UseCases

value proposition

Accurate Location

The accuracy of location improved by over 10 times than today's system. Today’s  GPS system is around 5-10meters away from your reallocation, <1 meter is possible with the help of edge computing. 

Smarter Navigation

Real-time traffic information update, reduces the latency from minutes to seconds, figure out the most efficient way for drivers.

Safe DriveImprovement

Figure out the potential risks which can NOT be seen by the driver. See below.

Reduce traffic violation

Let the driverunderstand the traffic rule in some specific area. For instance,  change the line prior to a narrow street, avoiding the opposite way drive in the one-way road, avoiding carpool lane when a single driver and so on.


Overall Architecture

The following picture depicts the architecture of the Connect Vehicle Blueprint, which consists of the following key components:

  • Commodity Hardware, Arm/X86 Physical Server.
  • IaaS Software, like Openstack, IaaS and so on
  • Tars Microservice Platform
  • Connected Vehicle Applications + Virtual Classromm(VR) Applications 

The combination of Commodity Hardware and IaaS Software provides flexible deployments, like Bare Metal, Virtual Machine as well as Container. 

...

Connected Vehicle Applications are some different applications that fulfill Accurate Location, Smarter Navigation, Safe Drive Improvement and Reduce traffic violations.


Platform Architecture

Software Platform Architecture

The following is the general architecture of Tars, which is a major component in R3.

...


Tars is an edge compute microservice platform with low latency, high quality.
