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 ).

Claims (25)

1 . An on-board vehicle system for determining a milage of the vehicle, the system comprising:

a vehicle comprising an on-board computer with a memory, a motorized engine, and a plurality of odometer components from and

a connected vehicle device (CVD) comprising a processor and a radio, the CVD in communication with the on-board computer of the vehicle;

wherein each of the plurality of odometer components 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 plurality of odometer components;

wherein the CVD modifies the odometer value by a delta value to generate a new odometer value to determine the milage of the vehicle.

2 . The system according to claim 1 further comprising a mobile device comprising a graphical user interface, a processor, a WiFi radio, a BLUETOOTH radio, and a cellular network interface.

3 . The system according to claim 1 wherein the control odometer value is from an odometer value of one of the plurality of odometer components.

4 . The system according to claim 1 wherein the plurality of odometer components comprises 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.

5 . A method for determining a milage of a vehicle, the method comprising:

receiving at a connected vehicle device (CVD) a plurality of odometer values from a plurality of odometer components of the vehicle, the CVD comprising a processor and a radio, the CVD in communication with an on-board computer of the vehicle;

generating a delta value for an odometer value relative to a control odometer value at the CVD;

monitoring at the CVD the plurality of odometer components;

modifying the odometer value for one of the plurality of odometer components by a delta value to generate a new odometer value; and

determining the milage of the vehicle based on the new odometer value.

6 . The method according to claim 5 wherein a mobile device connected to the CVD transmits the new odometer value to a server.

7 . The method according to claim 5 wherein the plurality of odometer components comprises 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.

8 . The method according to claim 7 wherein the control odometer value is from an odometer value of 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 sources.

9 . A method for determining a milage of a vehicle, the method comprising:

collecting at an on-board computer of the vehicle a plurality of odometer values from a plurality of odometer components of the vehicle;

generating on the vehicle a delta value for an odometer value relative to a control odometer value;

monitoring on the vehicle the plurality of odometer components;

modifying the odometer value for one of the plurality of odometer components by a delta value to generate a new odometer value; and

determining the milage of the vehicle based on the new odometer value.
