EFFICIENCY SCORE TRACKER FOR VEHICLE OPERATIONS
First Claim
1. A system for implementing efficiency score tracking for vehicle operations, comprising:
- a computer processor; and
logic executable by the computer processor, the logic configured to implement a method, the method comprising;
identifying an operator of a vehicle;
at each time increment for a duration of a driving event with respect to the vehicle;
determining mileage accrual and an amount of energy consumed;
calculating an efficiency value as a function of the mileage accrual and the amount of energy consumed;
assigning a point value to the efficiency value;
adding the point value to previous point values, if any, assigned during the driving event; and
displaying a sum of the point value and the previous point values, if any, to the operator in the vehicle, the sum reflecting a cumulative number of points assigned for a corresponding time increment and any previous time increments of the driving event; and
presenting a total point value reflecting a sum of all of the point values assigned to the operator of the vehicle for all of the time increments associated with the driving event.

Abstract
Implementing efficiency score tracking for vehicle operations includes identifying an operator of a vehicle. At each time increment of a driving event, the efficiency score tracking includes determining mileage accrual and energy consumed, calculating an efficiency value as a function of the mileage accrual and the amount of energy consumed, assigning a point value to the efficiency value, adding the point value to previous point values assigned during the driving event, and displaying a sum of the point value and the previous point values to the operator. The sum reflects a cumulative number of points assigned for a corresponding time increment and any previous time increments of the driving event. The efficiency score tracking also includes presenting a total point value reflecting a sum of all of the point values assigned to the operator of the vehicle for all of the time increments associated with the driving event.
