JUDDER IDENTIFICATION DEVICE AND VEHICLE HAVING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18200435 titled 'JUDDER IDENTIFICATION DEVICE AND VEHICLE HAVING THE SAME

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a vehicle with a judder identification device that uses multiple sensor groups to predict and identify judder intensity and position.

  • The vehicle includes a first sensor group with multiple sensors and a second sensor group with different sensors.
  • A processor analyzes data from the sensors to predict judder intensity and position.
  • The processor identifies the judder position and intensity based on the predicted values and preset thresholds.
  • An outputter then displays the identified judder position and intensity to the user.

Potential Applications

This technology can be applied in vehicles to improve safety and comfort by identifying and addressing judders in real-time.

Problems Solved

This technology helps in quickly identifying judders in vehicles, allowing for prompt maintenance or adjustments to ensure a smooth and safe ride.

Benefits

The benefits of this technology include enhanced safety, improved driving experience, and reduced wear and tear on vehicle components.

Potential Commercial Applications

This technology can be utilized in automotive manufacturing, fleet management, and aftermarket vehicle maintenance services.

Possible Prior Art

Prior art may include similar systems used in vehicles for detecting vibrations or irregularities in the driving experience.

Unanswered Questions

How does the system differentiate between different types of judders or vibrations?

The patent application does not specify how the system distinguishes between various types of judders or vibrations that may occur in a vehicle.

What is the impact of environmental factors on the accuracy of judder identification?

The patent application does not address how environmental conditions such as road surface, weather, or temperature may affect the accuracy of judder identification by the system.


Original Abstract Submitted

A vehicle including a judder identification device includes a first sensor group including a plurality of sensors; a second sensor group including a plurality of sensors different from the plurality of sensors of the first sensor group; a processor configured to predict a judder intensity based on information detected by the plurality of sensors of the first sensor group, predict a judder position based on the information detected by the plurality of sensors of the first sensor group and information detected by the plurality of sensors of the second sensor group, and identify a judder position and a judder intensity based on the predicted judder intensity, a preset judder intensity, the predicted judder position, and a preset judder position; and an outputter configured to output the identified judder position and the identified judder intensity.
