Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method, an apparatus and a device for an illegal vehicle warning. The method includes: detecting an illegal vehicle in a preset area; and performing the illegal vehicle warning on a target vehicle entering the preset area according to vehicle information of a detected illegal vehicle in the preset area. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the traffic control unit detects the illegal vehicle in the preset area, and the illegal vehicle warning is performed on the target vehicle entering the preset area according to the vehicle information of the detected illegal vehicle in the preset area, thereby avoiding or mitigating the collision of the target vehicle with the illegal vehicle, and improving the traffic safety of the target vehicle.

Claims (45)

1. A method for an illegal vehicle warning, which is executed by a traffic control unit, the method comprises:

receiving vehicle information of at least one vehicle transmitted by the at least one vehicle in a preset area, wherein the vehicle information of the at least one vehicle comprises identification information of the at least one vehicle and driving intention information of the at least one vehicle, wherein the driving intention information of the at least one vehicle comprises a u-turn;

detecting an illegal vehicle in a preset area from among the at least one vehicle in the preset area, wherein the detecting the illegal vehicle in the preset area comprises detecting the illegal vehicle in the preset area according to the vehicle information of the at least one vehicle in the preset area and traffic rules of the preset area;

receiving vehicle information of a target vehicle entering the preset area transmitted by the target vehicle, wherein the vehicle information of the target vehicle comprises driving intention information of the target vehicle, wherein the identification information of the target vehicle comprises a license plate number;

determining the target vehicle may collide with the illegal vehicle according to the vehicle information of the target vehicle and vehicle information of the detected illegal vehicle in the preset area;

calculating a collision time of the target vehicle with the illegal vehicle;

performing the illegal vehicle warning on the target vehicle at a preset time before the collision time, so as to cause the target vehicle to avoid a collision with the illegal vehicle, wherein the preset time is related to a braking time of the target vehicle; and

wherein the performing the illegal vehicle warning on the target vehicle at the preset time before the collision time comprises:

transmitting the vehicle information of the detected illegal vehicle in the preset area to the target vehicle prior to the braking time subtracted from the collision time; or

transmitting illegal vehicle warning information to the target vehicle prior to the braking time subtracted from the collision time.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the vehicle information of the target vehicle further comprises at least one of the following: a speed of the target vehicle and position information of the target vehicle.

3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the vehicle information of the target vehicle further comprises at least one of the following:

an accelerated speed of the target vehicle and a driving direction of the target vehicle.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the vehicle information of the at least one vehicle comprises at least one of the following: a speed of the at least one vehicle and position information of the at least one vehicle.

5. The method according to claim 4 , wherein the vehicle information of the at least one vehicle further comprises at least one of the following: an accelerated speed of the at least one vehicle and a driving direction of the at least one vehicle.

6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the vehicle information of the illegal vehicle comprises at least one of the following: illegal behavior information of the illegal vehicle, and position information of the illegal vehicle.

7. The method according to claim 6 , wherein the vehicle information of the illegal vehicle further comprises at least one of the following: a speed of the illegal vehicle, identification information of the illegal vehicle, an accelerated speed of the illegal vehicle and a driving direction of the illegal vehicle; wherein the identification information of the illegal vehicle comprises a license plate number.

8. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the preset area is an intersection or a curve.

9. An apparatus for an illegal vehicle warning, which is integrated into a traffic control unit, the apparatus comprises:

a memory and a processor;

wherein the memory is configured to store program codes;

the processor is configured to call the program codes, and the processor is configured to perform the following steps when the program codes are executed:

receiving vehicle information of at least one vehicle transmitted by the at least one vehicle in a preset area, wherein the vehicle information of the at least one vehicle comprises identification information of the at least one vehicle and driving intention information of the at least one vehicle, wherein the driving intention information of the at least one vehicle comprises a u-turn;

detecting an illegal vehicle in a preset area from among the at least one vehicle in the preset area, wherein the detecting the illegal vehicle in the preset area comprises detecting the illegal vehicle in the preset area according to the vehicle information of the at least one vehicle in the preset area and traffic rules of the preset area;

receiving vehicle information of a target vehicle entering the preset area transmitted by the target vehicle, wherein the vehicle information of the target vehicle comprises driving intention information of the target vehicle, wherein the identification information of the target vehicle comprises a license plate number;

determining the target vehicle may collide with the illegal vehicle according to the vehicle information of the target vehicle and vehicle information of the detected illegal vehicle in the preset area;

calculating a collision time of the target vehicle with the illegal vehicle;

performing the illegal vehicle warning on the target vehicle at a preset time before the collision time, so as to cause the target vehicle to avoid a collision with the illegal vehicle, wherein the preset time is related to a braking time of the target vehicle; and

wherein the performing the illegal vehicle warning on the target vehicle at the preset time before the collision time comprises:

transmitting the vehicle information of the detected illegal vehicle in the preset area to the target vehicle prior to the braking time subtracted from the collision time; or

transmitting illegal vehicle warning information to the target vehicle prior to the braking time subtracted from the collision time.

10. The apparatus for illegal vehicle warning according to claim 9 , wherein the vehicle information of the target vehicle further comprises at least one of the following:

a speed of the target vehicle and position information of the target vehicle.

11. The apparatus for illegal vehicle warning according to claim 10 , wherein the vehicle information of the target vehicle further comprises at least one of the following:

an accelerated speed of the target vehicle and a driving direction of the target vehicle.

12. The apparatus for illegal vehicle warning according to claim 9 , wherein the vehicle information of the at least one vehicle comprises at least one of the following:
