US Patent 11183082 Systems and methods for sharing driver coaching data

Systems and methods of sharing driver coaching data are provided. Driver coaching systems learn the characteristics of a deceleration or acceleration event. Driver coaching data may be determined with the goal of increasing operating efficiency, such as recouping energy while operating a vehicle that can recapture energy. Coaching cues are provided to the driver so that the vehicle can be operated in a way that achieves the goal of increasing recouped energy. Driver coaching data can also be shared. For example, an estimated operating efficiency that is associated with previously operating a first vehicle based on previous coaching data can be compared to a measured operating efficiency associated with currently operation a second vehicle. Based on the comparison, coaching cues may be presented to the drive of the second vehicle without the second vehicle having to perform its own learning process for the driver coaching function.
