Electric Vehicle Virtual Mobility Playback Without User Selection
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing battery electric vehicles lack the ability to simulate multiple vehicle characteristics, such as engine sounds and acceleration feelings, without requiring user selection, which can be cumbersome and reduce user satisfaction.
Innovation Solution
A battery electric vehicle system that reproduces characteristics of multiple virtual vehicles using a processor to read information from a registration medium, allowing automatic selection and simulation of desired vehicle characteristics without user input, including sound and driving sensations.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the system provides multiple virtual mobility options for user selection, then the adaptability and user preference satisfaction are improved, but the operation complexity and user effort increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically selects and reproduces virtual mobility characteristics based on information acquired from external media without requiring user selection operations. The battery electric vehicle's processor autonomously determines which virtual mobility to simulate by reading designation information from the medium, thereby providing adaptability while eliminating the need for user selection effort.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the system requires user selection of virtual mobility, then the user can choose preferred characteristics, but the time and effort for selection increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary action by automatically acquiring virtual mobility designation information from external media and reproducing the selected virtual mobility characteristics without requiring user selection. This preliminary automatic selection process eliminates the time users would otherwise spend on manual selection while still providing access to multiple virtual mobility options.
