Vehicle operation control system for a dynamic and transformative vehicle system
A dynamic and transformative vehicle system (DTVS) consists of a driving module and different types of non-driving vehicle modules. When given a command via a wired or wireless control device the vehicle modules shall be automatically configured into one vehicle with a minimum of two axles or detached back to individual vehicle module. Once coupling and configuration process is completed, a vehicle operational control system of the dynamic and transformative system in the driving module is programmed to dynamically activate all the vehicle control and interactive user interface, operational and safety functions configured for specific module types and models coupled and configured.
1. A dynamic and transformative vehicle system including:
a driving module having at least one axle and a non-driving module having at least one axle,
a processor in the non-driving module;
a vehicle operation control system in the driving module comprising:
an interactive digital console screen;
a graphical user interface (GUI) module:
a processor in the driving module; and
a memory including processor-readable instructions, when executed by the processor in driving module, causes the processor in driving module to:
receive an indication that a coupling and configuration process between the driving module and the non-driving module is complete,
perform a first verification operation to verify proper connections between the driving module and the non-driving module,
perform a second verification operation to verify a locking mechanism connecting the driving module and non-driving module is locked, and
transmit information indicating the first verification operation and the second verification operation are complete to a graphical user interface (GUI) module of the vehicle operation control system in the driving module;
receive identification and status information from the non-driving module,
generate a representative image of a coupled vehicle including the driving module coupled to the non-driving module,
transmit information representative of:
the representative image,
an estimated battery status, and
an estimated driving range to the GUI module for display on the console screen, and
display interactive vehicle operation control functions referencing the representative image on the interactive digital console screen.
2. The vehicle system of claim 1 , further comprising instructions operative to cause the processor in the driving module to initiate an autopilot function and a full self-driving (FSD) function.
3. The vehicle system of claim 1 , further comprising instructions operative to cause the processor to synchronize a braking system on the driving module and a braking system on the non-driving module in order to distribute braking power.
4. The vehicle system of claim 1 , further comprising instructions operative to:
cause the processor in the driving module to activate procedures configured for specific vehicle models;
send commands to an independent suspension system on the driving module and an independent suspension system on the non-driving module in response to road conditions.
5. The vehicle system of claim 1 , further comprising instructions operative to cause the processor in the driving module to adjust a chassis of the coupled vehicle to ground clearance height.
6. The vehicle system of claim 1 , further comprising instructions operative to cause the processor in the driving module to activate and adjust a sensor and/or a camera of the coupled vehicle.
7. The vehicle system of claim 1 , further comprising instructions operative to cause the processor in the driving module to adjust a vehicle signaling system.
8. The vehicle system of claim 1 , further comprising instructions operative to cause the processor in the driving module to activate and adjust sensor and/or camera system of the coupled vehicle for monitoring road and surrounding conditions.
9. The vehicle system of claim 1 , further comprising instructions operative to cause the processor in the driving module to consolidate an electric power supply resource on the driving module and an electric power supply resource on the non-driving module,
wherein the electric power supply resource powers a motor of each wheel on the at least one axle of the driving module and each wheel on the at least one axle of the non-driving module.
10. The vehicle system of claim 1 , further comprising instructions operative to cause the processor to activate an anti-hacking software to prevent malicious attempts and threats from taking over controls of the vehicle system.
11. The vehicle system of claim 1 , further comprising instructions operative to cause the processor in the driving module to:
determine a vehicle model of the coupled vehicle; and
transmit information representative of the vehicle model to the GUI module for display on the console screen.
12. The vehicle system of claim 1 , further comprising instructions operative to cause the processor in the driving module to:
identify a plurality of available driving modes associated with the coupled vehicle;
identify a current driving mode from said plurality of available driving modes; and
transmit information representative of the current driving mode and available driving modes to the GUI module for display on the console screen.
13. The vehicle system of claim 1 ,
wherein the identification and status information include odometer information for the driving module and odometer information for the non-driving module, and further comprising instructions operative to cause the processor in the driving module to:
transmit information representative of said odometer information to the GUI module for display on the console screen.
14. The vehicle system of claim 1 ,
wherein the identification and status information include vehicle license plate information for the driving module and vehicle license plate information non-driving module, and further comprising instructions operative to cause the processor in the driving module to:
transmit information representative of the vehicle license plate information for both the driving module and the non-driving module to the GUI module for display on the console screen.
