USER INTERFACES FOR CUSTOMIZED NAVIGATION ROUTES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240094017 titled 'USER INTERFACES FOR CUSTOMIZED NAVIGATION ROUTES
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a patent application for an electronic device that suggests routes based on the characteristics of vehicles and receives data for vehicles from an external source. The device anonymizes vehicle identifiers to determine customized suggested routes and generates starting charge maps and buffer maps for route generation.
- Electronic device suggests routes based on vehicle characteristics
- Data for vehicles received from external source
- Anonymizes vehicle identifiers for customized routes
- Generates starting charge maps and buffer maps for route generation
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in navigation systems for electric vehicles, ride-sharing platforms, and fleet management systems.
Problems Solved
