This project will explore how the behaviour of autonomous vehicles may be informed by live satellite observations of earth (i.e. captured within a few seconds). These remote observations can reveal hidden dangers that may not be visible from the vehicles point-of-view. For example vehicles or pedestrians emerging from hidden turnings, or cars overtaking in the opposite lane. The project will explore both the terrestrial and on-orbit aspects of the project. Specifically it will 1) assess the validity and mechanisms that might enable the broadcast of such satellite imagery in a timely manner (i.e. specialist hardware and compression systems). 2) explore how the data might be effectively used by the AI system of the autonomous vehicle. For example predicting the upcoming behaviours of other road users, and using this to inform the vehicles behaviour.

该项目将探讨如何通过对地球的现场卫星观测来告知自动驾驶汽车的行为（即在几秒钟内被捕获）。这些遥远的观察结果可能会揭示隐藏的危险，而这些危险在车辆的观点中可能看不到。例如，从隐藏的转弯处出现的车辆或行人，或在对面的车道上越过汽车。该项目将探索该项目的地面和轨道方面。具体而言，它将1）评估可以及时及时广播此类卫星图像的有效性和机制（即专业硬件和压缩系统）。 2）探索自动驾驶汽车的AI系统如何有效地使用数据。例如，预测其他道路使用者的即将到来的行为，并以此来告知车辆行为。
