trip."

"We are looking at a new paradigm," said co-principal investigator Pierluigi Pisu, assistant professor of mechanical engineering. "We're providing the drivers with alternative routes to maximize fuel economy instead of just improving travel time."

The researchers expect it has the potential to reduce U.S. reliance on petroleum and other greenhouse gas-producing fuels, reduce pollution, save energy, minimize the long-term cost of living expenses and improve driving conditions. Researchers will collaborate with Ford for real-world evaluation of the system integration and plan to implement results after the completion of the project.
