1. An apparatus for sharing vehicle information, the apparatus comprising:
- a self sensor processor configured to acquire driving-related information through a sensor of a self vehicle;
a self future prediction sensor processor configured to generate future driving-related information of the self vehicle based on the driving-related information;
a remote virtual sensor processor configured to receive driving-related information and future driving-related information of another vehicle;
a dynamic map processor configured to collect the driving-related information of the vehicles including the self vehicle and generate dynamic map data; and
a cooperative sensor interface configured to analyze driving-related information requested by the dynamic map processor and request the driving-related information from at least one of the self sensor processor, the self future prediction sensor processor, and the remote virtual sensor processor.
