In a method for calibrating a surroundings sensor for sensory detection of the surroundings of a vehicle, sensor data which are generated with the aid of the surroundings sensor and which correspond to the vehicle surroundings are transmitted to a server situated externally from the vehicle, and the server transmits calibration data generated based on the sensor data and on reference sensor data which correspond to the reference vehicle surroundings associated with the vehicle surroundings to the surroundings sensor. In the case of an unsuccessful sensor calibration, an error signal is transmitted to a control unit which subsequently controls a vehicle component. | ||||||

The vehicle range projection also includes searching, via a computer processor embedded in the vehicle, a database for a record having an identifier that matches an identifier of the key fob. The record stores historical drive cycle data associated with the key fob and the individual. The vehicle range projection further includes retrieving the historical drive cycle data and calculating a projected electric range value indicative of a distance in which the vehicle is capable of traveling on electric-only power. The projected electric range value is calculated as a function of a distance calculated based on available battery charge that is adjusted based on a driving style of the individual. The driving style of the individual is determined from the historical drive cycle data. | ||||||

209 | Method and apparatus for designing and developing a vehicular damper | US10063037 | 2002-03-13 | US07194398B2 | 2007-03-20 | Takeshi Abe |
An assembly 10 which allows a vehicular damper to be virtually created and evaluated. Particularly, the assembly 10 includes a torque producer 31, a frequency filter generator 50, and analyzers 32, 34, 36 and 38. The torque produce 31 selectively produces a torque signal which is combined with a selected frequency filter provided by the generator 50, thereby producing a dampened signal which is communicated to a transmission assembly 14. The analyzer detects noise and vibration and allows a designer to evaluate the chosen frequency filter. Other filters may be used and a filter is selected based upon the noise and vibration measurements made by the analyzers 32, 34, 36, and 38. An actual damper is then constructed having a frequency characteristic which is substantially similar to the frequency characteristic of the chosen frequency filter. | ||||||
