Abstract
An Internet of Thing (IoT) device includes a body with a processor, a camera and a wireless transceiver coupled to the processor.
Claims20
A method for determining real-time vehicle operation cost for a driver during a trip, comprising:
- mounting cameras on a vehicle to monitor traffic data, wherein at least one camera determines distances of neighboring objects from the camera;
- generating a 3D model and determining obstacle information from nearby cars;
- adjusting the 3D model based on the weather information and weather impact on sensors;
- generating a comprehensive 3D model with traffic flow information;
- collecting data from vehicle sensors monitoring vehicle operation and collecting vehicle driver behavior data including a driver emotional state, contextual information, driver history, and real-time driving information based on operation of the vehicle by the driver;
- determining a real-time rate of operating the vehicle based on the adjusted 3D model traffic and vehicle speed, wherein each item of driver behavior data is weighted in determining the real-time rate or cost;
- displaying the determined real-time rate to the driver.
4 more elements
A system, comprising:
- a vehicle;
- cameras coupled to the vehicle body on a plurality of locations including a left side, a right side, a front side, and a back side to capture a plurality of views and wherein at least one camera captures and determines distances of the neighboring objects from the camera and generates an integrated 3D model with obstacle information from nearby cars, wherein the 3D model is adjusted based on the weather information and weather impact on sensors;
- sensors to detect driver emotion and driver behavior;
- a processor coupled to the cameras and the sensors and to a wireless transceiver;
- code to use the determined distances of the neighboring objects and the driver behavior to determine a risk of loss from driver behavior and 3D model, wherein each item of driver behavior data can have a different weight assigned weight in determining the real-time rate or cost.
