Vehicle theft deterrent utilizing driver identification seatbelt system

1. A driver identification seatbelt system comprising:

at least one first belt with a first coupling member;

a second coupling member configured to couple with the first coupling member; and

at least one of the first coupling member or the second coupling member communicatively coupled with a fingerprint recognition member, the fingerprint recognition member having a fingerprint recognition function,

wherein both the first coupling member and the second coupling member include the fingerprint recognition member.

2. The driver identification seatbelt system as recited in claim 1 , further comprising at least one second belt coupled with the second coupling member.

3. The driver identification seatbelt system as recited in claim 1 , wherein the driver identification seatbelt system has one or more of a normal mode, a protection mode, a service mode, or a collision mode.

4. The driver identification seatbelt system as recited in claim 1 , wherein the fingerprint recognition member is disposed within or adjacent to at least one of the first coupling member to the second coupling member.

5. A driver identification seatbelt system:

at least one first belt with a first coupling member;

a second coupling member configured to couple with the first coupling member;

at least one of the first coupling member or the second coupling member communicatively coupled with a fingerprint recognition member, the fingerprint recognition member having a fingerprint recognition function;

a processor communicatively coupled with the fingerprint recognition member, the processor configured to evaluate whether a detected fingerprint matches a previously stored fingerprint; and

an engine immobilizer communicatively coupled with the processor.

6. The driver identification seatbelt system as recited in claim 5 , further comprising a communications system communicatively coupled with the processor.

7. A method comprising:

detecting and reading a driver fingerprint with a driver identification seatbelt system of a vehicle, the driver identification seatbelt system including a seatbelt system having at least one first belt with a first coupling member, and a second coupling member, the seatbelt system communicatively coupled with a fingerprint recognition member;

evaluating whether the detected fingerprint matches a pre-stored fingerprint;

determining a system mode using the detected fingerprint; and

sending a message to a car owner via V2P channel.

8. The method as recited in claim 7 , further comprising setting the driver identification seatbelt system to a normal mode if the detected fingerprint matches the pre-stored fingerprint.

9. The method as recited in claim 7 , further comprising setting the driver identification seatbelt system to a protective mode if the detected fingerprint does not match the pre-stored fingerprint.

10. The method as recited in claim 9 , further comprising locking the first coupling member with the second coupling member.

11. A method comprising:

detecting and reading a driver fingerprint with a driver identification seatbelt system of a vehicle, the driver identification seatbelt system including a seatbelt system having at least one first belt with a first coupling member, and a second coupling member, the seatbelt system communicatively coupled with a fingerprint recognition member;

evaluating whether detected fingerprint matches a pre-stored fingerprint; and

determining a system mode using the detected fingerprint; and

determining a velocity of the vehicle.

12. The method as recited in claim 11 , further comprising activating an engine immobilizer and preventing operation of an engine of the vehicle if the velocity of the vehicle is equal to 0 mph or a gear state is in park.

13. The method as recited in claim 11 , further comprising limiting velocity of the vehicle if the velocity of the vehicle is greater than 0 mph.

14. A method comprising:

detecting and reading a driver fingerprint with a driver identification seatbelt system of a vehicle, the driver identification seatbelt system including a seatbelt system having at least one first belt with a first coupling member, and a second coupling member, the seatbelt system communicatively coupled with a fingerprint recognition member;

evaluating whether the detected fingerprint matches a pre-stored fingerprint;

determining a system mode using the detected fingerprint; and

evaluating whether the vehicle has been in a vehicle collision and placing the driver identification seatbelt system into a collision mode if the vehicle collision has been detected.

15. A method comprising:

detecting and reading a driver fingerprint with a driver identification seatbelt system, the driver identification seatbelt system including a seatbelt system having at least one first belt with a first coupling member, and a second coupling member, the seatbelt system further including a fingerprint recognition member;

evaluating whether the detected fingerprint matches a pre-stored fingerprint;

determining a system mode using the detected fingerprint; and

further comprising sending a message to a car owner via V2P channel.

16. A method comprising:

detecting and reading a driver fingerprint with a driver identification seatbelt system, the driver identification seatbelt system including a seatbelt system having at least one first belt with a first coupling member, and a second coupling member, the seatbelt system further including a fingerprint recognition member;

evaluating whether the detected fingerprint matches a pre-stored fingerprint;

determining a system mode using the detected fingerprint;

determining a velocity of a vehicle; and

activating an engine immobilizer and preventing operation of an engine of the vehicle if the velocity of the vehicle is equal to 0 mph or a gear state is in park.
