Abstract
A system and method vehicle dynamic compliance and utilizing multiple vehicle odometer values is disclosed herein. The system comprises a vehicle (210) comprising an on-board computer (232) with a memory (231) having a vehicle identification number (233), a connector plug (235), and an motorized engine (234), a connected vehicle device (130) comprising a processor, a WiFi radio, a BLUETOOTH radio, a memory, and a connector for mating with the connector plug of the vehicle (210), and a mobile device (110) comprising a graphical user interface (335), a processor (310), a WiFi radio (307), a BLUETOOTH radio (306), and a cellular network interface (308).
Claims12
A system for utilizing multiple vehicle odometer values, the system comprising:
- a vehicle comprising an on-board computer with a memory having a vehicle identification number (VIN), a connector plug, a motorized engine, an odometer component from an engine source, an odometer component from a dashboard source, an odometer component from a chassis source, and an odometer component from a transmission source;
- a connected vehicle device (CVD) comprising a processor, a WiFi radio, a BLUETOOTH radio, a memory, and a connector for mating with the connector plug of the vehicle;
- a mobile device comprising a graphical user interface, a processor, a WiFi radio, a BLUETOOTH radio, and a cellular network interface;
- and
- a server;
- wherein each of the odometer component from an engine source, the odometer component from a dashboard source, the odometer component from a chassis source, and the odometer component from a transmission source generates an odometer value;
- wherein the CVD generates a delta value for odometer value relative to a control odometer value;
- wherein the CVD monitors the odometer value from each of the odometer component from an engine source, the odometer component from a dashboard source, the odometer component from a chassis source, and the odometer component from a transmission source;
- wherein the CVD generates a new odometer value for one of the odometer component from an engine source, the odometer component from a dashboard source, the odometer component from a chassis source, and the odometer component from a transmission source, and the CVD modifies the odometer value by the delta value to generate the new odometer value.
A method for utilizing multiple vehicle odometer values, the method comprising:
- generating an odometer value from an odometer component from an engine source of a vehicle;
- generating an odometer value from an odometer component from a dashboard source of the vehicle;
- generating an odometer value from an odometer component from a chassis source of the vehicle;
- generating an odometer value from an odometer component from a transmission source of the vehicle;
- generating a delta value for an odometer value relative to a control odometer value at a CVD, the CVD comprising a processor, a WiFi radio, a BLUETOOTH radio, a memory, and a connector for mating with the connector plug of the vehicle;
- monitoring at the CVD the odometer value from each of the odometer component from an engine source, the odometer component from a dashboard source, the odometer component from a chassis source, and the odometer component from a transmission source;
- generating a new odometer value for one of the odometer component from an engine source, the odometer component from a dashboard source, the odometer component from a chassis source, and the odometer component from a transmission source, and modifying the odometer value by the delta value to generate the new odometer value;
- and
- transmitting to the new odometer value to a server using a mobile device wirelessly connected to the CVD.
