AUTOMATED SETTING OF CRUISING SPEEDS

摘要

An approach to setting a cruise control speed based on identifying a vehicle operator and analyzing metadata associated with the vehicle operator. The identity of the vehicle operator and any passengers is determined based on identity sensors in the vehicle or by manual identity entry. Metadata, associated with the vehicle operator, is retrieved from the metadata database, located either locally or remotely. The metadata is analyzed based on factors such as the current route and the identity of any passengers. The cruise control speed is set based on the results of the analysis. Any changes to the setting are updated in the metadata database.

主权项

1. A computer system for setting a cruise control speed, the computer system comprising:
one or more computer processors; one or more computer readable storage media; program instructions stored on the one or more computer readable storage media for execution by at least one of the one or more computer processors, the program instructions comprising:
program instructions to determine an identity of an operator of a vehicle and one or more passengers of the vehicle based on at least one of a manually entered identity and one or more identity sensors associated with the vehicle wherein the one or more identity sensors comprise biometric sensors and cameras for facial recognition and the identity sensors are installed in at least one of a passenger compartment associated with the vehicle or a remote device disposed within the vehicle;program instructions to retrieve metadata associated with the identity wherein the metadata comprises one or more speed settings based on a travel route, the identity of the operator and the identity of the one or more passengers;program instructions to set a cruise control speed based on an analysis of the metadata wherein the analysis comprises selecting the cruise control speed based on the identity of the operator and the identity of the one or more passengers of the vehicle; andprogram instructions to update the metadata, associated with the operator, with speed setting changes made by the operator wherein the metadata is stored on at least one of a metadata database associated with the vehicle and a metadata database associated with a server communicatively connected to the vehicle.
