System, method, and apparatus for improving the performance of an operator of a vehicle

A method, comprising:

• interpreting, by a processing circuit, a performance criteria for a vehicle, wherein the performance criteria is indicative of a desired operating parameter for the vehicle;
• interpreting, by the processing circuit, a good driver definition value indicative of a good driver profile for the interpreted performance criteria;
• determining, by the processing circuit, a performance value indicative of how an operator of the vehicle is performing with respect to the good driver definition value;
• and
• in response to the performance value indicating that the vehicle is not satisfying the performance criteria, managing, by the processing circuit, an actuator output response value for at least one actuator in the vehicle such that an output of the at least one actuator is actively altered based on the actuator output response value to facilitate achievement of the good driver definition value;
• wherein managing the actuator response value includes re-mapping a throttle map;
• and
• wherein a rate of re-mapping the throttle map is based on driver identification such that the throttle map for known identified drivers is remapped at a different rate than unknown identified drivers.

A vehicle, comprising:

• a throttle system;
• and
• a controller communicably and operatively coupled to the throttle system, wherein the controller is structured to:
• interpret a performance criteria for the vehicle, wherein the performance criteria is indicative of a desired operating parameter for the vehicle;
• interpret a good driver definition value indicative of a good driver profile for the interpreted performance criteria;
• determine a performance value indicative of how an operator of the vehicle is performing with respect to the good driver definition value;
• in response to the performance value indicating that the vehicle is not satisfying the performance criteria, manage an actuator output response value for at least one actuator in the vehicle such that an output of the at least one actuator is actively altered based on the actuator output response value to facilitate achievement of the good driver definition value, wherein the management includes re-mapping a throttle map, and wherein a rate of the re-mapping is driver identification based;
• and
• control the rate of remapping based on driver identification such that the throttle map for known identified drivers is remapped at a different rate than unknown identified drivers.
