Intelligent vehicular ad hoc network

Okay kiddo, imagine you are going on a road trip with your family. Now, on this trip, you all need to communicate with each other to make sure you are going to the same place or if you need to take a different route. You can use your phones to call or text each other or even talk through a walkie-talkie.

The same thing goes for cars on the road. They need to communicate with each other to make sure they don't crash or cause any accidents. That's where the intelligent vehicular ad hoc network comes in. It's like a big group chat for all the cars on the road.

The cars use something called "sensors" to communicate with each other. These sensors can pick up information like how fast the car is going or if the driver is braking. They can also share information about the road conditions like if there is traffic or if there is a big pothole up ahead.

This is really helpful because it helps drivers avoid accidents or traffic jams. Plus, it's especially useful for self-driving cars because they need to "talk" to other cars on the road to make the best decisions.

So, instead of just relying on our phones or walkie-talkies to communicate during a road trip, cars have their own way of communicating with each other through sensors and the intelligent vehicular ad hoc network. Cool, huh?
