A method for operating a fleet of vehicles is provided comprising receiving, from a first vehicle of the fleet of vehicles, first vehicle state information comprising a location of the first vehicle and receiving, from a second vehicle of the fleet of vehicles, second vehicle state information comprising a location of the second vehicle. The method further comprises generating a display comprising a first vehicle representation based on the location of the first vehicle, and a second vehicle representation based on the location of the second vehicle, and controlling the operation of the second vehicle within an area defined by an overlap of a second geofence based upon an energy estimate of the second vehicle with a first geofence based upon the first vehicle.

Method of operation for a fleet of vehicles

A vehicle control system is disclosed for modifying vehicle operation and includes an engine control unit having at least one processor. A vehicle network is provided as well as a first handheld wireless device having a GPS module, a local wireless communication module, and a distance wireless communication module. A gauge has a wireless communication module operable to communicate with the first handheld wireless device and at least one display for communicating information to a user regarding vehicle operating parameters. Memory accessible by the processor and memory having software stored thereon are provided, the software being configured for execution by the processor and including instructions for providing a boundary map within which the vehicle may operate under normal operating conditions. The vehicle is placed in a degraded operating mode if the vehicle moves outside of the boundary.

Device and method for supervising and modifying vehicle operation

A programming device includes an application for programming vehicle function settings of a vehicle. The programming device has a transmitter that communicates the vehicle function settings through a vehicle receiver to a vehicle controller. The vehicle function settings cause the controller to operate the vehicle when a device identifier is received from a moveable device associated with a vehicle user.

Connected helmet system and method of operating the same

Disclosed is a wheeled vehicle. The wheeled vehicle includes various features for operation by a rider, such as a throttle actuation assembly and various components for operation and manipulation of the vehicle.

Powered vehicle

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to youth electric recreational vehicles. In an exemplary embodiment, a youth recreational vehicle, comprises: one or more front ground engaging members, one or more rear ground engaging members, and a frame supported by the one or more front ground engaging members and the one or more rear ground engaging members. In addition, the youth recreational vehicle comprises a seat supported by the frame and configured to support at least one rider and an electric powertrain. The electric powertrain is configured to drive at least one of: (i) the one or more front ground engaging members and (ii) the one or more rear ground engaging members. The electric powertrain comprises: a controller, at least one electric motor, and at least one battery pack.

Youth electric vehicle

A system for controlling a vehicle includes a programming device comprising an application for programming vehicle function settings of a vehicle. The programming device has a transmitter communicating the vehicle function settings of the vehicle. A vehicle receiver is disposed within the vehicle. The vehicle receiver receives the vehicle function settings. A vehicle is controller disposed within the vehicle. A helmet generates a helmet movement signal in response to sensing movement of the helmet. The helmet communicates a helmet identifier to the vehicle controller through the receiver in response to the helmet movement signal. The vehicle controller controls a vehicle function in response to the vehicle function settings.

A vehicle is electrically connected to one or more accessories. The vehicle includes at least one controller that may be configured to identify the accessory based on accessory identification information. The controller may also be configured to provide one or more commands to control an operation of the accessory.

Managing recreational vehicles and accessories

A system for regulating the speed of a vehicle includes defining a first border for a first geographic region. The border has a first speed within the border and a second speed outside of the border. The system includes determining a first velocity of the vehicle including a vehicle speed and direction of the vehicle approaching the border. The difference between the vehicle speed and the second speed is the calculated, as is a distance between the vehicle and the border. If the difference between the vehicle speed and the second speed divided by the distance is greater than a predetermined value, the vehicle is decelerated at a rate so that the vehicle will have a second speed when the vehicle reaches the border.

Method and system for controlling the speed of a vehicle

Systems and methods for communicating information related to a wearable device are disclosed. Exemplary information includes audio information.

Systems and methods for communicating information

Motorized vehicle

A helmet for communicating with a vehicle function controller and method for operating the same has a first memory, a first transmitter, a first receiver and a first controller in communication with the first memory, the first transmitter and the first receiver. The first receiver receives a plurality of vehicle function settings. The first memory stores the vehicle function settings within a memory of the helmet. The first transmitter communicates the vehicle function settings from the first memory to the vehicle function controller.

An all-terrain vehicle includes a plurality of ground-engaging members and a frame supported by the plurality of ground-engaging members and having a front end and a rear end. The all-terrain vehicle further includes a straddle seat coupled to the frame and an attachment rack supported by the frame. The attachment rack has a first portion which defines an outer surface of the attachment rack and is comprised of a first material and a second portion which is positioned at least partially inward of the first portion and is comprised of a second material.
