Abstract
Determining toll data can include receiving a first data set, wherein the first data set corresponds to one or more toll stations, and receiving a second data set indicating either or both lane and traffic information associated with at least one of the toll stations, the first data set being processed to determine at least one payment option associated with the one or more toll stations, wherein the at least one payment option is output to a human machine interface for selection by a user of a vehicle. A toll station lane of a first toll station can be allocated based on the second data set. The allocated toll station lane can be output to a human machine interface to guide the user.
Claims21
A controller for determining toll data, the controller being configured to:
- receive a first data set, wherein the first data set corresponds to one or more toll stations;
- receive a second data set indicating either or both lane and traffic information associated with at least one of the toll stations;
- process the first data set to determine at least one payment option associated with the one or more toll stations;
- output the at least one payment option to a human machine interface for selection by a user of a vehicle;
- allocate a toll station lane of a first toll station based on the second data set;
- and
- output the allocated toll station lane to a human machine interface to guide the user.
A computer-implemented method for determining toll data, the method comprising:
- obtaining a first data set, wherein the first data set corresponds to one or more toll stations;
- obtaining a second data set indicating either or both lane and traffic information associated with at least one of the toll stations;
- processing the first data set to determine at least one payment option associated with the one or more toll stations;
- outputting the at least one payment option to a human machine interface for selection by a user of a vehicle;
- allocating a toll station lane of a first toll station based on the second data set;
- and
- outputting the allocated toll station lane to a human machine interface to guide the user.
