ROUTE DETERMINATION DEVICE AND VEHICLE DISPATCH SYSTEM
A server includes a communication device and a processor. From a user terminal, the communication device acquires a vehicle dispatch request including information indicating a vehicle dispatch location and a destination of a vehicle. When the communication device acquires the vehicle dispatch request, the processor determines a traveling route of the vehicle from a current location of the vehicle to the destination via the vehicle dispatch location in accordance with the vehicle dispatch request. The processor determines a route from the current location to the vehicle dispatch location such that an amount of power storage in a power storage device at the vehicle dispatch location is larger than an amount of electric power with which the vehicle can travel from the vehicle dispatch location to the destination.
Apparatus for a dynamic, score-based, telematics connection search engine and aggregator and corresponding method thereof
Proposed is a mobile automotive car system, and method thereof, for a dynamic, telematics-based connection search engine and telematics data aggregator, wherein risk-transfer profiles are captured and categorized in a results list from a plurality of first risk-transfer systems based on dynamically generated driving score parameters by means of appropriately triggered automotive data. As a variant, during a predefined trial period, the automotive and driving behavior data can be collected, which are transmitted together with the generated driving score parameters to multiple automated first risk-transfer systems for quotation. The user is able to dynamically select the best-fitting first risk-transfer system for risk-transfer by means of the results list, which is provided and updated in real-time for display to and selection by a user of a mobile telecommunication apparatus by means of a mobile telematics application of the mobile telecommunications apparatus.
PROCESSING UNIT AND METHOD THEREIN FOR MANAGING ENERGY CONSUMPTION IN A VEHICLE
A method for managing energy consumption in a vehicle along a first route from a source location to a first target destination includes estimating an energy consumption, E.sub.PC, of the vehicle travelling from the source location to the first target destination along the first route. In case the amount of energy, E.sub.TOTAL, available in the vehicle is not on a level above E.sub.C that ensures arrival of the vehicle at the first target destination according to a first determined level of certainty, an estimated energy consumption, E.sub.AUX, of each auxiliary system on-board the vehicle for the first route, and an energy utilization information, EU.sub.INFO, indicating a priority level of each auxiliary system on-board the vehicle for the first route is obtained. An energy consumption adaption sequence of the auxiliary systems is determined for the first route based on the obtained E.sub.AUX and EU.sub.INFO of each auxiliary system such that E.sub.TOTAL is maintained on a level above E.sub.PC that ensures arrival of the vehicle at the first target destination according to a second determined level of certainty.
REMINDING METHOD AND APPARATUS IN ASSISTED DRIVING, REMINDING METHOD AND APPARATUS IN MAP-ASSISTED DRIVING, AND MAP
A method, system and medium for assisted driving of a vehicle are disclosed. The method comprises predicting a target intersection based on map information, a positioning location of the vehicle, and a motion status of the vehicle, where the target intersection is an intersection that the vehicle is to first pass in the future; determining a distance between the vehicle and the target intersection based on the map information and the positioning location of the vehicle; collect a turn light status of the vehicle; and when the distance between the vehicle and the target intersection is less than a first threshold, generating prompt information based on the turn light status of the vehicle and a first turning rule of a first lane in which the vehicle is located at the target intersection, where the prompt information prompts that the turn light status does not conform to the first turning rule.
ROUTE GUIDANCE METHOD AND DEVICE USING AUGMENTED REALITY VIEW
A method of obtaining a route from a point of departure to a destination includes providing route guidance through an augmented reality (AR) view including an image captured by a camera. To provide route guidance, as a user terminal moves toward a destination on the basis of an obtained route, when an interaction occurs between the user terminal and a node or a link in which predetermined information included in the route is registered, content associated with the predetermined information is augmented and displayed as guidance information on an image of an AR view.
INTERACTIVE LISTING OF RIDE SERVICE OPTIONS IN A NAVIGATION APPLICATION
An interactive digital map of a geographic area is provided via a user interface. A request to obtain travel directions to a destination is received via the user interface. Respective indications of candidate rides for at least a portion of a route to the destination are requested from third-party providers, each of the indications including a pick-up location, a price estimate, and pick-up time. The requested indications of the candidate rides are received. A ranking of the candidate rides is determined using at least one of the corresponding pick-up locations, the price estimates, or the pick-up times, and a listing of the candidate rides is provided via the user interface in accordance with the determined ranking. In response to one of the candidate rides being selected via the user interface, a request for the selected ride is transmitted to the corresponding third-party provider.
VEHICLE TRAFFIC LIGHT INFORMATION DISPLAY APPARATUS AND METHOD
A vehicle traffic light information display apparatus includes a communication device that receives at least one of a vehicle surrounding image, vehicle location information, lane driving direction information, turn indicator status information, a navigation guidance route, or any combination thereof, a driving direction determiner that determines a driving direction of a vehicle based on at least one of the vehicle surrounding image, the vehicle location information, the lane driving direction information, the turn indicator status information, or any combination thereof, and a traffic light indication information generator that recognizes a traffic light around the vehicle based on the vehicle surrounding image and generates traffic light indication information based on at least one of the recognized traffic light, the driving direction, the navigation guidance route, or any combination thereof.
System and method for providing personalized driving or navigation assistance
This disclosure relates to method and system for providing personalized driving or navigation assistance. The method may include receiving sensory data with respect to a vehicle from a plurality of sensors and multi-channel input data with respect to one or more passengers inside the vehicle from a plurality of onboard monitoring devices, performing fusion of the sensory data and the multi-channel input data to generate multimodal fusion data, determining one or more contextual events based on the multi-modal fusion data using a machine learning model, wherein the machine learning model is trained using an incremental learning process and comprises a supervised machine learning model and an unsupervised machine learning model, analysing the one or more contextual events to generate a personalized driving recommendation, and providing the personalized driving recommendation to a driver passenger or a navigation device.
Trip planning with energy constraint
A method includes: determining, based, at least in part, on a predicted driver characteristic, a first energy-versus-distance measure for a planned driving route of a vehicle, the first energy-versus-distance measure determined using an energy model; presenting the first energy-versus-distance measure on a user interface associated with the vehicle; identifying an already-driven part of the planned driving route; determining, based on information associated with the already-driven part of the planned driving route, a model error associated with the energy model; determining a second energy-versus-distance measure by modifying the first energy-versus-distance measure to account for the model error; and presenting the second energy-versus-distance measure on the user interface associated with the vehicle.
