USER INTERFACES FOR CUSTOMIZED NAVIGATION ROUTES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18518282 titled 'USER INTERFACES FOR CUSTOMIZED NAVIGATION ROUTES
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a system where an electronic device suggests routes based on the characteristics of different vehicles. Here are some key points from the abstract:
- Electronic device displays suggested routes based on vehicle characteristics.
- Data for vehicles is received from an external source.
- Anonymized vehicle identifiers are used to determine customized suggested routes.
- Starting Charge Maps and/or Buffer Maps are generated and utilized for route generation.
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in various industries such as transportation, logistics, and automotive to optimize route planning and improve efficiency.
Problems Solved
This technology solves the problem of inefficient route planning by taking into account the specific characteristics of different vehicles, leading to more customized and optimized routes.
Benefits
The benefits of this technology include improved efficiency, cost savings, reduced fuel consumption, and overall better route planning for different types of vehicles.
Potential Commercial Applications
Potential commercial applications of this technology could include route planning software for delivery companies, transportation companies, ride-sharing services, and fleet management companies.
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art could be existing route planning software that takes into account vehicle characteristics but may not utilize anonymized vehicle identifiers for customized route suggestions.
Unanswered Questions
How does the electronic device anonymize vehicle identifiers?
The patent application mentions anonymizing vehicle identifiers, but it does not provide details on the specific method or technology used for this process.
What sources are considered external for receiving vehicle data?
The abstract mentions receiving data for vehicles from an external source, but it does not specify what sources are considered external in this context.
Original Abstract Submitted
In some embodiments, an electronic device displays suggested routes based on the characteristics of respective vehicles. In some embodiments, an electronic device receives data for respective vehicles from a source external to the electronic device. In some embodiments, an electronic device anonymizes a vehicle identifier and determines customized suggested routes using the anonymized vehicle identifier. In some embodiments, Starting Charge Maps and/or Buffer Maps are generated and/or utilized for route generation or suggestion.
