INFORMATION TRANSMISSION DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18486366 titled 'INFORMATION TRANSMISSION DEVICE

The information transmission device described in the patent application consists of a communication unit and a control unit. The communication unit receives position information indicating the current position of a power supply vehicle when it moves to charge a general vehicle. The control unit generates display information based on this position information and transmits it to information terminals.

  • Communication unit receives position information from power supply vehicle or general vehicle
  • Control unit generates display information based on received position information
  • Display information is transmitted to information terminals

Potential Applications: - This technology can be used in electric vehicle charging stations to provide real-time information to users. - It can be implemented in smart cities to optimize the charging process for electric vehicles. - Logistics companies can utilize this technology to track the movement of power supply vehicles efficiently.

Problems Solved: - Provides accurate position information for power supply vehicles charging general vehicles. - Enables seamless communication between different vehicles in a charging station. - Enhances the overall efficiency of electric vehicle charging processes.

Benefits: - Improved user experience for electric vehicle owners. - Increased efficiency in managing charging stations. - Enhanced safety and coordination between vehicles during the charging process.

Commercial Applications: Title: "Smart Electric Vehicle Charging System for Enhanced Efficiency" This technology can be commercialized by electric vehicle charging station operators to offer a more streamlined and efficient charging experience to customers. It can also be integrated into smart city infrastructure to support sustainable transportation initiatives.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the communication unit receive position information from the power supply vehicle and general vehicle? 2. What are the potential implications of this technology for the future of electric vehicle charging infrastructure?


Original Abstract Submitted

The information transmission device includes a communication unit and a control unit. The communication unit receives position information indicating the current position of the power supply vehicle from at least one of the power supply vehicle and the general vehicle when the power supply vehicle moves to the position of the general vehicle and charges the general vehicle. The control unit generates display information based on the received position information, and causes the communication unit to transmit the display information to one or more information terminals.
