ONE-PEDAL DRIVING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240278795 titled 'ONE-PEDAL DRIVING

The patent application describes a system for controlling the acceleration of a vehicle using a controller and multiple vehicle sensors to determine the state of the accelerator pedal activation.

  • The system can identify an accelerator pedal activation stimulus when the pedal is in a deactivated state, using the vehicle sensors.
  • Upon detecting the activation stimulus, the controller switches the accelerator pedal state to activated.
  • This innovation aims to improve the efficiency and safety of vehicle acceleration by responding to specific stimuli.

Potential Applications: - Automotive industry for improving vehicle acceleration control systems. - Transportation sector for enhancing driver experience and safety.

Problems Solved: - Enhances vehicle acceleration control. - Improves response time to accelerator pedal activation stimuli.

Benefits: - Increased efficiency in vehicle acceleration. - Enhanced safety features for drivers and passengers.

Commercial Applications: Acceleration control systems for various vehicles, including cars, trucks, and buses, to optimize performance and safety.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does this system compare to existing acceleration control technologies? 2. What are the potential implications for autonomous vehicles with this innovation?

Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on advancements in vehicle acceleration control systems and safety features to incorporate the latest technologies into this innovation.


Original Abstract Submitted

a system for controlling acceleration of a vehicle includes a plurality of vehicle sensors and a controller in electrical communication with the plurality of vehicle sensors. the controller is programmed to determine an accelerator pedal activation state. the accelerator pedal activation state includes an accelerator pedal activated state and an accelerator pedal deactivated state. the controller is further programmed to identify an accelerator pedal activation stimulus in response to determining that the accelerator pedal activation state is the accelerator pedal deactivated state. the accelerator pedal activation stimulus is identified using the plurality of vehicle sensors. the controller is further programmed to determine the accelerator pedal activation state to be the accelerator pedal activated state in response to identifying the accelerator pedal activation stimulus.
