Autonomous Vehicles
V2X Communication for Autonomous Driving
V2X is essential for safe and efficient Autonomous Driving
Accurate vehicle
information
Other vehicle sensors estimate vehicle data. Only V2X can provide accurate speed, heading, status of brake pedal, and more.
Sensing
obstructions
AVs get alerts from the V2X sensor about objects they cannot directly see (non-line-of-sight), which is vital for safety and facilitates better decision-making by the robot car.
Works in all
environmental conditions
While fog and sun glare limit the performance of certain sensors, V2X is a highly reliable sensor in any weather or lighting conditions.
Traffic light
state and timing
Traffic efficiency is enhanced with V2X. AVs adjust their speed according to the traffic light green signal cycle for optimizing their arrival. Traffic lights may even adjust based on arriving vehicles.
