Title: Radio points-essense (rpe)
Inventor: SITTI ANANI HUDEMA
IPC: G06Q30/02
Filed: 2013-10-24
Abstract: Le concept Radio points-essence (RPE) consiste à attribuer des points-essence (permettant des réductions sur l'essence) aux automobilistes pris dans les embouteillages et qui écoutent une station radio donnée. Le nombre de points attribués est proportionnel au temps passé dans la zone d'embouteillage. Le RPE permettra ainsi d'atténuer la mauvaise humeur de l'automobiliste bloqué dans les embouteillages (puisque le temps perdu se transforme en gain d'essence) et offrira en même temps un avantage compétitif à la station radio qui l'utilisera. De plus, appliqué à grande échelle, le RPE aura un impact positif sur la sécurité routière. Même si le concept de points-essence existe déjà. il n'a jamais été associé de cette manière à l'écoute de la radio sur le réseau routier, plus particulièrement dans les zones d'embouteillage.
