Abstract: A method for resetting an SOC of a battery in a hybrid vehicle includes calculating a first SOC value of the battery after the hybrid vehicle starts. A second SOC value of the battery is calculated using an open circuit voltage (OCV) of the battery. The second SOC value of the battery and a third SOC value for vehicle start-up are compared with each other, an SOC value of a battery management system is reset to the third SOC value when the second SOC value of the battery is smaller than the third SOC value, and the SOC value of the battery management system is reset to the second SOC value of the battery when the second SOC value of the battery is larger than the third SOC value.

Abstract: A network of collection, charging and distribution machines collect, charge and distribute portable electrical energy storage devices (e.g., batteries, supercapacitors or ultracapacitors). Locations of collection, charging and distribution machines having available charged portable electrical energy storage devices are communicated to or acquired by a mobile device of a user, or displayed on a collection, charging and distribution machine. The locations are indicated on a graphical user interface on a map on a user's mobile device relative to the user's current location. The user may use their mobile device select particular locations on the map to reserve an available portable electrical energy storage device. The system nay also warn the user that the user is near an edge of the pre-determined area having portable electrical energy storage device collection, charging and distribution machines. Reservations may also be made automatically based on information regarding a potential route of a user.

Abstract: A signal generator generates an electrical signal that is sent to an amplifier, which increases the power of the signal using power from a power source. The amplified signal is fed to a sender transducer to generate ultrasonic waves that can be focused and sent to a receiver. The receiver transducer converts the ultrasonic waves back into electrical energy and stores it in an energy storage device, such as a battery, or uses the electrical energy to power a device. In this way, a device can be remotely charged or powered without having to be tethered to an electrical outlet.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for control schemes and intelligent battery selection for electric vehicles. In one embodiment, an example method may include determining a first charge level of a first battery system that is configured to power a homopolar generator, causing the first battery system to be charged by a power input source, and determining that a second charge level of the first battery system is greater than a first threshold value. Example methods may include causing the first battery system to power the homopolar generator, wherein the homopolar generator is configured to output charging current to a second battery system, causing the solid state relay to form a parallel connection between a first battery, a second battery, and the homopolar generator, directing a first charging current from the homopolar generator to the first battery, and directing a second charging current from the homopolar generator to the second battery.
