Multi-vehicle prediction system

Abstract

A method of operating an incident avoidance system for use in a vehicle comprises a gateway receiving a plurality of vehicular data samples from a plurality of data sources in a vicinity of a target vehicle. A stream processor coupled to the gateway, categorizes a first plurality of low latency data samples from the plurality of vehicular data samples based on an allowable latency of each of the plurality of vehicular data samples. A rules engine coupled to the stream processor, receives the plurality of low latency data samples. The rules engine produces a predictive model based on the plurality of low latency data samples. A notification service accesses the predictive model and situational data of the target vehicle to predict an incident. The notification service transmits a notification of the incident to the target vehicle.
