Vehicle and method of advising a driver therein
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for advising a driver of a vehicle comprising:
- generating a categorization of a driver'"'"'s dynamic control of the vehicle;
predicting an acceleration of the vehicle;
determining whether the predicted acceleration is greater than a threshold acceleration; and
activating a haptic interface before an acceleration of the vehicle exceeds the threshold acceleration when the predicted acceleration is greater than the threshold acceleration, wherein the threshold acceleration is based on the categorization.

Abstract
A vehicle may include a driver interface and at least one controller operatively arranged with the interface. The at least one controller may be configured to determine a speed and acceleration of the vehicle, to predict a time until a future speed of the vehicle exceeds a predefined speed based on the predefined speed and the speed and acceleration of the vehicle, and to issue an alert via the interface if the time is less than a predefined time.

3. A method for advising a driver of a vehicle comprising:
-
generating a categorization of a driver'"'"'s dynamic control of the vehicle; and in response to a predicted acceleration of the vehicle being greater than a threshold acceleration that is based on the categorization, generating an alert for the driver before an acceleration of the vehicle exceeds the threshold acceleration. - View Dependent Claims (4, 5)
