The present application discloses a method, device and system for automatic oiling of a long-distance transport vehicle. The method provided by the present application includes: obtaining, by a transport planning system at a network side, vehicle status information, transport mission information and highway port information of the vehicle before the long-distance transport vehicle starts from a highway port of departure; generating a transport plan according to the vehicle status information, the transport mission information and the highway port information, wherein the transport plan comprises at least one highway port to be stopped at, cargo quantity to be loaded at each highway port to be stopped at and oil mass to be filled at each highway port to be stopped at; and sending the transport plan to the vehicle.

A method for receiving a plurality of captures of a vehicle from a plurality of locations. Calculating a plurality of signatures of the vehicle, each respectfully associated with a corresponding capture from the plurality of captures. Associating the plurality of signatures resulting in a single signature and utilizing the single signature for identifying the vehicle.

The present invention relates to a novel full-service autonomous gas station comprising of a plurality of drive-through service bay lanes. The gas station includes an autonomous fueling section and a pick-up area in each service bay lane for autonomous fueling of the vehicle and delivery of ordered store items. The gas station determines the position of a vehicle relative to a fuel refilling robotic arm before automatically filling fuel in fuel tank of the vehicle. A voice-activated digital menu display board displays store items that can be ordered via a smartphone application or a voice-input system by a user of the car while remaining within the car. The fuel is also refilled without requiring the user to exit the vehicle. A second robotic arm provides ordered item(s) to the user and thus obviates the need of the user to exit the vehicle throughout the station.

A fueling station transaction system, method and retrofitting method, the system having a fuel pump dispensing fuel to individual customers; a forecourt controller; a terminal disposed within the fuel pump, the terminal comprising a processing unit, a secure card reader, an encryption module and a wireless communication module; the terminal being in wireless communication with a payment processor; one or more point of sale systems which communicate with the forecourt controller using established protocols; and a gateway device, wherein the terminal communicates wirelessly with the gateway device, and wherein the terminal and the forecourt controller communicate with each other only through the gateway device, and wherein the gateway device communicates with the forecourt controller using the established protocols of the point of sale systems. Also disclosed is a method of performing the payment transaction, and for retrofitting current fuel station systems to incorporate the system disclosed herein.

First data characterizing an attribute of a fuel dispenser user interacting with a fuel dispenser having an interactive display can be received. Second data characterizing a gaming application for presentation on the interactive display of the fuel dispenser can be determined based on the received first data and using a first predictive model that predicts an association of the gaming application with the fuel dispenser user characterized by the first data. The second data can be provided such that an instance of the gaming application is presented on the interactive display of the fuel dispenser. Related apparatus, systems, methods, techniques, and articles are also described.

In general, transparent fuel dispensers are provided, and in particular methods and devices are provided for increasing visibility on a fuel dispensing device. In one embodiment a fuel dispenser is provided having a display that is at least partially transparent at least during certain modes of operation. The display can display information on portions thereof during certain modes of operation as well.

A system whereby a mobile fuel station may refuel vehicles is disclosed. Fuel reservoirs are provided in a mobile fuel station that may store fuel and dispense fuel through a hybrid fuel line. Fuel nozzles are provided which can be detachably connected to the hybrid fuel line and can measure and display fuel dispensed from the mobile fuel station. Communication devices and a network are provided that allow a vehicle and a mobile fuel station to communicate location and status information wirelessly with the network. Refueling services and maintenance services that may be carried out using the mobile fuel station are also disclosed and claimed herein.

A method of providing fuel to consumers at fuel pumping stations. The method comprises installing a given version of a software update in a fuel pump simulator; testing the given version of the software update in the fuel pump simulator by an automated fuel pump test platform, wherein the testing comprises a personal identification number (PIN) entry robot of the automated fuel pump test platform keying a PIN into a PIN pad of the fuel pump simulator and wherein the PIN pad of the fuel pump simulator is maintained at an angle between 30 degrees relative to horizontal and 60 degrees relative to horizontal; and detecting an error in the given version of the software update by the automated fuel pump test platform.

The subject matter discloses a method, the method comprises receiving an event of capturing a capture of a vehicle; generating a signature of the vehicle from the capture; comparing the signature to a second signature; wherein the second signature is associated with an identified vehicle, the comparing resulting in a level of confidence; and if the level of confidence exceeds a threshold then identifying the vehicle as the identified vehicle.
