System and method for driver pattern recognition, identification, and prediction
First Claim
1. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions which, when executed by one or more processors of a vehicle, cause the vehicle to perform a method of recognizing a driving pattern of the vehicle, the method comprising the steps of:
- during a first time period;
determining an identity of a driver of the vehicle by recognizing one or more of first biometric data, a first image of a face, a first key fob, and a first mobile device;
receiving driver input data for controlling the vehicle,receiving first sensor information, the first sensor information comprising first location information, from one or more sensors of the vehicle;
recognizing a driving pattern based on the identity of the driver, the driver input and the first sensor information;
storing private location information including a location of a private road associated with the identity of the driver; and
during a second time period after the first time period;
determining the identity of the driver of the vehicle by recognizing one or more of second biometric data, a second image of the face, a second key fob, and a second mobile device;
receiving second sensor information, the second sensor information comprising second location information, from the one or more sensors of the vehicle; and
in accordance with the second location information matching the first location information in the driving pattern, triggering an action based on the driver input data received during the first time period, wherein recognizing the driving pattern includes storing the driver input data in association with the identity of the driver and one or both of the first sensor information and a timestamp associated with the first time period, and wherein triggering the action includes supplementing public map information with the private location information including the location of the private road and opening a private garage door associated with the identity of the driver of the vehicle.

Abstract
Examples of the present invention are directed to a method and system of recognizing a driving pattern of a vehicle. Driver input controlling the vehicle can be received and stored in association with various sensor information (e.g., GPS location, camera data, radar data, etc.) and a timestamp. Then, driving patterns can be recognized from the stored information. For example, preferred routes, destinations, driving speeds, driving styles, etc. can be recognized. The driving patterns can be used by automated driving or driving assistance systems to automatically drive on preferred routes or to preferred destinations.

10. A vehicle, comprising:
-
one or more processors; a memory storing instructions, which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the vehicle to perform a method of recognizing a driving pattern of the vehicle, the method comprising the steps of; during a first time period; determining an identity of a driver of the vehicle by recognizing one or more of first biometric data, a first image of a face, a first key fob, and a first mobile device; receiving driver input data for controlling the vehicle; receiving first sensor information, the first sensor information comprising first location information, from one or more sensors of the vehicle; recognizing a driving pattern based on the identity of the driver, the driver input and the first sensor information; storing private location information including a location of a private road associated with the identity of the driver; and during a second time period after the first time period; determining an identity of a driver of the vehicle by recognizing one or more of second biometric data, a second image of the face, a second key fob, and a second mobile device; receiving second sensor information, the second sensor information comprising second location information, from the one or more sensors of the vehicle; and in accordance with the second location information matching the first location information in the driving pattern, triggering an action based on the driver input data received during the first time period, wherein recognizing the driving pattern includes storing the driver input data in association with the identity of the driver and one or both of the first sensor information and a timestamp associated with the first time period, and wherein triggering the action includes supplementing public map information with the private location information including the location of the private road and opening a private garage door associated with the identity of the driver of the vehicle. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
