodes includes a remote node and an in-vehicle device. Another method includes receiving a data from a remote node, generating a plurality of data streams from the data and transmitting the plurality of data streams across a plurality of wireless interfaces. Another method includes enhancing audio signals from a plurality of microphones and speakers. Yet another method includes various gesture based user interfaces coupled to the OBU.
