This invention describes a system that helps vehicle users plan trips by showing them available resources along different travel routes. It receives a user's origin and destination from their vehicle's onboard computer, calculates various routes, and then identifies places like gas stations or charging points along each route, along with the resources they offer. The user can select a route, potentially influencing the route based on desired resources, and the system then provides information about the chosen resources to their vehicle's computer.
Why it matters: Filed before the significant growth in EV adoption and real-time charging network data. The claims cover dynamic resource allocation, which is now crucial for managing EV range anxiety and optimizing charging stops.
