Systems and methods for notification of exceeding speed limits
First Claim
1. A server computing device comprising at least one processor and a memory in communication with the at least one processor, wherein the at least one processor is programmed to:
- receive current speed data associated with a current speed of a wearable notification device from a movable device;
compare the current speed data to speed limit data indicative of a speed limit corresponding to a given road or a path upon which the wearable notification device is travelling; and
transmit a notification signal to the wearable notification device when the current speed exceeds the speed limit, wherein the wearable notification device translates the notification signal into a physical action having an intensity that varies as a function of a difference between the current speed and the speed limit.

Abstract
A wearable device is provided that includes a receiver, a processor, and a transducer. The receiver is configured to receive speed limit data indicative of a posted speed limit corresponding to a route or road upon which the wearable device is traveling. The processor is configured to compare the speed limit to a current speed of the wearable device and/or a vehicle in which the user wearing the wearable device is driving. The transducer is configured to deliver a haptic or other notification to a user upon which the wearable device is worn when the current speed exceeds the speed limit or exceeds the speed limit by a predetermined amount. As a result, safer driving and vehicle collision avoidance may be facilitated. Safe driving auto insurance discounts may be provided to drivers that use the safe driving or speed limit warning functionality discussed herein.

9. A computer-implemented method for notifying a user of exceeding a speed limit corresponding to a road or a path upon which a wearable notification device worn by the user is traveling, the method comprising:
-
receiving, by a server computing device, current speed data associated with a current speed of a wearable notification device from a movable device; comparing the current speed data to speed limit data indicative of a speed limit corresponding to a given road or a path upon which the wearable notification device is travelling; and transmitting, by the server computing device, a notification signal to the wearable notification device when the current speed exceeds the speed limit, wherein the wearable notification device translates the notification signal into a physical action having an intensity that varies as a function of a difference between the current speed and the speed limit. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. At least one non-transitory computer-readable storage media having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon, wherein when executed by at least one processor, the computer-executable instructions cause the at least one processor to:
-
receive current speed data associated with a current speed of a wearable notification device from a movable device; compare the current speed data to speed limit data indicative of a speed limit corresponding to a road or a path upon which the wearable notification device is travelling; and transmit a notification signal to the wearable notification device when the current speed exceeds the speed limit, wherein the wearable notification device translates the notification signal into a physical action having an intensity that varies as a function of a difference between the current speed and the speed limit. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
