Abstract

An example operation includes one or more of obtaining, by a moving vehicle, a first data including one or more of at least one first video and at least one first image of a moving transport, analyzing the first data, by the moving vehicle, to determine an initial issue, querying, by the moving vehicle, a server for a second data based on the analyzing, wherein the second data is one or more of at least one second video and at least one second image of the moving transport at a previous time, verifying, by the moving vehicle, an issue exists based on a delta above a threshold between the first data and the second data, and sending, by the moving vehicle, the verified issue to the server.

Claims (31)

1 . A method, comprising:

capturing, by a moving vehicle, an image of an attribute of a second moving vehicle;

verifying an issue exists based on a delta between the attribute of the second moving vehicle and the attribute of the second moving vehicle in a second image being above a threshold; and

sending a maneuver notification from the moving vehicle to the second moving vehicle over a wireless network based on the verified issue that exists.

2 . The method of claim 1 , comprising analyzing the second image, by the moving vehicle, to determine an initial issue.

3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the second image relates to one or more of a normal operation of the second moving vehicle and a normal appearance of the second moving vehicle.

4 . The method of claim 1 , notifying at least one of the moving vehicle and an occupant of the moving vehicle of the verified issue.

5 . The method of claim 1 , comprising verifying the issue by a server.

6 . The method of claim 1 , comprising alleviating the verified issue based on an autonomous or semi-autonomous maneuver of the moving vehicle.

7 . The method of claim 1 , comprising executing a smart contract and verifying the delta using a consensus based on the second image, wherein the smart contract is stored on a blockchain, and wherein the blockchain is stored on at least one of the moving vehicle and a server.

8 . The method of claim 1 , comprising alleviating the verified issue based on at least one of an autonomous or semi-autonomous maneuvering of the moving vehicle.

9 . A system, comprising:

a processor;

a memory on which are stored machine readable instructions that when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:

capture, by a moving vehicle, an image of an attribute of a second moving vehicle,

verify, by the moving vehicle, an issue exists with the second moving vehicle based on a delta between the attribute of the second moving vehicle and the attribute of the second moving vehicle in a second image being above a threshold, and

send a maneuver notification from the moving vehicle to the second moving vehicle over a wireless network based on the verified issue that exists.

10 . The system of claim 9 , wherein the processor is further configured to analyze the second image to determine an initial issue.

11 . The system of claim 9 , wherein the second image relates to one or more of a normal operation of the second moving vehicle or a normal appearance of the second moving vehicle.

12 . The system of claim 9 , wherein the processor is further configured to notify at least one of the moving vehicle and an occupant of the moving vehicle of the verified issue.

13 . The system of claim 9 , wherein the processor is further configured to verify the issue by a server.

14 . The system of claim 9 , wherein the processor is further configured to alleviate the verified issue based on autonomous or semi-autonomous maneuvering of the moving vehicle.

15 . The system of claim 9 , wherein the processor is further configured to execute a smart contract to verify the delta with a consensus based on the second image, wherein the smart contract is stored on a blockchain, and wherein the blockchain is stored on at least one of the moving vehicle and a server.

16 . A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions, that when read by a processor, cause the processor to perform:

capturing, by a moving vehicle, an image of an attribute of a second moving vehicle;

verifying, by the moving vehicle, an issue exists with the second moving vehicle based on a delta between the attribute of the second moving vehicle and the attribute of the second moving vehicle in a second image being above a threshold; and

sending a maneuver notification from the moving vehicle to the second moving vehicle over a wireless network based on the verified issue that exists.

17 . The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 16 , comprising analyzing the second image to determine an initial issue.

18 . The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 16 , wherein the second image relates to one or more of a normal operation of the second moving vehicle and a normal appearance of the second moving vehicle.

19 . The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 16 , comprising notifying at least one of the second moving vehicle or an occupant of the second moving vehicle of the verified issue.

20 . The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 16 , comprising verifying the issue by a server.
