`LAND VEHICLE SPEED MONITORING SYSTEM
`
`BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
`
`[0001]
`
`This invention relates to systems-that may be used to monitor a
`
`vehicle speed and to alert or warn a vehicle driver when they may be moving
`
`faster than a speed limit. The new speed monitoring system may detect an over
`
`speed limit condition, alert a vehicle driver of the speed, track the time for driver
`
`speed adjustment, and display and record the event.
`
`10
`
`[0002]
`
`Apparatus for detecting land vehicle speeds on roadways may be
`
`known. Most of these systems may be radar based systems. Examples may
`
`include hand held or police car mounted radar transmitter/detectors that measure
`
`a particular vehicle speed and provide a display to a user, such as a police
`
`officer.
`
`This type of apparatus does not alert drivers to over speed limit
`
`conditions and may be principally used to catch speeders for the purpose of
`
`issuing traffic tickets.
`
`[0003]
`
`Variations of this use of radar detection may include portable
`
`roadside apparatus that may have a radar transmitter/receiver and a large
`
`display that may be seen by drivers of land vehicles. This type of apparatus may
`
`serve to inform drivers of their vehicle speed and over speed limit conditions.
`
`The apparatus may also be used by a police officer positioned in a vehicle to
`
`view the apparatus and stop speeding vehicles to issue traffic tickets.
`
`SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
`
`[0004]
`
`The present invention is directed to systems for monitoring a land
`
`vehicle speed relative to a speed limit. An electronic transmit and receiver
`
`apparatus, a position location apparatus and a date and time apparatus may be
`
`positioned in the land vehicle and may be in communication with a speed and
`
`speed limit computation device. The speed and speed limit computation device

`
`Petitioners Ex. 1002 Page 4
`
`

`

`may have an output to an alert display device and an output device to identify
`
`over speed limit conditions.
`
`I
`
`[0005]
`
`These and other features, aspects and advantages of the present
`
`invention will become better understood with reference to the following drawings,
`
`description and claims.
`
`BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
`
`[0006]
`
`Figure 1 illustrates a schematic diagram of a system according to
`
`10
`
`an embodiment of the invention;
`
`Figure 2 illustrates a perspective view of a vehicle with monitoring
`
`elements according to an embodiment of the invention.

`
`DETAILED DESCRIPTION
`
`[0007]
`
`The following detailed description represents the best currently
`
`contemplated modes for carrying out the invention. The description is not to be
`
`taken in a limiting sense, but is made merely for the purpose of illustrating the
`
`general principles of the invention.
`
`[0008]
`
`Referring to Figures 1 and 2, a land vehicle speed monitoring
`
`system 10 may have vehicle elements 12 to detect speed, monitor time and
`
`detect location. There may also be displays and recording devices. The system
`
`10 may also have detectable markers 14 that may be detected by an
`
`electromagnetic wave signal, such as a radar signal, that may be transmitted by
`
`a vehicle element 12 for return and receiving to measure speed of a vehicle 16.
`
`Depending on the signal
`
`transmitter/receiver of a vehicle element 12 other
`
`information may be obtained, for example, a marker identification code.
`
`30
`
`[0009]
`
`The vehicle 16 may have an electromagnetic transmitting and
`
`receiving apparatus that for purposes of the disclosure may be a radar apparatus
`
`Petitioners Ex. 1002 Page 5
`
`Petitioners Ex. 1002 Page 5
`
`

`

`20, but may be other suitable transmit and receive apparatus that may be used to
`
`determine speed of a vehicle 16 relative to a roadway marker 26. The radar
`
`apparatus 20 may transmit a signal that detects transponders 22 located in
`
`roadway markers 26, such as, speed limit signs, road work and school signs,
`
`accident warning signs, road hazard signs such as ice conditions, and other
`
`roadway markers 26. The vehicle elements 12 may also include detector
`
`apparatus for detecting markers 26 imbedded in roadways.
`
`[0010]
`
`The roadway markers 26 may be passive devices or radar targets
`
`24, or they may be powered to transmit
`
`information, such as a marker
`
`identification number, location, speed limit and other information. Transmission
`
`of information from a marker 26 may be activated by detection of a radar 20
`
`signal or other transmitted electromagnetic signal and may be decoded in a
`
`transponder data decoder device 28.
`
`[0011]
`
`The vehicle elements 12 may include a position location apparatus
`
`30, such as a Global Position System or GPS receiver. There may also be a
`
`date and time apparatus 32 that may be independent or may use the GPS.
`
`In
`
`the case of the use of passive devices, the radar apparatus 20 may detect a
`
`vehicle speed at a marker 26, and the position location apparatus 30 may detect
`
`vehicle location and determine a speed limit for the location.
`
`10
`
`15
`
`20
`
`[0012]
`
`Whether an active transponder 22 or passive target 24 is available,
`
`the system 10 may have a speed and speed limit computation device to use the
`
`speed and speed limit detected at a particular marker 26 to determine a vehicle
`
`16 over speed limit condition. An alert may be signaled to the vehicle 16 driver
`
`and the amount of time the vehicle 16 is in the over speed condition may be
`
`25
`
`monitored by the date and time apparatus 32.
`
`[0013]
`The vehicle elements 12 may include a processor device 34 that
`may include the-speed and speed limit computation device. The processor
`
`device 34 may use the speed, speed limit and time information to determine
`
`whether a traffic ticket should be issued for a particular location for a particular
`
`3O
`
`vehicle 16. As an example, if a vehicle 16 may be detected as speeding, after
`
`the driver has been alerted to the condition, the processor device 34 may allow
`
`Petitioners Ex. 1002 Page 6
`
`Petitioners Ex. 1002 Page 6
`
`

