    摘要: Tools, techniques, systems, methods and configurations are provided for modifying Low-Cost Attritable Aircraft (LCAA) to fly missions as functional, safe and effective aerial refueling (AR) tankers. The LCAA may be modified with a Selectively-Autonomous Aerial Refueling (SAAR) system, which can be installed in the LCAA to assist pilots and operators with actual AR procedures, to assist pilots and operators who are training to learn how to perform AR procedures, and/or to provide communication nodes in the form of a tactical edge network which is part of a common operational system. For AR training missions, LCAAs may be outfitted with a SAAR system including an aerial refueling store (ARS) buddy pod, such as for situations where fuel will not be offloaded to receiver aircraft.

    摘要: A regenerative braking system for a vehicle includes a means 13 for storing details of one or more deceleration profiles for the vehicle; means for comparing 13, arranged to compare a current braking manoeuvre with the or a selected stored deceleration profile which generates an output signal, during the manoeuvre, representative of any deviation of the deceleration profile of the current braking manoeuvre from the ideal deceleration profile with which it is compared. This output can be used to drive a display 14 to provide feedback to a driver as to the efficiency of a braking manoeuvre. Multiple ideal deceleration profiles may be stored and the system arranged to compare a current braking manoeuvre with the most relevant stored profile. Profiles may be stored in association with spatial, temporal and/or environmental information.

    摘要: A vehicle psychomotor driving skill assessment system includes an on-board inputs group in a vehicle including physiological sensors. An on-board computer receives input from the on-board inputs group. The on-board computer accesses one or more algorithms from a memory to perform a skill test, evaluates skill test data, accesses stored skill test results from previous performed skill tests and saved average skill test results, and generates a current skill test result including a psychomotor ability assessment. A vehicle screen is provided. A skill test image generated by the on-board computer and a current user skill test result including the psychomotor ability assessment are presented on the vehicle screen to assist the user in performing the skill test. The current user skill test result assists the user in determining a user capability to operate the vehicle following the skill test.

    摘要: A system for providing a visual tour guide including driving instruction may include a media database including instructional videos and traditional tour guide and map files. The instructional videos may also include videos generated by a driver in a foreign country with a 360 degree camera. The user may change the field of view to emulate the driver turning their head. Graphics representative of traffic signs and testing material may be overlaid over the video. The system may provide a live stream driving experience. The user provides a desired destination, which is sent to a driver near the destination. The driver may have a 360 degree camera mounted to their vehicle, and the system can transmit the live stream video to the driver. The system may also include a driving environment incorporating VR and/or AR aspects, which may be based on real world traffic or completely simulated.

    摘要: An information processing device includes: an acquisition unit that acquires vehicle information; an evaluation unit that performs evaluation related to driving of a specific driver based on the acquired vehicle information and whether a plurality of evaluation items is good; a reception unit that receives a selection on whether to notify the specific driver of test information regarding a predetermined test regarding driving skills that is conducted by a predetermined organization; and a control unit that performs control for preferentially displaying a specific evaluation item related to a determination item on whether the specific driver is to be subject to the predetermined test over another evaluation item other than the specific evaluation item among the plurality of evaluation items, when a result of the evaluation is displayed on a display unit and the reception unit has received a notification selection for notifying the specific driver of the test information.
