Abstract

The driver's driving behavior will be recorded and a signature will be created either on vehicle or on a cloud data center. The driver signature can be accessed using secure authentication by any vehicle he will be driving. The data collection is a continuous process monitoring driving behavior of the driver. The guidelines from OEM are used to compare driver signature with ideal driving characteristics. Changes are pushed to the vehicle controller to modify controls of individual automotive components to adjust the efficiency of vehicle and improve the ride comfort for the driver. The changes to be made can be decided on a remote cloud system or on the vehicle.
