    Abstract: A driving support device includes: an intersection information acquiring unit 3 to obtain signal light information about traffic signals installed at one or more intersections ahead of a road along which the vehicle is traveling and to obtain distances to the intersections; a vehicle state detector 4 to detect a position and speed of travel of the vehicle; a signal passableness deciding unit 5 to decide a passable or impassable state of the traffic signals by the vehicle from the signal light information, the distances to the intersections, and the position and speed of travel of the vehicle; and a display controller 7 to display the passable or impassable state of the traffic signals decided by the signal passableness deciding unit 5 by changes of color on the map.

    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to one or more systems, methods, and/or devices for an advanced warning system that alerts drivers of potential upcoming traffic conditions (e.g., accidents or traffic slowdowns) based on active monitoring of vehicle parameters (e.g., speed, braking, air bag deployment, etc.) associated with other vehicles traveling ahead in the same direction. Thus, in some aspects, the advanced warning system may receive, at a network device (e.g., network management center (NMC)), one or more parameters from a first mobile computing platform (MCP) associated with a first vehicle and determine, at the network device, whether a traffic condition has developed on a stretch of highway based on the one or more parameters.
