Method and system of route scheduling and presenting route-based fuel information

摘要

A system of route scheduling for a vehicle presents fuel information for a vehicle. The system receives vehicle related drive information and fuel information from the vehicle via a vehicle interface, including fuel tank capacity, a current fuel level, and fuel economy, calculates routes to points from a current vehicle position based on the drive related information of sensors, estimates first fuel amounts for reaching the points based on the calculated routes and the fuel economy, selects fuel stations within a predetermined range of the calculated routes based on their locations, estimates second fuel amounts for reaching the fuel stations based on their locations, the fuel economy and the current vehicle position, obtains fuel prices of the fuel stations from a network, and instructs a screen to display the fuel prices, the point information, the locations of the fuel stations, the fuel tank capacity and the current fuel level along with a segment.

主权项

1. A method of displaying fuel information for a vehicle, comprising:
obtaining fuel tank capacity information of the vehicle; obtaining current fuel level information of the vehicle; obtaining fuel economy information of the vehicle; obtaining point information of one or more points, each point information of each point comprising location information; measuring, by a position measuring device which includes a GPS (Global Positioning System) receiver, a current vehicle position based on GPS signals; calculating routes to the one or more points based on location information of the one or more points and the current vehicle position; estimating first fuel amounts for reaching the one or more points based on the calculated routes, fuel economy information; selecting one or more fuel stations within a predetermined range of the calculated routes based on location information of the one or more fuel stations; estimating second fuel amounts for reaching at the one or more fuel stations based on the obtained locations of the fuel stations, the fuel economy information and the current vehicle position; obtaining fuel price information of the one or more fuel stations from a network; and displaying, on a display screen, the point information, the locations of the fuel stations, the fuel price information, the fuel tank capacity information and the current fuel level information along one or more segments of parameter.