`

`10 seconds for correction of the over speed condition to a within speed limit
`
`condition.
`
`If the driver may not correct an overspeed condition in the time
`
`allowed, a traffic ticket may be issued.
`
`[0014]
`
`The vehicle elements 12 may include display devices 40, audio
`
`devices 42, memory devices 44 and printers 46. There may be a display to
`
`indicate speed, speed limit, time and location. There may also be displays. such
`
`as red lights 48 exterior and. interior to the vehicle. Lights may be positioned on
`
`the roof of a vehicle to indicate to others an overspeed condition and that a
`
`vehicle may be slowing. There may also be an alert light on the processor
`
`device 34 or on a dashboard for visibility for a driver. There may be an audio
`
`device on the processor device 34 or dash board to alert a driver to an over
`speed condition.
`
`[0015]
`
`The same information as may be displayed and additional data may
`
`be recorded on a memory device 44.
`
`Information may also be output on a printer
`
`46 and traffic tickets may be output on a printer 46. Law endorsement agencies
`
`50 may be enabled to interrogate a communication device 36 of the vehicle
`
`elements 12 to determine if any tickets have been issued to a vehicle 16. A
`
`spool of paper may be used in a printer to maintain a printed record internal to
`
`10
`
`15
`
`the vehicle elements 12 that may be removed and replaced as needed.
`
`20
`
`[0016]
`
`Use of the system 10 may provide notice to drivers who may be
`
`speeding, allow time for correction of speed, and issue traffic tickets that are not
`
`considered traps without the need for police officers at the speeders location.
`
`This system may encourage drivers to drive at safe speeds.
`
`[0017]
`While the invention has been particularly shown and described with
`respect to the illustrated embodiments thereof,
`it will be understood by those
`
`25
`
`skilled in the art that the fOregoing and other changes in form and details may be
`
`made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.

`

`PROTECTING YOUR INVENTION OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES
`
`Since the rights granted by a US. patent extend only throughout the territory of the United States and have
`no effect in a foreign country, an inventor who wishes patent protection in another country must apply for a
`patent in a specific country or in regional patent offices. Applicants may wish to consider the filing of an
`international application under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT). An international (PCT) application
`generally has the same effect as a regular national patent application in each PCT-member country. The
`PCT process simplifies the filing of patent applications on the same invention in member countries, but
`does not result in a grant of "an international patent" and does not eliminate the need of applicants to file
`additional documents and fees in countries where patent protection is desired.
`
`Almost every country has its own patent law, and a person desiring a patent in a particular country must
`make an application for patent in that country in accordance with its particular laws. Since the laws of many
`countries differ in various respects from the patent law of the United States, applicants are advised to seek
`guidance from specific foreign countries to ensure that patent rights are not lost prematurely.
`
`Applicants also are advised that in the case of inventions made in the United States, the Director of the
`USPTO must issue a license before applicants can apply for a patent in a foreign country. The filing of a US.
`patent application serves as a request for a foreign filing license. The application's filing receipt contains
`further information and guidance as to the status of applicant's license for foreign filing.
`
`Applicants may wish to consult the USPTO booklet, "General Information Concerning Patents" (specifically,
`the section entitled "Treaties and Foreign Patents") for more information on timeframes and deadlines for
`filing foreign patent applications. The guide is available either by contacting the USPTO Contact Center at
`800-786-9199, or it can be viewed on the USPTO website at
`http://www.uspto.gov/web/offices/pac/doc/generaI/index.html.
`
`For information on preventing theft of your intellectual property (patents, trademarks and copyrights), you
`may wish to consult the US. Government website, http://www.stopfakes.gov. Part of a Department of
`Commerce initiative, this website includes self-help "toolkits" giving innovators guidance on how to protect
`intellectual property in specific countries such as China, Korea and Mexico. For questions regarding patent
`enforcement issues, applicants may call the US. Government hotline at 1-866-999-HALT (1-866-999-4158).
`
`LICENSE FOR FOREIGN FILING UNDER
`
`Title 35, United States Code, Section 184
`
`Title 37, Code of Federal Regulations, 5.11 & 5.15

`he applicant has been granted a license under 35 U.S.C. 184,
`FILING LICENSE GRANTED" followed by a date appears on this form. Such licenses are issued in all
`applications where the conditions for issuance of a license have been met, regardless of whether or not a
`license may be required as set forth in 37 CFR 5.15. The scope and limitations of this license are set forth in
`37 CFR 5.15(a) unless an earlier license has been issued under 37 CFR 5.15(b). The license is subject to
`revocation upon written notification. The date indicated is the effective date of the license, unless an earlier
`license of similar scope has been granted under 37 CFR 5.13 or 5.14.
`
`This license is to be retained by the licensee and may be used at any time on or after the effective date
`thereof unless it is revoked. This license is automatically transferred to any related applications(s) filed under
`37 CFR 1.53(d). This license is not retroactive.
`
`The grant of a license does not in any way lessen the responsibility of a licensee for the security of the
`subject matter as imposed by any Government contract or the provisions of existing laws relating to
`espionage and the national security or the export of technical data. Licensees should apprise themselves of
`current regulations especially with respect to certain countries, of other agencies, particularly the Office of
