Abstract: To encourage users to improve their carbon footprint, a transport may be provided with an enhanced operating manner in response to external events that lower the carbon footprint of one or more occupants of the transport. Events, such as lowering the energy consumption of a person's home dwelling, may be communicated to the transport and trigger an enhanced mode in the transport, such as an enhanced driving mode (e.g. sport mode) or an enhanced charging mode.

Abstract: An example operation may include one or more of sending, by a master transport, a first portion of a software update to a transport of a first subset of transports, sending, by a master transport, a second portion of the software update to a transport of a further subset of transports, when a first transport of the subset of the transports and a second transport of the further subset of the transports are in proximity, causing the first transport to send the first portion of the software update to the second transport, and causing the second transport to send the second portion of the software update to the first transport.

Abstract: An example operation includes one or more of obtaining a destination of a vehicle, determining an amount of traffic in an area proximate a route to the destination within a time frame, determining a best time to leave in the time frame and a worst time to leave in the time frame, where the best time to leave provides a minimum traffic in the area and the worst time to leave provides a maximum traffic in the area, and determining one or more of a degradation of a battery of the vehicle and an energy usage of the vehicle for one or more of the best time to leave and the worst time to leave.

Abstract: A mesh network system includes an electronic control unit. The electronic control unit selects determines a current motion state of a vehicle of a mesh network. The electronic control unit may calculates radio metric scores for network interfaces. The radio metric scores are weighted based on the current motion. The electronic control unit selects a desired network interface for communications between the vehicles based on the radio metric scores.

Abstract: The system described herein includes a vehicle comprising one or more imaging devices configured to capture one or more images, and a first mobile computing device communicatively coupled to the vehicle. The first mobile computing device includes one or more processors; one or more memory modules; and machine readable and executable instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the first mobile computing device to: receive the one or more images including an external object from the vehicle; process the image to determine an identification of the external object; and transmit information about the identification of the external object to a remote server or the vehicle.

Abstract: A system for controlling operation of a vehicle includes a millimeter-wave radar sensor, a processor, and a memory communicably coupled to the processor. The memory stores a sensor control module configured to control operation of the radar sensor to acquire data for determining and updating a number of occupants in the vehicle. Upon receiving a control command whose execution will result in movement of the vehicle, a pre-movement radar scan of the vehicle interior is performed. Using information acquired by the pre-movement scan, the sensor control module determines if an excessive occupant condition exists in the vehicle interior. Responsive to a determination that an excessive occupant condition exists, the sensor control module may control an operation of the vehicle other than executing the control command.

Abstract: An example operation may include one or more of identifying a target device has entered a transport and has initiated a transport event at a target location, applying permissions, associated with the target device, to the transport event, determining a transport event modification has occurred, when the transport has stopped moving for a predetermined period of time and one or more transport operations have occurred, prior to arriving at a transport event destination, determining whether the permissions permit the transport event modification, and notifying one or more registered devices associated with the target device of the transport event modification.
