VEHICLE CONTROLLER AND RECORDING MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240132090 titled 'VEHICLE CONTROLLER AND RECORDING MEDIUM

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a vehicle controller that can detect dangerous driving behavior and the elevated mood of the driver to intervene and settle the driver's mood.

  • The processor in the vehicle controller detects the driving state of the vehicle.
  • It determines if a predetermined dangerous driving behavior is present in the detected driving state.
  • When dangerous driving is detected, it checks if the driver's mood is elevated.
  • If the driver's mood is elevated, the vehicle controller performs actions to settle the driver's mood.

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in various vehicles, such as cars, trucks, and autonomous vehicles, to enhance safety on the roads by addressing dangerous driving behaviors and the driver's mood.

Problems Solved

1. Addressing dangerous driving behaviors that could lead to accidents. 2. Improving the overall driving experience by considering the driver's mood and intervening when necessary.

Benefits

1. Increased road safety. 2. Enhanced driver well-being. 3. Prevention of potential accidents.

Potential Commercial Applications

"Enhancing Road Safety and Driver Well-being: Applications of a Mood-Sensing Vehicle Controller"

Possible Prior Art

There may be prior art related to vehicle controllers that detect dangerous driving behaviors, but the integration of mood detection and intervention is a unique aspect of this technology.

Unanswered Questions

How does the vehicle controller determine the driver's mood?

The abstract does not provide details on the specific methods or technologies used to assess the driver's mood.

What specific actions does the vehicle controller take to settle the driver's mood?

The abstract does not elaborate on the exact interventions or mechanisms employed by the vehicle controller to address the driver's elevated mood.


Original Abstract Submitted

a vehicle controller for a vehicle includes a processor to: detect a driving state of the vehicle; determine whether a predetermined dangerous driving is included in the detected driving state; determine, when determining that the predetermined dangerous driving is included in the detected driving state, whether a mood of a driver of the vehicle is elevated; and perform, when determining that the mood of the driver is elevated, vehicle control to settle the mood of the driver.
