Ask HN: Self-driving car communication open standard

3 pointsby kretashover 6 years ago
As self-driving cars improve one thing that they would benefit from is communicating with other nearby self-driving cars. As different manufacturers put out their cars an open standard would be needed to allow for different brands to communicate with each other.<p>Is that something that is currently being worked on?<p>I find it interesting how 2 brands might decide who has the right of way in certain situations where it might not be so clear.

I think you are asking about what is called &quot;vehicle-to-vehicle&quot; communication (v2v). I&#x27;m new to this data too, but here is what I&#x27;ve found.<p>&gt; <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.federalregister.gov&#x2F;documents&#x2F;2017&#x2F;01&#x2F;12&#x2F;2016-31059&#x2F;federal-motor-vehicle-safety-standards-v2v-communications" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.federalregister.gov&#x2F;documents&#x2F;2017&#x2F;01&#x2F;12&#x2F;2016-31...</a><p>&gt; <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.nhtsa.gov&#x2F;technology-innovation&#x2F;vehicle-vehicle-communication" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.nhtsa.gov&#x2F;technology-innovation&#x2F;vehicle-vehicle-...</a><p>&gt; <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;web.stanford.edu&#x2F;~cliuliu&#x2F;files&#x2F;acc18-1.pdf" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;web.stanford.edu&#x2F;~cliuliu&#x2F;files&#x2F;acc18-1.pdf</a><p>&gt; <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.zdnet.com&#x2F;article&#x2F;the-x-factor-in-our-driverless-future-v2v-and-v2i&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.zdnet.com&#x2F;article&#x2F;the-x-factor-in-our-driverless...</a><p>&gt; <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;jalopnik.com&#x2F;heres-why-v2v-is-so-enormously-important-for-driverless-1797475901" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;jalopnik.com&#x2F;heres-why-v2v-is-so-enormously-importan...</a> &gt;
