Fuel efficiency driver assistance system for manufacturer independent solutions

Energy efficiency has become a major issue in modern trade, business and environmental perception. While the next generation of zero emission propulsion systems are still under development, it is already possible to increase fuel efficiency in regular vehicles by applying a more fuel efficient driving behaviour. This particularly holds true for transport companies, where even small percentage savings can accumulate to huge absolute savings. Although there are common fuel efficiency guidelines, they are often imprecise and not adapted to a specific vehicle. Furthermore drivers may not even know the fuel efficiency rules or lack the motivation to apply them in practice. In this paper, an online driving assistance system is presented that assist drivers during their journeys by giving them fuel efficiency guidelines that are suited for the current situation and vehicle. The driver assistance system uses an internal manufacturer independent model that can adapt to the current vehicle solely based on online CAN-Bus data.
