  • Driving evaluation system and vehicle-mounted device
    Patent number: 8909464
    Abstract: A driving evaluation system that divides a traveling route of a vehicle into a plurality of sections and evaluates the driving of a driver of the vehicle includes: a driving data acquiring unit that acquires driving data of the driver for each section; a determining unit that determines whether the driving data acquired by the driving data acquiring unit satisfies the evaluation conditions set to each section; and an upload unit that uploads the driving data to a center which evaluates driving when the determining unit determines that the driving data satisfies the evaluation conditions.

  • DRIVING EVALUATION SYSTEM, VEHICLE-MOUNTED MACHINE, AND INFORMATION PROCESSING CENTER
    Publication number: 20120232741
    Abstract: An eco-driving probability density estimation unit and an eco-driving awareness pre-learning unit resets an evaluation standard of driving of a driver of a host vehicle for each condition in which the host vehicle is driven for each driving evaluation. Therefore, it becomes possible to set the evaluation standard of the driving in accordance with an actual condition during evaluation compared to a case where the standard for uniformly evaluating the driving is set. An eco-driving capability/proficiency estimation unit and an eco-driving awareness estimation unit evaluate the driving of the driver of the host vehicle by the evaluation standard reset by the eco-driving probability density estimation unit and the eco-driving awareness pre-learning unit. Therefore, it becomes possible to perform driving evaluation more suitable for the actual condition.
