发明名称 LANE SUGGESTION SYSTEMS
摘要 A lane suggestion system for a vehicle is provided including a GPS unit and a processor in communication with the GPS unit, the processor configured to determine a first optimal lane of travel based on information received from the GPS unit, the processor configured to continuously monitor changes to vehicle data and external data. A second optimal lane based on the change in the vehicle data or the external data may be calculated by the processor. If the second optimal lane is most efficient, faster and/or safer as compared to the first optimal lane, then the second optimal lane is communicated to a user of the vehicle. If the first optimal lane of travel is the most efficient, faster and/or safer compared to the second optimal lane, then the first optimal lane of travel is continuously communicated to the user of the vehicle.

主权项 1. A lane suggestion system for a vehicle comprising: a GPS unit; and a processor in communication with the GPS unit, the processor configured to determine a first preferred lane of travel based on information received from the GPS unit, the processor configured to continuously monitor changes to vehicle data and external data; wherein if a change in either the vehicle data or the external data is detected by the processor, the processor calculates a second optimal lane based on the change in the vehicle data or the external data and preselected criteria, if the second optimal lane best meets the preselected criteria as compared to the first optimal lane, the second optimal lane is communicated to a user of the vehicle; if the first optimal lane of travel best meets the preselected criteria as compared to the second optimal lane, the first optimal lane of travel is communicated to the user of the vehicle.
