Abstract: A charging system controls an optimum charging process of an at least partially electrically operated vehicle. The electrically operated vehicle has an energy accumulator. The charging system has at least one power source with which the energy accumulator is connected and can be charged, and at least one back end server which can automatically determine an optimum charging plan for charging the energy accumulator based at least on technical state data of the vehicle and an electricity rate that is assigned to the energy source. In this way, when the energy accumulator is connected to the power source, the technical state data of the vehicle is automatically transmitted to the back end server. After the back end server receives the technical status data of the vehicle, the back end server determines the optimum charging plan. The back end server can control the charging process of the energy accumulator according to the optimum charging plan.

Abstract: A charging station can be autonomously coupled to an electric vehicle. Sensors on the vehicle determine a location of the vehicle, and the vehicle is positioned within a connection envelope. A travel path for bringing a charging connector into contact with a charging port on the vehicle can be determined, and then the travel path is autonomously carried out.

Abstract: This application discusses various ways to adjust the performance of a variable input control in accordance with previous use data. In some embodiments, the previous use data can be associated with particular users of the variable input control. In this way, a response provided by the user input control can be adjusted to accommodate particular patterns of use on a user by user basis. In some embodiments, the variable input control can take the form of an accelerator pedal of a vehicle. Performance of the accelerator pedal can be adjusted by changing an amount of engine power provided for a particular accelerator pedal position. The adjustment can arrange commonly utilized power settings in the middle of the accelerator pedal range of motion to make manipulation of the accelerator pedal more comfortable and convenient for each user of the accelerator pedal.

Abstract: A smart braking system for a vehicle is provided. The smart braking system selectively activates a braking system of the vehicle when the smart braking system detects a scenario in which it is likely that a constant vehicle speed, rather than an increasing vehicle speed, would be desired by a driver. In one example, a driver releases an accelerator while the vehicle is on a decline but the vehicle accelerates anyway. In this instance, the smart braking system records the speed of the vehicle when the accelerator is released and applies the braking system to maintain the speed of the vehicle at the recorded speed while the vehicle is on the decline. The smart braking system stops activating the braking system upon detecting that braking is no longer needed to slow down the vehicle.
