Mobile device tools for authenticated smart vehicle pairing and wireless routing configuration and methods of use

A configuration system comprising:

• a smart vehicle router associated with router information stored in a router file for the smart vehicle router, the router information including a unique authentication certificate configured to permit a one-to-one pairing such that another pairing is not available once the unique authentication certification is issued, the smart vehicle router comprising a first subscriber identify module (“SIM”) card and a second SIM card, the first SIM card configured for operation with an Internet of Things (“IOT”) controller of the smart vehicle, and the second SIM card configured to operate as an authenticated access point to provide wireless routing;
• a smart mobile device comprising a software application tool;
• a processor communicatively coupled to the smart mobile device;
• a memory communicatively coupled to the processor;
• and
• machine readable instructions stored in the memory, wherein the machine readable instructions cause the configuration system to perform at least the following when executed by the processor
• receive information of an identification component associated with the smart vehicle router of a smart vehicle using the software application tool of the smart mobile device, the identification component associated with the router information stored in the router file,
• apply an authentication algorithm to the information of the identification component, the authentication algorithm configured to provision the software application tool with the unique authentication certificate,
• authenticate the smart vehicle as an authenticated smart vehicle based on the information of the identification component and the authentication algorithm,
• pair the authenticated smart vehicle with the software application tool in the one-to-one pairing based on the unique authentication certificate and the router information such that another pairing is not available even when the provisioned software application tool is disconnected from the authenticated smart vehicle and the unique authentication certificate is not available to share with another software application tool,
• automatically configure the software application tool on the smart mobile device to retrieve data associated with the paired authenticated smart vehicle based on the unique authentication certificate, and
• control the IOT controller of the authenticated smart vehicle and the wireless routing of the authenticated smart vehicle through the software application tool paired with the authenticated smart vehicle.

A method to pair a smart vehicle and a software application tool of a smart mobile device;

• the smart vehicle comprising a smart vehicle router associated with router information stored in a router file for the smart vehicle router, the router information including a unique authentication certificate configured to permit a one-to-one pairing such that another pairing is not available once the unique authentication certification is issued,
• the method comprising:
• receiving information of an identification component associated with the smart vehicle router of the smart vehicle using the software application tool of the smart mobile device, the identification component associated with the router information stored in the router file,
• applying an authentication algorithm to the information of the identification component, the authentication algorithm configured to provision the software application tool with the unique authentication certificate,
• authenticating the smart vehicle as an authenticated smart vehicle based on the information of the identification component and the authentication algorithm,
• pairing the authenticated smart vehicle with the software application tool in the one-to-one pairing based on the unique authentication certificate and the router information such that another pairing is not available even when the provisioned software application tool is disconnected from the authenticated smart vehicle and the unique authentication certificate is not available to share with another software application tool, and
• automatically configuring the software application tool on the smart mobile device to retrieve data associated with the paired authenticated smart vehicle based on the unique authentication certificate.
