PERSONAL PROFILES BASED SYSTEM FOR SPEED LIMIT ENFORCING AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF

摘要

A speed-limit-enforcing system for enforcing speed limit on a vehicle hosting the system, and methods of using thereof. The system includes a speed-limit controller, a drivers' profile DB, a driver-identifier and a throttle controller. The speed-limit profile of each driver is predefined by a master user, wherein a driver may not alter his speed-limit profile. The driver-identifier identifies the current driver, wherein the drivers' profile DB includes a speed-limit profile of that current driver. The speed-limit controller, being a personal mobile device, derives a current speed limit from rules defined in the speed-limit profile of the current driver, wherein the speed-limit controller activates the throttle controller to limit the fuel supply to the engine of the vehicle, such that the current velocity of the vehicle, provided by an external source, does not exceed the current speed limit.

1. A speed-limit-enforcing system for enforcing a speed limit on a vehicle hosting the system, the system comprising:
a speed-limit controller; a drivers' profile DB; a driver-identifier; and a throttle controller, wherein said speed-limit controller activates said driver-identifier to identify the current driver of the vehicle; wherein said drivers' profile DB comprises a speed-limit profile of the current driver; wherein said speed-limit profile of each driver is predefined by a master user of the speed-limit enforcing system, and wherein the drivers may not alter any of said speed-limit profiles; wherein said speed-limit controller is a personal user-smart-mobile device, having a driver-application running thereon; wherein said speed-limit controller derives a current speed limit from rules defined in said speed-limit profile of said identified current driver; and wherein said speed-limit controller is adapted to activate said throttle controller to limit the fuel supply to the engine of the vehicle, such that the current velocity of the vehicle, provided by an external source, does not exceed said current speed limit.
