Abstract
An approach for implementing a vehicle data exchange platform for identifying vehicle sensor data and providing methods for storage and exchange of the sensor data. The approach includes detecting a presence of a vehicle within a predetermined space, wherein the vehicle is configured with one or more sensors for collecting sensor data. The approach also includes configuring one or more sensor interfaces associated with the predetermined space to retrieve the sensor data from the one or more sensors, the vehicle, or a combination thereof. Further, the approach includes processing the sensor data to determine a storage location for the sensor data.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- determining, by one or more devices, identification information associated with a vehicle;
- querying, by the one or more devices, for sensor location information, data port location information, or a combination thereof for the vehicle based on the identification information;
- detecting, by the one or more devices, a presence of the vehicle within a predetermined space, wherein the vehicle is configured with one or more sensors for collecting sensor data, wherein the one or more sensors include a wired sensor;
- configuring, by the one or more devices, one or more sensor interfaces associated with the predetermined space to retrieve the sensor data from the one or more sensors, the vehicle, or a combination thereof,
- wherein the one or more sensor interfaces are configured to retrieve the sensor data based on the sensor location information, the data port location information, or a combination thereof,
- the configuring including positioning a robotic connection associated with the wired sensor to configure the one or more sensor interfaces;
- and
- processing, by the one or more devices, the sensor data to determine a storage location for the sensor data.
An apparatus comprising a processor configured to:
- determine identification information associated with a vehicle;
- query for sensor location information, data port location information, or a combination thereof for the vehicle based on the identification information;
- detect a presence of the vehicle within a predetermined space, wherein the vehicle is configured with one or more sensors for collecting sensor data,
- wherein the one or more sensors include a wired sensor;
- configure one or more sensor interfaces associated with the predetermined space to retrieve the sensor data from the one or more sensors, the vehicle, or a combination thereof,
- wherein the one or more sensor interfaces are configured to retrieve the sensor data based on the sensor location information, the data port location information, or a combination thereof,
- wherein the processor is further configured to, when configuring the one or more sensor interfaces, position a robotic connection associated with the wired sensor to configure the one or more sensor interfaces;
- and
- process the sensor data to determine a storage location for the sensor data.
A system comprising:
- one or more wired sensors for collecting sensor data associated with a vehicle;
- one or more sensor interfaces for retrieving the sensor data;
- and
- a platform configured to:
- detect, based on the sensor data, a presence of the vehicle within a predetermined space;
- configure the one or more sensor interfaces to retrieve the sensor data from the one or more sensors, the vehicle, or a combination thereof, the configuring including positioning a robotic connection associated with the one or more wired sensors;
- and
- process the sensor data to determine a storage location for the sensor data.
