An optimization system includes a processor configured to receive one or more criteria for optimizing use of a power storage device in an application device, to receive data comprising at least one of user input(s), data from a cloud, and data regarding the application device, and to determine a charging/discharging profile for charging or discharging the power storage device from the received data based on the one or more criteria. The optimization system further includes an output configured to output the charging/discharging profile. The processor is configured to receive user feedback regarding the charging/discharging profile, machine learning data, big data, and/or a change regarding the optimization system and/or the application device, and to update the charging/discharging profile based on the received at least one of the user feedback regarding the charging/discharging profile, machine learning data, big data and the change regarding the optimization system and/or the application device.

An optical sensor for estimating positions of rotors in a motor comprises an optical source () and a plurality of photo detectors (), the motor further has stators and is used for e-machines, the optical source () is mounted on the surface of the rotor where the air gap is big enough to not block magnetic flux between the rotors and the stators, the photo detectors () are arranged evenly around the stator tooth slots and configured to detect light emitted by the optical source () and output parameters which are used to estimate the positions of rotors. The proposed low cost optical sensor measures the angular position of rotating e-machine when sensorless control algorithm is applied but limited by response time at high speed region. The optical sensor only adds small cost and provides rotor position information with enough accuracy for FOC control at high rotational speed. A method for estimating positions of rotors in a motor and a motor comprising the optical sensor are also provided.
