Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for improving the operating range of an electric vehicle having an engine wherein waste heat generated during motor operation is transferred to pre-heat the engine. Engine starting is predicted based on the electrical torque demand of the vehicle relative to the actual and predicted electrical energy consumption of the electric vehicle. Prior to starting the engine to charge a battery of the motor, various engine components are pre-heated in an order that improves vehicle range while also optimizing fuel economy.

Abstract: Among other things, one or more techniques and/or systems are provided for personalized vehicle management. A current location of a vehicle may be received. A route of the vehicle may be determined based upon a trip library and/or the current location. The trip library may correspond to routes travelled by the user above a travel frequency threshold. A route segment (e.g., a portion of the route that the vehicle will travel within a threshold duration) may be identified. A route segment characteristic (e.g., a weather characteristic, a physical characteristic, a traffic characteristic, etc.) of the route segment may be determined. The route segment characteristic may be provided to a driver assistance component of the vehicle. The driver assistance component may be instructed to alter functionality of the vehicle using a vehicle operational parameter derived from the route segment characteristic.

Abstract: A sightline estimation system includes a sightline detection unit, a related information acquisition unit, a holding unit, which holds sightline information, and a difference extraction unit. The difference extraction unit performs a selection process to select, from the related information held in the holding unit, the related information corresponding to the related information acquired at the time of current detection of a sightline of the driver and also extracts the difference between the distribution of sightlines of the driver acquired from the sightline information associated with the selected related information and the distribution of the sightlines acquired within a predetermined period including the current detection of the sightline. The sightline estimation system further includes a sightline estimation unit.

Abstract: A method for computationally predicting future movement behavior of a target object and program includes producing sensor data by at least one sensor physically sensing the environment of a host vehicle, and computing a plurality of movement behavior alternatives of the target object sensed by the sensors. The computing includes predicting movement behaviors of the target object applying context based prediction using at least one indirect indicator and/or indicator combinations derived from senor data. In the context based prediction, a probability that the target object will execute a movement behavior is estimated. A future position of the target object is estimated and a signal representing the estimated future position is outputted. At least one history indicator for a movement behavior alternative is generated for a current point in time using at least one indicator of an indirect indicator at a point in the past.

Abstract: A vehicle comprising a power train, a drive train, a sensor interface, a storage device and a processing device. The sensor interface may be configured to receive sensor data samples during operation of a vehicle. The storage device may be configured to store the sensor data samples over a number of points in time. The processing device may be configured to analyze the sensor data samples stored in the storage device to detect a pattern and adjust an amount of power applied to the power train of the vehicle in response to the pattern. The pattern may be used to determine current conditions for the vehicle. The amount of power may be adjusted to reduce energy loss.
