  • Patent number: 9128115
    Abstract: In accordance with the present inventive concept, there is provided a method for evaluating deceleration of a vehicle. The method comprises: measuring a deceleration of the vehicle during a first time interval, estimating a speed of the vehicle at a first time instant in a second time interval, which is different from the first time interval, based on the measured deceleration, measuring a speed of the vehicle at the first time instant, comparing the estimated speed to the measured speed, and generating a signal based on the comparison. There is also provided an apparatus for evaluating deceleration of a vehicle.

  • Publication number: 20080270519
    Abstract: A method for distributing vehicle driving information comprises: receiving from each of different users of vehicles (n?1, n, n+1) information (in?1, in, in+1) regarding the driving by the user as sensed by sensors (sn?1,sn, sn+1) mounted in the vehicle; storing each of the information; and giving access or transmitting to each of several service providers (N?1, N, N+1) a different portion (pn?1,n?1pn?1, N pn?1, N+1? pn, N?1 pn, N?pn, N+1?pn+1, N?1?pn+1,N+1) of the stored information at a selected repetition rate. Each of the service providers (N?1, N, N+1) has obtained an authorization (an-1 an,N,an, N+1) provided voluntarily by each one of the users to access the information in return for providing the user with feedback (fn, N?1, fn,N,fn, N+1) regarding the driving by the user, where each of the information includes information regarding speed and acceleration of the vehicle, and the feedback includes information as to how to lower the fuel consumption.
