Method and system for utilizing vehicle odometer values and dynamic compliance
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 ).
1. A system for vehicle dynamic compliance with multiple vehicle statutes and regulations, the system comprising:
a vehicle comprising an on-board computer with a memory having a vehicle identification number (VIN), a connector plug, and an motorized engine;
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 a location of the vehicle is determined using a GPS component of the vehicle;
wherein the location of the vehicle is transmitted to the server by the CVD;
wherein the server retrieves a plurality of real-time compliance rules for the location of the vehicle;
wherein the server transmits the plurality of real-time compliance rules to CVD for display on the mobile device.
2. The system according to claim 1 wherein the mobile device is a tablet computer.
3. The system according to claim 1 wherein the plurality of databases comprises at least one of a plurality of State vehicle databases, a plurality of municipal vehicle databases, plurality of county vehicle databases, and a plurality of Federal vehicle databases.
4. The system according to claim 1 wherein the vehicle is a delivery truck.
5. The system according to claim 1 wherein the WiFi network uses an 802.11 communication protocol.
6. The system according to claim 1 wherein the CVD obtains a vehicle identification number (VIN) from the on-board computer and transmits the VIN with the location to the server for verification of the vehicle.
7. A method for vehicle dynamic compliance with multiple vehicle statutes and regulations, the method comprising:
transmitting to a server from a connected vehicle device (CVD) the location of a vehicle determined by a GPS component of the vehicle, 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, the vehicle comprising an on-board computer with a memory having a vehicle identification number (VIN), a connector plug, and an motorized engine;
retrieving at the server a plurality of real-time compliance rules for the location of the vehicle from a plurality of databases; and
transmitting from the server to the CVD the plurality of real-time compliance rules for display on a mobile device.
8. The method according to claim 7 wherein the mobile device is a tablet computer.
9. The method according to claim 7 wherein the plurality of databases comprises at least one of a plurality of State vehicle databases, a plurality of municipal vehicle databases, plurality of county vehicle databases, and a plurality of Federal vehicle databases.
10. The method according to claim 7 wherein the vehicle is a delivery truck.
11. The method according to claim 7 wherein the WiFi network uses an 802.11 communication protocol.
12. The method according to claim 7 wherein the CVD obtains a vehicle identification number (VIN) from the on-board computer and transmits the VIN with the location to the server for verification of the vehicle.
