Autonomous vehicle application
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for presenting vehicle data for a road segment based upon data collected from a plurality of vehicles each having one or more autonomous operation features, comprising:
- receiving, at one or more processors, a plurality of communications from a plurality of vehicles each having one or more autonomous operation features, wherein each of the plurality of communications includes data corresponding to a same road segment on which the plurality of vehicles travelled, and wherein the data includes an indication of a location within the road segment and an indication of a condition of the road segment at the location;
combining, by the one or more processors, the data for the same road segment from the plurality of communications to generate an overall indication of the condition of the road segment, wherein the overall indication includes a recommendation to vehicles approaching the road segment;
receiving, by the one or more processors, a request to display vehicle data including the overall indication for the road segment from a mobile device within a vehicle approaching the road segment; and
causing, by the one or more processors, the overall indication for the road segment to be displayed on a user interface of the mobile device.

Abstract
Methods and systems for communicating between autonomous vehicles are described herein. Such communication may be performed for signaling, collision avoidance, path coordination, and/or autonomous control. A computing device may receive communications from autonomous vehicles, where the communications include data for the same road segment, including an indication of a condition of the road segment. The computing device may combine the data for the same road segment to generate an overall indication of the condition of the road segment, which may include a recommendation to vehicles approaching the road segment. Additionally, the computing device may receive a request from a mobile device within a vehicle approaching the road segment to display vehicle data. The overall indication for the road segment may then be displayed on a user interface of the mobile device.

8. A computer system configured to present vehicle data for a road segment based upon data collected from a plurality of vehicles each having one or more autonomous operation features, the computer system comprising one or more local or remote processors, transceivers, and/or sensors configured to:
-
receive a plurality of communications from a plurality of vehicles each having one or more autonomous operation features, wherein each of the plurality of communications includes data corresponding to a same road segment on which the plurality of vehicles travelled, and wherein the data includes an indication of a location within the road segment and an indication of a condition of the road segment at the location; combine the data for the same road segment from the plurality of communications to generate an overall indication of the condition of the road segment, wherein the overall indication includes a recommendation to vehicles approaching the road segment; receive a request to display vehicle data including the overall indication for the road segment from a mobile device within a vehicle approaching the road segment; and cause the overall indication for the road segment to be displayed on a user interface of the mobile device. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing thereon a set of instructions that, when executed on one or more processors, causes the one or more processors to:
-
receive a plurality of communications from a plurality of vehicles each having one or more autonomous operation features, wherein each of the plurality of communications include data corresponding to a same road segment on which the plurality of vehicles travelled, and wherein the data includes an indication of a location within the road segment and an indication of a condition of the road segment at the location; combine the data for the same road segment from the plurality of communications to generate an overall indication of the condition of the road segment, wherein the overall indication includes a recommendation to vehicles approaching the road segment; receive a request to display vehicle data including the overall indication for the road segment from a mobile device within a vehicle approaching the road segment; and cause the overall indication for the road segment to be displayed on a user interface of the mobile device. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
