Abstract:
Apparatuses and methods of operating the same are described. A sensor system including a sensor, a processor, and a communication subsystem. The sensor may measure a defined area of a path located below the sensor system to obtain a sensor measurement. The processor may be coupled to the sensor. The processor may determine at least one of environmental condition information within the defined area or characteristic information associated with an object within the defined area using the sensor measurement. The communication subsystem may be coupled to the processor. The communication subsystem may send at least one of the environmental condition information or the characteristic information to a communication system of a vehicle.

Claim (Index 17):
A method, comprising:\n measuring, by a first sensor, a defined area of a path below a sensor to obtain a first sensor measurement; receiving, by a processing device, a second sensor measurement taken by a second sensor of a vehicle, wherein:\n the second sensor is a different type of sensor than the first sensor; and \n the second sensor measurement indicates there is an object within the defined area of a road, wherein the defined area is an area below the sensor system; \n determining, by the processing device, that the second sensor measurement includes interference that obscures identification of the object based on the second sensor measurement aggregating, by the processing device, the first sensor measurement from the first sensor with the second sensor measurement from the second sensor to obtain aggregated sensor information; generating, by the processing device, a scene description of an area approximate the vehicle that includes the object based on the aggregated sensor information; and sending, by a communication subsystem, the scene description to a communication system of the vehicle.
