Systems and methods for cooperative ramp merger are described. In one embodiment, a system includes a swarm module, position module, identification module, constraint module, and cooperative module. The swarm module causes a host vehicle to join cooperating vehicles of proximate vehicles to assist the merging vehicle. A position module identifies relative positions of the host vehicle and the proximate vehicles. An identification module selects a role for the host vehicle based on the relative positions of the host vehicle and the cooperating vehicles and identifies a duplicate role. A constraint module calculates a merge location area based on the relative positions of the host vehicle and the proximate vehicles and the ramp location and a duplicate sequence based on the duplicate role. A cooperative module determines a cooperative action for the host vehicle based on the role of the host vehicle, the merge location area, and the duplicate role.

Systems and methods for cooperative ramp merge

Systems and methods for cooperative ramp merger are described herein. In one embodiment, a system for assisting with a merge based on a ramp location of a ramp is provided. A swarm module causes a host vehicle to join a swarm created to assist the merging vehicle in the merge maneuver. A position module identifies relative positions of the host vehicle and other members of the swarm. An identification module selects a role for the host vehicle based on the relative positions of the host vehicle and the other members of the plurality of members. A constraint module calculates a merge location area based on the relative positions of the host vehicle and the other members of the plurality of members and the ramp location. A cooperative module determines a cooperative action for the host vehicle based on the role of the host vehicle and the merge location area.

A display apparatus is provided. The display apparatus includes a display screen, and control circuitry that is coupled with the display screen. The control circuitry is configured to detect at least one physical space based on a geographical location of a vehicle which includes the display apparatus. The control circuitry is configured to establish a communication connection with at least one electronic device associated with the detected at least one physical space. The control circuitry is further configured to receive at least one image frame associated with at least one activity being performed within the at least one physical space based on the established communication connection. The at least one image frame is received from the at least one electronic device. The control circuitry is further configured to control the display screen to display the received at least one image frame associated with the at least one activity.
