Parallel vehicles based on the ACP theory: Safe trips via self-driving

With the development of intelligent technologies, self-driving vehicles are considered as a promising solution against accident, traffic congestion and pollution problems. Intelligent vehicle techniques have been the research focus all over the world. However, full self-driving vehicles are still far away from its realization and extensive application due to safety requirements and cost considerations. As a novel breakthrough, PArallel VEhicles (PAVE) incorporate the ACP theory, which facilitates real-time interaction and optimization of the actual self-driving vehicles and the artificial ones. As a result, PAVE can maintain intelligent control of the actual self-driving vehicles and achieve the global optimization via software-defined self-driving vehicles, intelligent infrastructure construction, and parallel control center. Besides, PAVE can effectively reduce the cost of high-precision equipments on the actual self-driving vehicles via remote processing and intelligent road(side) infrastructure, and also achieve improved safety and reliability via remote control, guidance and planning.
