Abstract

A method for information transmission and visualization of vehicle data detected by sensors, particularly speed, lighting status, tripping of ABS, steering wheel turning angle, position, etc., between the vehicles, as well as a corresponding traffic information system. To implement a “predictive” driving aid to prevent congestion and accidents, the method uses a cellular network for information transmission and overlays the transmitted data onto the windshield of the vehicle.
