Abstract

Methods, devices, and systems are disclosed for home based electric vehicle (EV) charging. According to one embodiment, a method is implemented on an EV charger for determining relative position of a mobile device to an EV charger in accordance with embodiments of the present disclosure. The method includes receiving known location data associated with a global position of the EV charger, wherein the known location data has an accuracy better than 10 centimeters, receiving first global navigation satellite system (GNSS) timestamped data associated with the EV charger from a first constellation of GNSS satellites, determining first GNSS location data based on the first GNSS timestamped data, and determining first GNSS error data based on the first GNSS location data and the known location data.

Claims (46)

1. A method implemented on at least one computing device, the method comprising:

detecting a presence of a user within a proximity of a home-based electric vehicle (EV) charger;

receiving user information provided by the user;

receiving referral information on a referral person identified by the user;

determining an offset value used to offset a purchase price of the home-based EV charger based on the user information and the referral information, wherein:

the user information includes an assessed value of a physical address associated with the user; and

the referral information includes an assessed value of a physical address associated with the referral person;

determining charging enabled parking space influenced media data based on the user information; and

transmitting the charging enabled parking space influenced media data to a user interface (UI) associated with the home-based EV charger, wherein the home-based EV charger is provided at least partially in response to receiving the user information.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the user information comprises user survey information.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the user survey information is requested during a user EV charger account registration by the user.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the user information comprises user social networking information.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the user social networking information is provided by at least one of an Instagram® account, a YouTube® account, a Facebook® account, a Twitter® account, a TikTok® account, a Pinterest® account, and a Snapchat® account.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the user information comprises user professional networking information.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the user professional networking information is provided by at least one of a LinkedIn® account, a Chamber of Commerce account, a SCORE® account, and a Rotary Club account.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the user information comprises user technical profession organization information.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the user technical profession organization information is provided by at least one of an Association for Computing Machinery ACM® account, a Network Professional Association account, a CompTIA® account, an Association for Women in Computing account, an Association of Information Technology Professionals account, a National Society of Professional Engineers account, an American Association of Engineering Societies account, a Society of Women Engineers account, an International Engineering Consortium account, and an Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE®) account.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the user information includes user purchasing information.

11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the user purchasing information includes user home ownership information and the user home ownership information includes a user physical address.

12. The method of claim 11 , wherein determining charging enabled parking space influenced media data is further based on an assessed value of the user physical address.

13. The method of claim 1 , wherein the charging enabled parking space influenced media data comprises at least two of an advertisement, a product promotion, and a product placement.

14. The method of claim 1 , wherein referral information further includes a first portion provided by the user during a user EV charger account registration and a second portion provided by the referral person during a referral EV charger account registration.

15. The method of claim 14 , wherein the user information includes user purchasing information of the user and the referral information includes referral purchasing information of the referral person.

16. The method of claim 1 , wherein the user information is historical user information.

17. The method of claim 1 , wherein the user information is near real time user information.

18. The method of claim 1 , wherein the charging enabled parking space influenced media data includes garage influenced media data.

19. A computing device comprising:

a memory; and

at least one processor configured for:

detecting a presence of a user within a proximity of a home-based electric vehicle (EV) charger;

receiving user information provided by the user;

receiving referral information on a referral person identified by the user;

determining an offset value used to offset a purchase price of the home-based EV charger based on the user information and the referral information, wherein:

the user information includes an assessed value of a physical address associated with the user; and

the referral information includes an assessed value of a physical address associated with the referral person;

determining charging enabled parking space influenced media data based on the user information; and

transmitting the charging enabled parking space influenced media data to a user interface (UI) associated with the EV charger, wherein the home-based EV charger was provided at least partially in response to receiving the user information.

20. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, the non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions to be implemented on at least one computing device including at least one processor, the instructions when executed by the at least one processor cause the at least one computing device to perform a method, the method comprising:

detecting a presence of a user within a proximity of a home-based electric vehicle (EV) charger;

receiving user information provided by the user;

receiving referral information on a referral person identified by the user;

determining an offset value used to offset a purchase price of the home-based EV charger based on the user information and the referral information, wherein:

the user information includes an assessed value of a physical address associated with the user; and

the referral information includes an assessed value of a physical address associated with the referral person;

determining charging enabled parking space influenced media data based on the user information; and

transmitting the charging enabled parking space influenced media data to a user interface (UI) associated with the EV charger, wherein the home-based EV charger was provided at least partially in response to receiving the user information.
