Abstract:
Smart environments represent the next evolutionary development step in transportation systems. Like any functioning organism, the smart environment relies first and foremost on sensory data from the real world. Sensory data comes from multiple sensors of different modalities in distributed locations. Sensors used by various moving, flying and stationary objects exchange information through broadcasting or indirectly through public or private networks. The information helps various moving vehicles and stationary objects coexist and operate freely without any interruption, interference, and collision.

Claim (Index 11):
A protection system used by a moving or flying vehicle in a smart environment comprising:\n a plurality of sensors installed at locations external to a body of said moving or flying vehicle to provide an information data of said smart environment; a sensor within said plurality of sensors uses a unique IP (internet protocol) address to communication with a central controller with memory; said plurality of sensors includes at least a wireless sensor and an image sensor; said image sensor uses a distance calibration matrix stored in a digital signal processor (DSP) inside said image sensor and an image pixel from a plurality of images of said smart environment to estimate a first distance and a first approaching speed of an object in said smart environment and send to said central controller; said wireless sensor transmits over the air a transmit unique IP address signal and receives a reflected signal of said transmit unique IP address signal from said object in said smart environment to calculate a second distance and a second approaching speed and send to said central controller; said wireless sensor further receives GPS signal to obtain at least one of a location and a time of the day; said wireless sensor also transmits a broadcast information data that include at least one of a type, an IP address, a time of the day at transmit antenna port, said location, and a mass of said moving or flying vehicle as well as receives said broadcast information data transmitted by other entities in said smart environment; said protection system also includes at least one of a plurality of multilayer airbags, a plurality of compressed air units, and a plurality of expandable pads installed at external locations of the body of said moving or flying object; said central controller with memory includes an artificial intelligence (AI) executable software that uses said received broadcast information, said first distance and said first approaching speed information obtained by said image sensor and said second distance and said second approaching speed information obtained by said wireless sensor to control navigation and said protection system of said moving or flying vehicle and decides when to activate at least one of a subset of said plurality of multilayer airbags, said plurality of compressed air units and said plurality of expandable pads.
