Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable medium for displaying a virtual space are provided. The system for displaying a virtual space includes a graphical user interface and a controller. The controller is programmed to receive user information from a user profile, wherein the user information comprises a user location, a user design preference, and at least one user metric. The controller is also programmed to determine display conditions based on the user information, determine user accessibility to virtual features based on the at least one user metric, and display the virtual space including the virtual features on the graphical user interface based on the display conditions and the user accessibility. The virtual space is displayed as a virtual 3D rendered image.

Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer- readable mediums for displaying a virtual space using user information

An example operation includes one or more of: determining a first subgroup of a group of vehicles and a second subgroup of the group of vehicles, wherein the second subgroup has a higher carbon footprint than the first subgroup; and determining a driving behavior modification of a vehicle in the second subgroup based on a driving behavior of one or more vehicles in the first subgroup.

Ranking carbon footprints of vehicles to determine driving behavior modifications

An example operation includes one or more of determining a first carbon footprint of a first mode of transportation and a second carbon footprint of a second mode of transportation, where the first mode of transportation is a primary mode of transportation and the second carbon footprint is less than the first carbon footprint, responsive to the first carbon footprint being above a threshold, calculating a period of time the second mode of transportation is utilized to negate an amount above the threshold, and sending a notification to use the second mode of transportation for the period of time.

Vehicle carbon footprint management

Systems and methods are provided for operating a vehicle using dynamic speed limits. A vehicle can monitor current road conditions by capturing real-time data that is indicative of a driving environment associated with a roadway being traversed by the vehicle. Using the captured real-time data, the vehicle can predict a dynamic speed limit, wherein the dynamic speed limit is a driving speed for the vehicle that is adapted for the monitored current road conditions. Additionally, the vehicle can automatically perform a driving operation for the vehicle in accordance with the dynamic speed limit, wherein the driving operation causes the vehicle to move at a driving speed that is approximately equal to the predicted dynamic speed limit.

Dynamic speed limit for vehicles and autonomous vehicles

A vehicle includes a system for recording and analyzing user preferences during a vehicle test drive. The system includes a processor and a memory that stores processor-readable instructions. When executed by the processor, the processor-readable instructions cause the system to: determine a user identity; create a user preference profile based on the user identity; communicate a prerecorded message describing one or more vehicle options to the user; record a user response of the user in response to the prerecorded message; analyze the recorded user response; and update the user preference profile based on the analysis of the recorded user response.

Systems and methods for making vehicle purchase recommendations based on a user preference profile

A system and method for tracking and validating value of a vehicle, includes a memory device, a wireless communication device, authentication processor that authenticates the vehicle and generates one or more security keys, and a processor maintaining a token linked to the vehicle that designates the vehicle as a stake. The processor executes instructions to when a condition change event of the vehicle occurs, receive information of a change of state from the vehicle, generate a message including the change of state information, sign the message with a private key, transmit the signed message using the wireless communication device, choosing a node of a blockchain distributed network, evaluating, via the chosen node, the signed message in accordance with distributed contract rules to determine an updated token value and a residual token, and receive and maintain the updated token value and the residual token.

Vehicle value as a token

A system for a vehicle includes one or more processors, one or more memory modules, and machine readable instructions stored in the one or more memory modules. The machine readable instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the system to: receive one or more images from one or more imaging sensors in the vehicle; identify a first object in a rear seat of the vehicle based on the one or more images; identify a second object attached to the first object based on the one or more images; determine whether the second object is in a set of objects; and output an alert in response to determining that the second object is in the set of objects.
